Siren

Intro

(sir-en, sir-en) hey-ya

woah, woah, woah (call, call)

Verse

You walk in like a warning, polished like a blade

Lipstick like a signal, I’m caught inside your parade

Clock hands spin faster when you tilt your head my way

Every little motion pulls the air and won’t let me stay

Lights cut through the room — sharp as a word unsaid

You smile like a shortcut, cut me open in red

I try to step back but the skyline drags me in

Sirens on my skin, oh, where do I begin? (where do I begin?)

Pre-chorus

Turn it up, turn it up, feel the static climb (uh-huh)

You’re an alarm at midnight playing on my mind

Slow it down, slow it down, but I can’t rewind (no)

Your frequency, your frequency — it’s calling all the time

Chorus

Siren, siren, pull me closer, pull me under

Siren, siren, light me up then watch me thunder

Siren, siren, can’t escape the way you wonder

Siren, siren, (oh) pull me closer, pull me under

Siren, siren, pull me closer, pull me under

Siren, siren, light me up then watch me thunder

Verse

Glass on the pavement, glitter like a secret trace

You move in slow danger, perfect in every place

Shadows split in rhythm where your fingers find the beat

I’m a willing witness to the sound beneath your feet

Words fall like hailstones, they scatter, then they stay

I’m dialing up the danger, no, I won’t look away

Your laugh is an engine, rev it, let it run

I chase the siren’s promise till the morning comes (till the morning comes)

Pre-chorus

Turn it up, turn it up, feel the static climb (yeah)

You’re an alarm at midnight playing on my mind

Slow it down, slow it down, but I can’t rewind (no)

Your frequency, your frequency — it’s calling all the time

Chorus

Siren, siren, pull me closer, pull me under

Siren, siren, light me up then watch me thunder

Siren, siren, can’t escape the way you wonder

Siren, siren, (oh) pull me closer, pull me under

Siren, siren, pull me closer, pull me under

Siren, siren, light me up then watch me thunder

Bridge

(na-na) whisper on the wire, rope of velvet, rope of flame

(da-da) you write my name in fire, every letter knows your name

Hands like contraband, heartbeat on a string

You play me like a signal — bing, bing, bing (ya)

No map, no mercy, but I’m still tracing where you go

Compass spins in orbit round the fever that you show

Close the distance, close the gap, taste the danger and the sweet

Siren in the silence, pull me, pull me to the beat

Chorus

Siren, siren, pull me closer, pull me under

Siren, siren, light me up then watch me thunder

Siren, siren, can’t escape the way you wonder

Siren, siren, (oh) pull me closer, pull me under

Siren, siren, pull me closer, pull me under

Siren, siren, light me up then watch me thunder

Outro

Siren, siren, (call me) ahhhhAaaaaahhhhhhh!
