Erotic Asphyxiation
Seductive Desires Unveiled: The Coward Robert Ford's Intoxicating Tale
Lyrics
Meet me in the alleyway
Setting up a clandestine meeting in an alleyway.
We can go where no one sees
Desire for privacy and seclusion from others.
Hold me down deeper
Expressing a desire for intense physical connection.
'Til my face goes weak
Describing a profound emotional experience, possibly overwhelming.
I don't wanna be free
Rejecting the idea of freedom, suggesting a longing for connection.
That kind of talk is cheap
Dismissing the value of mere words or promises.
I don't wanna be free
Reiterating a desire not to be free, emphasizing the rejection of independence.
That kind of talk doesn't feed the family
Connecting personal choices to the responsibility of providing for a family.
Meet me in the alleyway
Repeating the setting of a secretive meeting in an alley.
We can pop rocks away
Suggesting the use of substances ("pop rocks") to enhance the experience.
White lines in front of me
Reference to drug use, possibly cocaine ("white lines").
Gonna blow where I see
Expressing an intention to indulge in the effects of the drugs.
I don't wanna be free
Reiterating the rejection of freedom.
That kind of talk is cheap
Reiterating the devaluation of empty words or promises.
I son't wanna be free
Repeating the rejection of freedom for a stronger connection.
That kind of talk doesn't feed the family
Linking personal choices to the responsibility of providing for a family.
I don't wanna be free
Repeating the refusal of freedom, reinforcing a desire for connection.
I'm gonna scrape the inside of me
Suggesting a self-destructive behavior or a metaphorical internal exploration.
I don't wanna be free
Repeating the rejection of freedom.
I wanna be brought to my knees
Expressing a desire for submission or vulnerability.
