Lightning, lightning tattooed on my skin
I've got flashes, railroad crossings
Bitter memory of a mint-water love
I've got flashes, resets to zero
She's thunder, electrocutes K.O
Six feet under, cold as an Eskimo
Air currents, vertical currents
It goes bad real fast in the weather
When there's nobody left, when there's no sound
Then I think of you, I know you forget me
A whole life without seeing you isn't a life
Lightning, lightning, slicked-back hair
What do I look like without the superhero
The ionosphere, I climbed the curtains
Light-years, way too many flashbacks
Lightning lights up black eyes for nothing
What do I look like as an astrophysicist
Battle axes, two-handed backhands
It's toxic, I bury it, it comes back
When we can't see clear anymore, there's no sound left
I don't know what to do anymore when her pupils burn
Her lightning eyes, lightning that freezes with contempt
Lightning, lightning, the killer look
Solar system for a Martian life
Lightning, lightning, she strikes, eyes full
With a rage foreign to the divine
When there's nobody left, when there's no sound
Then I think of you, I know you forget me
A whole life without seeing you isn't a life
When we can't see clear anymore, there's no sound left
I don't know what to do anymore when her pupils burn
Her lightning eyes, lightning that freezes with contempt
