last night we were atoms in the universe / falling down / i slipped on the water was cursed, spilt / on the ground / we were both nineteen / tossing the recycling no / body made us / we just didn't
know / when we look around there's no one else there / and it feels so right / when we fuck around / messing with strangers
last night we were staring out the window / the wind blows / blue light makes your body looks sinful / when it does / animal lightning / when you're right beside me no / one contains us / but our clothes
there's no one else home / your room is an island / where we are stranded / we are just two figures in space
wait a sec / what the heck / was I so hung up on / you're pulling me down into your open arms / atoms fall / tell me i'm on the mark
can't say what makes the risk well worth / falling down / the animal lightning / courses through my psyche / no one contains us / anymore
