About the song[]

The English electronic duo said to Apple Music:

"Aurora really made this by coming up with these amazing images. Sonics-wise, there are a lot of ideas and a lot of movement. There are moments where it almost feels that whole thing has gone too far, the way it builds and then you’re back down. It's a rolling psychedelic journey, for want of a better word."[2]

Lyrics[]

I cave in, I cave in, I cave in, I cave in
I cave in, I cave in, I cave in, I cave in
I cave in, I cave in, I cave in, I cave in
I cave in, I cave in, I cave in, I cave in
I cave in, I cave in, I cave in, I cave in
I cave in, I cave in

The universe has sent me a message
It came in a flower, encrypted with time, time, time, time
Ecstatic emotions, drive right through me
Pointy like fingernails on a beautiful lady

You should know I lie when I told you I was nervous
Nervous (nervous, nervous)

The universe has sent me a message
It came in a flower, encrypted with time (time, time)
I smelled it with my mind and begin to search for something
Search for something
And search for something in something
And slowly I cave in

I cave in, I cave in, I cave in, I cave in
I cave in, I cave in, I cave in, I cave in
I cave in, I cave in, I cave in, I cave in
I cave in, I cave in
I cave in, I cave in (And we become divine)
I cave in, I cave in (And we become divine)
I cave in, I cave in (And we become divine)
I cave in, I cave in (And we become divine)
I cave in, I cave in (And we become divine)
I cave in, I cave in (And we become divine)
I cave in, I cave in (And we become divine)
I cave in, I cave in (And we become divine)
I cave in, I cave in (And we become divine)

I cave in, I cave in, I cave in, I cave in
I cave in, I cave in, I cave in, I cave in
I cave in, I cave in, I cave in, I cave in
I cave in, I cave in, I cave in, I cave in
I cave in, I cave in, I cave in, I cave in
I cave in, I cave in, I cave in, I cave in
I cave in, I cave in, I cave in, I cave in
I cave in, I cave in, I cave in, I cave in
I cave in, I cave in, I cave in, I cave in
I cave in, I cave in, I cave in
