Faster
Janelle MonŠe Lyrics

You, since that magic day We've been like magnets in a play We smash in then pull away Every day
Since the day we met, we've been drawn to each other like magnets in a game. We come together and then separate every day.

You, you're a jet, a flying gun You kill me softly with your sun You melt my wings and call it fun I should run
You move quickly and with great force like a jet or a gun. Your love is so intense that it hurts me slowly and you make it seem like a game. You keep pushing me closer to you, even though it harms me.

Faster and faster I should run Faster and faster From your arms
I need to leave you behind and escape the harm that you are causing me. The faster I run, the better it will be, as I need to get away from your grasp.

I watch my powers die Falling out of starry skies You kryptonite my life Every night
I feel like I am losing my abilities of strength, love and faith because of you. My life is like a shining star that is slowly losing its brightness because of your influence, like kryptonite. This happens every night.

The ending of this road Dashing prince or horny toad? Who really ever knows? I should know
I am uncertain of what the future holds for us, whether you are truly the one for me or just someone who is dragging me down. I should be aware of what is happening and make a decision accordingly.

Mmm, yeah. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah I'm running shaking like a schizo 'Lectric sheep are dancing in the window My heart beats It's kicking like a kick drum Am I a freak? Or just another weirdo Call me weak Or just call me your hero, baby
I am trying to run away from you, but my nerves are shaking and I am feeling like I am losing my mind. I see unrealistic things, like electric sheep dancing in the window. My heart is racing rapidly, like the beat of a drum. I am questioning whether I am a freak or just another strange person. You can call me weak for wanting to leave, or call me your hero for attempting to escape this toxic relationship.

You can't zap down all my good times I know right from wrong Kissing loving's feeling good And not this feeling down You hide your chainsaw deep in kisses That don't make it quiet You got me running, muttering, screaming, each and every night
I will not let you ruin all the good moments in my life. I know what is right and wrong and what I am feeling is not good. I know the joy of love and affection, and I don't want to feel down. But you hide your true intentions behind kisses, just like hiding a chainsaw. It may seem quiet, but the damage is still done. You have me running and screaming in agony every night.

Faster and faster I should run Faster and faster From your arms
Once again, I need to run away from you as quickly as I can to escape the damage that you are causing in my life. I want to get away from your grasp as fast as possible.
