Like a Snake - Background & Lyrics

BAKGRUND

Texten till Like a Snake skrevs samtidigt som jag lyssnade på en loop oavbrutet. Jag drogs in i den hypnotiska rytmen och uppfattade den som sensuell, farlig och med en hint av orientalisk mystik. I mitt sinne såg jag en orm – smidig, förförisk och oberäknelig – och en man driven av begär.

Låten handlar om maktspel i en relation, där båda parter utövar kontroll över varandra, men också om att gemensamt finna en väg till njutning. Det är en balansgång mellan dominans och underkastelse, där gränser utforskas och överskrids i takt med musiken.

Men Like a Snake är inte bara en berättelse om passion och kontroll – den handlar också om dans. Rörelsen, rytmen och samspelet mellan kroppar är centrala element. Låtrader som "Hard rocking, moving it from up to down" och "Do you need a hand, I can be your guide" är avsiktligt dubbeltydiga och kan tolkas både fysiskt och emotionellt.

Detta är en låt som inbjuder till att släppa taget, låta instinkterna styra och förlora sig i ögonblicket – precis som en orm som rör sig smidigt genom natten.

BACKGROUND

The lyrics for Like a Snake were written while I was listening to a loop endlessly. The hypnotic rhythm pulled me in, and I perceived it as sensual, dangerous, and tinged with an oriental influence. In my mind, I envisioned a snake—sleek, seductive, and unpredictable—and a man driven by desire.

The song explores themes of power and control within a relationship, where both partners exert influence over each other while simultaneously seeking mutual pleasure. It’s a delicate balance between dominance and submission, where boundaries are explored and crossed in sync with the music.

But Like a Snake isn’t just about passion and control—it’s also about dance. Movement, rhythm, and the interplay between bodies are central elements. Lyrics like "Hard rocking, moving it from up to down" and "Do you need a hand, I can be your guide" are intentionally ambiguous, open to both physical and emotional interpretation.

This is a song that invites you to let go, follow your instincts, and lose yourself in the moment—just like a snake gliding effortlessly through the night.

LYRICS - LIKE A SNAKE

I’ve seen you do it When you’re all alone I’m only saying this 'Cause you were like a stone Hard rocking moving it from up to down Smooth talking for your ears from dusk til’ dawn Do you need a hand? I can be your guide Do you need me now? To feel the highest high? Because I’m like a snake I move to the beat And bite if I want I’m so bitter-sweet So bitter-sweet

Noone can know this Our secret play So hush now mister And watch me sway

Hard rocking moving it from up to down Smooth talking for your ears from dusk til’ dawn Do you need a hand? I can be your guide Do you need me now? To feel the highest high? Because I’m like a snake I move to the beat And bite if I want I’m so bitter-sweet So bitter-sweet I ain’t talking ‘bout love I’m talking ‘bout zzzzz…that’s hot! Do you need a hand? I can be your guide Do you need me now? To feel the highest high? Because I’m like a snake I move to the beat And bite if I want I’m so bitter-sweet So bitter-sweet Like a Snake
