my electric face

Story Behind The Song

The chorus riff is where I started - I liked the heavy electronic bassline of the chorus and wanted the melody line to follow. The rest followed from there. I'm not entirely happy with the lyrical content yet - it will change over the coming weeks.

Lyrics

Shiny hands going round
Up above underground
Humans can't keep up the pace
They defy convention
Seconds tick keep the time
People lose direction
Try to stop the hands of time
Quick before destruction

Don't you touch my electric face
Don't you stop my electric face
If you do I will eat your face
Don't you touch my electric face

People work against the tide
Losing sense of connection
Life machines lead the way
Pushing time & production
Minutes tick overtime
People lose affection
Try to stop the hands of time
Quick before destruction

Don't you touch my electric face
Don't you stop my electric face
If you do, I will eat your face
Don't you touch my electric face

Hours tick keep the time
People lose direction
Try to stop the hands of time
Quick before destruction

Don't you touch my electric face
Don't you stop my electric face
If you do, I will eat your face
Don't you touch my electric face

Don't you touch my electric face
Don't you stop my electric face
If you do, I will eat your face
Don't you touch my electric face
