about

Sweeping orchestral track over a complex latin based rhythm.

lyrics

I know it's illogical
This irregularity
Tick, tick, boom
Skip a few
Tick, tick, boom
Like tiny dancing feet

I know it's unusual
Maybe I could take a pill
But every time
You pass my way
My pulse beats in
Double time

Messing with the rhythms
Of my electric heart
Overriding all the signals
That keep me safe inside

I know it's innocuous
Even though it repeats
Tick, tick, boom
Skip a few
Tick, tick, boom
Like the rumble of thunder above

I know the storm is coming
Better shelter while you can

Messing with the rhythms
Of my electric heart
Overriding all the signals
That keep me safe from harm

Let the lightening strike me down
Let the circuits overload
My heart it beats
Incredibly fast
I feel it's going to explode
Going to explode

Tick, tick boom
Skip a few
Tick, tick, boom
Let the lightening strike me down.
