    Story Behind the Song
    This is a completely updated and transmogrifried version of Ecstasy which started out as a slow-jam, morphed into a punky power-pop number and then got completely reworked into its present form. I wanted to try to make something in the vein of The Sea and Cake. It came out a bit more hyperactive and impassioned than their music, but I'm happy all the same.

    Lyrics
    Drag out hopes for something more
    Than little hints reveal
    The line of skin beneath the hem
    That little glimpses steal

    Imagination winds its way
    In darkened corners where they sway
    And grimy with the stains of love
    Hidden from the eyes above

    Melting away in a sea of bodies
    Locking out the world around

    Something out of nothing
    Electric are the times
    Ecstatic connection
    A merging of two minds

    The feedback loop not understood
    But feeling just the way it should
    Every little detail seen
    Flows so naturally

    Press closer now, press all around
    Becoming movement and pure sound

    Ecstatic connection, electric expression
    Flowing with the music, becoming the movement
