about someone comparing themself to orpheus & eurydice and sweet talking to charm; in Hozier’s own words:
“There’s all these lofty notions of … true love, and lofty tales and kind of romantic language is used in the verses. And the chorus just admits to, like, “I’m only using this language to distract from the fact that I’m trying to seduce you here, for fear that you find out how I’m imagining you.””
