When there are no cures and no remedies, we look for comfort in the things and people we love. OH DESIRE is about coping mechanisms (some good, some not) and sure seems relevant these days.
It's a fervent expression of longing that starts with an incessant pulse and builds towards a dreamy release.

OH DESIRE
Oh desire
The hooks are in
Your pull is strong
So take me in
I need something only you can give
Let it come, let it come, let it come
To set my spirit loose
All I need is you
I'm giving up the fight
All I want is you
Whatever the price
No cures, no remedies
You're the only comfort that I need
Oh desire
So hard to quit
Just say the word
And I submit
Like firewood waiting to be lit
Let it come, let it come, let it come
To set my spirit free
You're all I need to see
I’m giving up the fight
All I want is you
Whatever the price
No cures, no remedies
You're the only comfort that I need
All I need is you
I'm giving up the fight
All I want is you
Whatever the price
No cures, no remedies
You're the only comfort that I need
