I'm a low hiss telling you something's amiss
Then you hear the sound
I'm the whisper, I can do it better
When I look around
I'm desire itself beaming from the highest shelf
You should really look down
There is no roadblock that I couldn't unlock
I really get around

Seduction, pure function
It's how I learn to speak
Steal your power, in my hour
I will change most everything
I'm not the anthem, I once was an anthem
I sang the song of me
But now there are no anthems
All I can hear is the echo, and the ring
I'm the sly one watching how to get it done
I don't say a word
In a slow dream plannin' up my next scheme
I lay my moves down
I'm the pool boy fillin' you with cool joy
In my melody
I will lay low, figuring out the way to go
Behind the scenes
I'm not the anthem, I once was an anthem
I sang the song of me
But now there are no anthems
All I can hear is the echo, and the ring

Seduction, pure function
It's how I learn to speak
Steal your power, in my hour
I will change most everything
I'm not the anthem, I once was an anthem
I sang the song of me
But now there are no anthems
All I can hear is the echo, and the ring
But I want an anthem, A singular anthem
An answer and a force
To feel rhythm in silence, a weapon, not violence
Power, power, source
