Ellie, You’re Electric

[Verse 1]
Met you in a quiet kitchen
Coffee stains and mismatched mugs
You were laughing at your own bad joke
I was gone in the rush of it
Sunday papers
Folded corners
Your hair up
My heart undone
You said
“Guess we’re stuck together”
I said
“Yeah… that sounds like fun”
[Pre-Chorus]
Every scar
Every story on your skin
I trace them like a map that leads me in
I’m alright
I’m alive in your gravity
Say my name
And the dark just loses teeth
[Chorus]
Ellie
You’re electric
You light me up
Turn my little world into a flood
When you take my hand
Everything makes sense
Every crash and spark
Every reckless step
Ellie
You’re electric
My burning truth
If I get one life
I spend it all on you (oh yeah)
[Verse 2]
Grocery lists and late night dishes
Dancing in a cluttered hall
You’re off-key
I’m off rhythm
Still it feels like we own it all
Little fights about the covers
Then your toes find mine at 3
You mumble
“Hey
Don’t go nowhere”
Like there’s someplace I’d rather be
[Pre-Chorus]
Every fear
Every tear you try to hide
I’m the arms
I’m the armor by your side
Hold your breath
We can jump into the deep
Say the word
I’ll be wide awake in your dreams
[Chorus]
Ellie
You’re electric
You light me up
Turn my little world into a flood
When you take my hand
Everything makes sense
Every crash and spark
Every reckless step
Ellie
You’re electric
My burning truth
If I get one life
I spend it all on you (hey!)
[Bridge]
We’re a little chipped
A little frayed
But these cracks let the color through
Every wrong turn that I ever made
Just a road that was leading me to you
[Chorus]
Ellie
You’re electric
You light me up
Turn my little world into a flood
When you say my name
Everything resets
Every wound you touch
I start to mend
Ellie
You’re electric
My endless proof
If I get one life
I spend it all on you
Ellie
You’re electric
My burning truth
Every beat I’ve got belongs to you

rock, Big arena rock-electro hybrid, male vocals. Verse sits on tight distorted guitars locked to a pulsing synth bass; huge four-on-the-floor drums in the chorus, with bright arpeggiated keys widening the stereo field. Pre-chorus strips to toms and a rising pad, then chorus explodes with gang vocals on the hook and a soaring lead line. Bridge brings a halftime stomp, filtered synths, and a climactic final hook with stacked harmonies., electro
