AUTOMATIC
Never Say Die Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

It's running through my veins
Feel so electric
Like there's no remedy
And I'm infected
Your love is digital
Waiting to download
And when you click send
I'll let the world know
That what I feel inside
I can't explain it
If love was criminal
Then I'd be famous
Save up the memory
Never delete it
Lost in a fantasy
I must be dreaming
Every second I'm alive
You make my heart beat automatic
And if you left I'd fall apart
You make my heart beat automatic
When I'm with you (×2)
I'm ready to explode
Heart like a landmine
It's system overload
Ready to flatline
You were the target
Of my obsession
Using your body
Like it's a weapon
Is this reality
Or simulation
I feel it setting in
My pulse is racing
Let's take it worldwide
Too late to cancel
We've hit the mainstream
We've going viral
Every second I'm alive
You make my heart beat automatic
And if you left I'd fall apart




You make my heart beat automatic
When I'm with you (×4)
