Lyrics
Why don't we hush our voices and speak with our hips?
Proposing a shift from verbal communication to physical expression.
Keep at bay these anxious lips.
Advocating for restraint in spoken words driven by anxiety.
Our intentions conveyed with these kissing palms.
Expressing intentions through tactile contact using hands.
Traverse these curves, recite their psalms.
Suggesting exploration of physical attributes with a religious reference ("psalms").
All traces of humanity have gone astray.
Describing a loss of humanity or morality.
Tonight we'll give in to our animal ways.
Embracing primal instincts and abandoning societal norms.
There won't be a witness, as the moon hides her face.
Ensuring privacy for intimate actions, symbolized by the hidden moon.
Stars flee from the sky,
Depicting a disrupted celestial scene as the night becomes tainted.
As the night is disgraced and our innocence dies.
Describing the demise of innocence in the face of night's disgrace.
We get down to our most basic form,
Returning to a primal, basic state devoid of societal constructs.
Never as pure as the day we were born.
Highlighting the impurity acquired since birth.
We can't control this carnal need,
Acknowledging the uncontrollable nature of carnal desires.
To go numb to the world, embrace this ancient deed.
Expressing a desire to escape the world and embrace primal instincts.
Eager rays of the sun wish to cleanse the earth of all we've done.
Describing a wish for renewal through the sun's rays.
To speak of love would leave a bitter taste.
Rejecting love, which is considered distasteful.
To offer more than lust would be a waste.
Valuing lust over emotions, considering anything more as wasteful.
There is beauty in using hands to see.
Finding beauty in tactile exploration, implying a sensory experience.
Why don't we hush our voices and speak with our hips?
Reiterating the preference for non-verbal communication.
Keep at bay these anxious lips.
Encouraging the suppression of anxious words in favor of physical expression.
Our intentions conveyed by these kissing palms.
Repeating the idea of conveying intentions through physical touch.
Traverse these curves, recite their psalms.
Re-emphasizing the exploration of physical attributes with a religious tone.
Breaths are short, and fingers trace.
Describing physical intimacy with breathlessness and tactile sensation.
Keep feelings at arm's length. We're better off that way.
Advocating emotional distance for a perceived improvement.
We focus on our instincts and hide from the day.
Focusing on primal instincts and avoiding exposure to daylight.
Try to find the secret to prolonging the night.
Seeking ways to extend the darkness, possibly to prolong the intimate moment.
If we move slowly we may stay the light.
Suggesting that moving slowly may delay the arrival of daylight.
Innocence is the price we pay.
Stating that the loss of innocence is the consequence of these actions.
