Hold still space
Watch you watching me
Moving in slow motion cue
Disco lights set the tempo
Tech freak loverboy
This is just an illusion, uh-huh
Don't hold me back, I'm gonnadance
Don't you be leaving me out on the floor
I'll bring a supernova to the club tonight
[Chorus]x2
I'm that girl, space cadet
Holdin' it down
—
life is a tangled mess we
underestimate the complexities of
anything we try to pry out at night
but think of all the writing on the
walls in chalk
that stay up forever, do they anticipate
finding cracks in oppositions when they
meet?


I spend so much time in virtual space
Twisted up together behind the screen
It's getting hard for me to see
Hard for me to feel and touch
And it's easy to fall in too deep
I'm slipping on a designer drug
Hyped up digitized heartache
It's been hard for me to see me
I guess I forgot how to love any other way
Than what I see up on that screen
