Arrhythmia
I pressed my head against your chest
To listen to the compression
Papillary muscles
Beating at irregular tempos
Papillary muscles
Beating at irregular tempos
I pressed my head against your chest
Your heart beat out a confession
Keeping up with you is
Both exciting and exhausting
Keeping up with you is
Both exciting and exhausting
Hey!
But I don’t want to
Slow things down
As if you could
Arrhythmia
When things just don’t line up
Now the blood’s begun to rush
But you’re unavailable
What’s coming next for us
Can’t being friends Being friends can’t
Be enough
Well it has to be
