AUTOMATIC
Lucyfire Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I'm a million CC on a devil ride
Baby I am red lava on your burning skin
I am out in the cold and I wanna get in
I'm a tiptoeing sin and a knife in your back
I am payback time, I am counter attack
I'm the bee for the honey and a run for the money
Sugar for the sweet and a carrot for the bunny
I'm automatic, oh so static
As a wind, as a river, as a tempest nothing that you can do
I'm automatic, oh so static
As a sin, as a shiver, as a serpent I'll be coming for you
I am big game baby as fat as lard
I'm a crucifix burning in your backyard
I'm a heartshaped pool drooling blood in your face
A Double-Eagle downliner crimson maze
A decapitated horsehead in a virgin bed
I'm the dead of the living and the living of dead
I'm on the right side of the table finishing my last meal
I'm day one in the age of the southern seal
I'm automatic, oh so static
As a wind, as a river, as a tempest nothing that you can do
I'm automatic, oh so static
As a sin, as a shiver, as a serpent I'll be coming for you

I'm the nail in the coffin, I'm your cyanide
I am the final blow that ends everything, I'm your poison that kills you slowly
I'm a million CC on a devil ride
I'm like a powerful engine on a hellish ride, unstoppable and dangerous
Baby I am red lava on your burning skin
I am the scorching heat that burns you alive, it's impossible to escape my grip
I am out in the cold and I wanna get in
I'm feeling left out and excluded, I want to be part of something
I'm a tiptoeing sin and a knife in your back
I'm a sneaky wrongdoing that will harm you unexpectedly
I am payback time, I am counter attack
I am the result of the retaliation for the harm caused, I'm the response to your attack
I'm the bee for the honey and a run for the money
I am the one going after what I want, I am the competitor in the race for success
Sugar for the sweet and a carrot for the bunny
I am the reward for something good, and the motive for a chase
I'm automatic, oh so static
I am automatic, unchangeable and constant
As a wind, as a river, as a tempest nothing that you can do
Like a natural disaster, I cannot be stopped or controlled by anyone
As a sin, as a shiver, as a serpent I'll be coming for you
Like a moral wrong, a chill down your spine, or a dangerous animal, I will be after you
I am big game baby as fat as lard
I'm the significant target to achieve, as huge as a heavy fat
I'm a crucifix burning in your backyard
I am a symbol of sacrifice and pain, an image in flames in your very own space
I'm a heartshaped pool drooling blood in your face
I am the innocent and pure symbol, now corrupted and gruesome, mocking you
A Double-Eagle downliner crimson maze
A torturous path with no way out, a deadly game of chess
A decapitated horsehead in a virgin bed
The fearful and disturbing image of powerlessness and tragedy
I'm the dead of the living and the living of dead
I am the end of one and the beginning of another, the boundary between death and life
I'm on the right side of the table finishing my last meal
I am present in a situation where the outcome is almost certain, enjoying the moment
I'm day one in the age of the southern seal
I am part of a new era where things may change drastically, starting fresh
