Electric girl She wanna see the world Got pictures of Japan on the wall She wants the Tokyo neon lights in her eyes A London pearl Knows her life can change overnight Not a criminal Just a rebel with a burning fight for her rights And it's a long cold winter for a summer soul (It's hard looking up) When your freedom feels like it's under control (And society sucks) Hard to breathe, seasonal anxiety takes a toll (But not for long) You can't blow the fuse on this electric girl (Woo, woo) (Woo, woo) Shape, shape, you can never shape her, no Turns a warehouse party to a disco Both feet off the ground when you see her Electric girl, you want to be her Shape, shape you feel it when you bust these moves Right from your head down to your shoes Like a primadonna ballerina Electric girl, have you seen her? She's gonna have it all Ain't nothing holding her back this time She can move the world, the stars have aligned Give us a twirl With the skater skirt cutting up her thigh She's having a heaven of a night Like a doll, lip stained with cherry wine And it's a long cold winter for a summer soul (It's hard looking up) When your freedom feels like it's under control (And society sucks) Hard to breathe, seasonal anxiety takes a toll (But not for long) You can't blow the fuse on this electric girl (Woo, woo) (Woo, woo) (Woo, woo) (Electric girl)

Dying sun burns in the night I watch it glow, and it's so hard for me Speaking darkness out of spite Coercion and then caving in, wrap me in my bitterness Give it up, I'm complacent, just enough to escape it Heretics wouldn't phase me Lucid trust, I don't want it, palms are rough when you promise Fire lies when you're honest It's hard to lose and wonder why You pressure in increments Like a slow-moving coup Memories dissident When I am holding you If my sun won't set tonight I'll look around, but it's so hard for me Like a shadow passing by Crashing into shapes and then fading with my innocence Give it up, I'm complacent, just enough to escape it Heretics wouldn't phase me Lucid trust, I don't want it, palms are rough when you promise Fire lies when you're honest It's hard to lose and wonder why I have been waiting my whole life For pressure in increments Like a slow-moving coup Memories dissident When I am holding you
