Act of Desperation Lyrics
A bitter revelation
Is a product of ambition
No matter what you say
I'm a stranger to submission
But what I see before me
Is a element of passion
In my recognition
Is the fallout of compassion
Taken life for granted
Never struggle just to find
Illusions being planted
Deep inside of my mind
It's an invitation
To the corner of my mind
Act of desperation
To see what I can find
Here's our destination
So come on step inside
Take my hand and you will
Discover what I hide
Deciphering enigmas
Is a part of who you are
Identify the secrets of the eagle and the compass star
So let it be proclaimed that I'm a slave to revelation
Show me your compassion
Be a part of our creation
One dark obsession
Irreversible denials
I read about one's guidance
Once together, never
It's an invitation
To the corner of my mind
Act of desperation
To see what I can find
Here's our destination
So come on step inside
Take my hand and you will
It's an invitation
To the corner of my mind
Act of desperation
To see what I can find
Here's our destination
So come on step inside
Take my hand and you will
Discover what I hide
Is a product of ambition
No matter what you say
I'm a stranger to submission
Is a element of passion
In my recognition
Is the fallout of compassion
Never struggle just to find
Illusions being planted
Deep inside of my mind
To the corner of my mind
Act of desperation
To see what I can find
Here's our destination
So come on step inside
Take my hand and you will
Discover what I hide
Is a part of who you are
Identify the secrets of the eagle and the compass star
Show me your compassion
Be a part of our creation
Irreversible denials
I read about one's guidance
Once together, never
To the corner of my mind
Act of desperation
To see what I can find
Here's our destination
So come on step inside
Take my hand and you will
To the corner of my mind
Act of desperation
To see what I can find
Here's our destination
So come on step inside
Take my hand and you will
Discover what I hide

A quick search on "eagle and the compass star" turned up Wikipedia's blurb on the CIA logo. Not sure if that has anything to do with anything.
I bet it's about a spy (probably from the CIA, per my other comment) seducing her target because she's run out of other options (an "act of desperation / to see what I can find") and falling in love with him.
