[Intro]

I feel the rush

Addicted to your touch


[Verse 1]

Big communication, tell me what you want

Translate your vibration, let your body talk to me

Baby love, if you wanna show me what

You've been schemin' up, if you wanna (Let go)

Trust the simulation, don't you let it break

Every stimulation, promise I can take

What you wanna give? Boy, you better show me what

You've been schemin' up


[Pre-Chorus]

You got my heartbeat racin'

My body blazin'


[Chorus]

I feel the rush

Addicted to your touch

Oh, I feel the rush

It's so good, it's so good

I feel the rush

Addicted to your touch

Oh, I feel the rush

It's so good, it's so good


[Post-Chorus]

So good when we slow gravity, so good

It's so good, it's so good

Breathe one, two, three, take all of me, so good

It's so good, it's so good


[Verse 2]

Pass your boy the heatwave , recreate the sun

Take me to the feeling , boy, you know the one

Kiss it when you're done, man, this shit is so much fun

Pocket rocket gun


[Pre-Chorus]

You got my heartbeat (Heartbeat) racin' (Racin')

My body blazin'


[Chorus]

I feel the rush

Addicted to your touch

Oh, I feel the rush

It's so good, it's so good

I feel the rush

Addicted to your touch

Oh, I feel the rush

It's so good, it's so good


[Post-Chorus]

So good when we slow gravity, so good

It's so good, it's so good

Breathe one, two, three, take all of me, so good

It's so good, it's so good


[Outro]

It's so good, it's so good

It's so good, it's so good

Sivan is describing how a lover’s touch can feel “addictive.” This can be a direct reference to a drug experience, or simply to our body’s release of oxytocin that takes place when in the presence of a lover. Oxytocin is the drug that is often referred to as the “love drug,” as its function is to soothe and releases positive feelings.

Considering the tone of this entire song being founded in gay sex; this lyrics could be taken as a wordplay, where Troye really meant to say big cock but instead subverts expectations to say big communication,

I’ll be your sinner in secret
When the lights go out
Run away with me
Run away with me
