Desire
Bass Astral x Igo Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
She steals my power.
She sold my soul.
She controls my mind.
Paradise once lost
Don't kill desire.
But there is a question I can't knock it off my mind.
And I guess that I don't really wanna know.
Why she controls me?
I thought that we could fly.
Why she's so lovely?
And I guess that I don't really wanna know.
She keep on blowing my mind.
She is just that kind a girl. /
Now I am stuck in the days
When love was fine.
Yeah, mind in the clouds
And everything best
It is given out.
Now she's gone
And I'm alone.
And there is a question I can't knock it off my mind.
Why she's so lovely?
And I guess that I don't really wanna know.
Why she controls me?
I thought that we could fly.
Why she's so lovely?
And I guess that I don't really wanna know.
She keep on blowing my mind.
She is just that kind a girl. /
My girl.
She is just that kind a girl. /
In "Desire," Bass Astral x Igo sing about a complicated love affair that has left the singer feeling lost and alone. The lyrics describe a woman who has stolen the singer's power, sold his soul, and controls his mind. Despite the paradise he once had, the singer cannot let go of his desire for this woman, and he is stuck in a state of confusion over why she has such a hold on him. The chorus repeats the line, "Why she's so lovely? And I guess that I don't really wanna know," suggesting that the singer is aware that this woman is not good for him but cannot help but be drawn to her.
The second verse describes the aftermath of the relationship, with the singer reminiscing about the days when love was good and he was happy. He is now alone, and again cannot shake the feeling of confusion over why this woman had such an effect on him.
