Catch and Release

Pure seduction, beautiful, intense, and raw. I can picture it playing out across my mind like a music video on a movie screen.

From the first few lines, I see the speaker approaching a girl at a party, a girl who looks innocent but completely enticing. He engages her in conversation, and quickly makes his intentions clear. He wants her, to fulfill his sexual fantasies, and he can see that though she's a virgin, that she's pretending she doesn't want it, she secretly wants it very much. He's trying to coax her out of her comfort zone, possibly as they're already on their way out the door together, trying to encourage her to get excited about what they're going to do.

"Pardon me Want to live in a fantasy Quietly Show you everything you'll ever need I hope you'll take it I know you're faking just a little bit Come on and taste it Just get excited 'cause you're giving it"

These three lines are him telling her to relax, to embrace the way she'll feel when they make love, because she'll be someone new when they're through. "Catch and release the lure above" could mean he's telling her to just grab hold of what she knows she wants deep down and let go of her inhibitions.

"Come and see How the wind in your hair will feel differently Catch and release the lure above"

This verse seems to indicate that they are now in the midst of sex, and he's saying to her, "I knew you wanted this, so there's no point in continuing to pretend you didn't." The last two lines may also be a reference to oral sex.

"Here we are In a backwater overflow Later on don't say I didn't tell you so Maybe I didn't but you're taking it Knew you were faking just a little bit Now that you taste it No need to fight it 'cause you're giving it"

He's marveling at how easy it was to convince her, and is asking her to note the way she feels now that she's lost her virginity. Perhaps he is trying to talk himself out of feeling something more than lust for her.

"Follow me down the streams of sweat on your body Can't believe the lure was enough Do you see how the wind in your hair now feels differently Catch and release the lure above"

Now that the night is over, he's left with a strange sort of realization that he may actually like her, and is wondering to himself if he shouldn't have just left it alone, because now their chance at an actual relationship with each other has been blown by jumping into bed straight away. He's hoping that what they had that night was worth the unexpected pain he's going through as they part in the morning.

"And who knows "And how this feeling grows Was it truly worth, truly worth the starting And who knows Why the engine's blown Hope it's truly worth, truly worth the parting""
