Songfacts®:

  • Adore Life is about love - every kind of love. This track finds Jehnny Beth likening love to a disease: "What happens in your brain is the same as a rush of cocaine."

    However, one gets the feeling that hooking up with the singer could be hazardous: "I'm not gonna hurt you. Cause I'm flirting with you."
