Candy
Pony Girl Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

You said, "Don't worry now, there's nobody else
I want to feel with" (I want to feel)
Watch how your body and mine collide
Nothing between us: just you and I

Leave the faith that tries to answer
Leave faith in others
Leave the faith that tries to answer

Leave faith in others

I'm a believer, do I get a prize?
Transmigration? Or me in you?
I listen as you stare right through me,
Inside that little black dress

Sheer enough to share the line
That draws your perfect oscillating shape
Sheer enough to let me wander
Across your holy state

Can I stay forever?
Everyday?
I'll never leave this place

You said, "Don't stop until I reach the sky"
Please keep me up there, please keep me up
Our first communion, both knees on the ground
My host in your care, without the hands

Leave the faith that tries to answer
Leave faith in others
Leave the faith that tries to answer
Leave faith in others

The Eucharist caressing my tongue inside,
I'd eat it all day, I'd eat it all

The last meal left you full and so satisfied,
No room for candy, Just you and I

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Pony Girl's song "Candy" are evocative and poetic, imbued with a sense of longing and passion. The song appears to be about a deep connection between two people, one that transcends the mundanity of everyday life and touches on the divine. The first lines of the song set the tone for this connection, with the singer being assured that there is no one else the other person wants to feel with. This is followed by a description of the physicality of their relationship, with bodies colliding and nothing coming between them. These lines are sensual and intimate, painting a picture of two people lost in each other's embrace.

The song then takes a turn towards the spiritual, with the singer questioning whether they will be rewarded for their belief in this connection. The lines "I'm a believer, do I get a prize? Transmigration? Or me in you?" suggest a desire for some kind of transcendence, an escape from the limitations of the physical world. The singer seems to be enraptured by the other person, with lines like "Sheer enough to share the line / That draws your perfect oscillating shape" and "Inside that little black dress / Sheer enough to let me wander / Across your holy state" suggesting an almost religious reverence for the other person.

The final lines of the song are powerful and poignant, with the singer describing a communion with the other person that leaves them feeling full and satisfied, with no need for anything else. This could be read as a metaphor for the completeness of their connection, or as a literal description of their physical intimacy. Either way, it is a beautiful and evocative image that captures the essence of the song.
