Those aren't the lyrics in the slightest. There are real lyrics to this song: they're printed in the sleevenotes of the EP: Endrosis-osis Lotella-ella Endrosis-osis Vivigeossa-ossa Meliteae phoebus hyala phoebus hyala cloeyessa Meliteae phoebus hyala phoebus hyala nossinussa Sesia-ia Sultitan-itan Sesia-ia Totella-ella Hymeae saturnia hymeae nossinussa Vacua venessula vacua nekitella Tuphia vanessa venessa enovalla Sacyare oponalla oponalla hyniassa It's nothing more than a list of Latin butterfly names, arranged as beautifully as the music itself. |

| Massive Attack – Angel Lyrics | 19 years ago |
| Agree re obsession, not necessarily a 'bad' obsession, but an obsessive kind of love. The lyrics alone don't convey this, you need the power, sultry bass that accompanies it, particularly to get the sense of the increasingly desperate sounding 'love you love you love you...' | |
| Throwing Muses – Devil's Roof Lyrics | 19 years ago |
| Perhaps the 'two heads' are mania ('one free') and depression ('one sticky'). 'The devil's moon' being a reference to what was once referred to as lunacy. | |

I've always assumed this is about a panic attack (or similar experience) in a public place, and the subsequent images going through your mind, almost as a comedown. Particularly well portrayed, as peak of the attack is often invisible to outsiders, and the images increasingly ridiculous, but confined to yourself. My experience, anyway. |
