Pretty difficult to decipher what the lyrics actually are, let alone what they mean. Without looking into any hidden meaning, it sounds and feels like absolute surrender to love/desire. The song is a section of She Bangs The Drums played backwards with forwards vocals. The Roses had it played as their intro to the Anti Clause 28 gig in 1988. This goes right up alongside Guernica and Simone for soul-stirring potency. Something about the backwards songs just really connects (can't really get along with Full Fathom Five myself though). Simone especially is worth checking out if you havn't heard it.
