A concept track on addiction...
I loathe your touch
Cold cold cold cold
So cold cold cold cold
I loathe your touch
The fire path your fingers trace
That keeps me addicted to you
It leaves me flushed
Grounded like a dying bird
Thirsting for your fire trail
For lips so lush
As you feast on my last breath
Plunge me into your depths
Till it’s all too much
And I can’t but surrender
Devoured by your hunger oh
Claw slap knead scratch
Bite kiss stroke lick
Struck down I drown quick
you leave my heart bloody
About the track
This is a personal, concept track. It started with a conversation on the topic of 'hate to love' and focuses on the idea of addiction as one thing we 'hate to love', with the lyrics and visuals largely driven by my sub-conscious.
The visuals are symbolic and here the substance of addiction is seen as a vampire lover. The mask represents impaired perception. The splashes of red are the life in our doomed heroine - life that has been 'sucked out/bled out' by the end.
The lyrics and visuals deal with the dichotomy of addiction, where it seems by turns seductive and repulsive, alluring and disturbing, but ultimately destructive if left unchecked. I did the artwork for the music video in 3D.
