Oh my god...the difference between what was written in this song and what was sung was just astronomical! There's too much to go over. Let's just say to make this translation work, I had to combine some aspects of what was written with what was sung, to arrive at what I feel was her meaning. Anyway, cassis is an alcoholic beverage that is a bright orange in color.

The scent of my freshly washed black hair
Even now, it's like I'm flying away
My nails painted cassis
Like our wet mucous membranes
This is bad, but I want you to pour the wine
Directly from your lips
Into my mouth, instead of my glass
"Let's start in an easy position
A submissive show
A simple selection
Tonight I just want to be attacked"
There are rare times when I will
Prostrate myself for no reason
We are close but still strangers
There is nothing except for that loneliness
"Humiliate me with sly words in to my fragrant neck
Push me down in a forceful way
If you put on the distortion
Billowing linen
A simple selection
Right now I just want you"
Even if I'm buried in a shell color
I'm pure
"Humiliate me with sly words in to my fragrant neck
Push me down in a forceful way
If you put on the distortion
Billowing linen
A simple selection
Right now I just want you"
