Persephone by Cocteau Twins

I have to admit, I haven't listened to the Cocteau Twins much.  I suppose I would say "at all" except I am vaguely aware of their existence and I am certain I have heard something before. 

A friend recently posted this song on her facebook page and, because of the title I had to listen to it.  It is hauntingly beautiful.  However, after reading the lyrics I am not completely certain why it is called "Persephone" as it doesn't appear to have anything to do with her.  To be honest I am not sure I grok the lyrics, and I am not ashamed to admit that.  I'd be happy if anyone could explain them to me.  Or, maybe I would be happier just being blissfully ignorant. 



Hey, ever dirt even there month got a car

Here's what it takes (x4)
Paper chase is on
These are on my speed
For he warbled
Bought arachnophobe
On the tiara, by the gin's rack
Paper chase is on
These are on my space

Paper chase is on hey, the chances I must face
These are on my speed oh, you warbler
For he warbled hey, that's by the car
Bought arachnophobe
On the tiara
By the gin's rack
Paper chase is on
These are on my space

I watch him trail (x4)
Hey, for eight means paper chase paper warm beings means the paper chase
For our time being's for our time being's never changes this
Never changes this (x2)

Here's what it takes (x6)

Paper warm beings means the paper chase here's what it takes
For our time being's never changes this
(x3)
Here's what it takes

Hey, for eight means paper chase
For our time being's never changes this
