about

Dios Mio's trademark of sugary dream-pop with a salty, grunge aftertaste evolves on 'Body', which is written from the perspective of a girl obsessed with an older man and sees Dios Mio really hitting their stride.

Singer Helena Coan says, “I wanted the challenge of writing from another perspective. The themes Lana Del Rey explores of Hollywood, luxury and destruction are really inspiring and as a girl with an obsessive personality, I wanted to play on the thin line between love and obsession and how easy and scary it is to be infatuated and so dependent on another person.”

lyrics

Lyrics:

I speak my last words, and he looks like he hasn’t heard,
Just one look and he’ll turn me to stone.
Medusa is in his eyes and now my friends don’t recognise
The one who sold it all to be his girl.

My body goes, my body it goes,
I fall to floor, fall to the floor,
My body goes, my body it goes,
And I hear him call in the back of my mind.

His love is indestructible, I tried to break it off a thousand times.
But he pulls me back into the dirt, saying baby breathe this won’t hurt,
He knows that I will always be his girl.

My body goes, my body it goes,
I fall to floor, fall to the floor,
My body goes, my body it goes,
And I hear him call in the back of my mind.

He knows too much,
I am undone.
Break me down and build me up,
Break me down and build me up.

My body goes, my body it goes,
I fall to floor, fall to the floor,
My body goes, my body it goes,
And I hear him call in the back of my mind.
