lyrics

Sorry that I left you, it was so hot inside your bedroom
Still sleeping there, new bad news, I flew
Cause when I feel it comin’ I instinctively start runnin’
Thanks for the rush of adrenaline, my friend

Bated breath and pounding chests
Eyes wide and muscles tight
No it isn’t love, it’s fight or flight

When charged with charming tactics, my affection’s automatic
Call it a born-again-romantic’s mistake
And if I do not fight it, I’ll fall in love on autopilot
Fold me a plane and watch me fly it away

Bated breath and pounding chests
Eyes wide and muscles tight
No it isn’t love, it’s fight or flight

Blame it on my chemistry
You won’t get what you want from me
Happier alone and free
They can’t take that away from me

Bated breath and pounding chests
Eyes wide and muscles tight
No it isn’t love,
I’m sure it isn’t love,
You better thank the stars above,
It’s fight or flight
