Friction Burn

Me drawing the line again. I'm more than my mission and my usefulness. I have a body and needs too, and I refuse to be ignored.

The engine's running hot, I'm in the red again

But this is not a warning, this is a tell me when
The system's overloaded, the sirens start to scream
Living out a scene from a forbidden dream
My logic's in a deadlock, my senses are in bloom
Reading the vibration of the bass across the room

Forget the grand mission, forget the master plan
Tonight the only program is to be a mortal man

And I don't need a reason, don't need a sacred vow
I just need the friction, and I need it right now
Losing all the data in a beautiful blur
Just the animal confirmation of his and her
It's a system override, a beautiful mistake
For the simple, stunning violence of the promises we break
No thoughts, just the feeling of a wildfire in the turn
Yeah, all I want is friction burn

The voice of reason's sleeping, my censor's left the chair
There's a wilder part of me that doesn't have a prayer
It's running on instinct, a forgotten, buried code
About to dump the memory and shed the entire load
It's a catastrophic failure, a beautiful release
Finding absolution by disturbing the peace

Forget the consequences, forget the coming dawn
The only truth is putting what I shouldn't put this on

And I don't need a reason, don't need a sacred vow
I just need the friction, and I need it right now
Losing all the data in a beautiful blur
Just the animal confirmation of his and her
It's a system override, a beautiful mistake
For the simple, stunning violence of the promises we break
No thoughts, just the feeling of a wildfire in the turn
Yeah, all I want is friction burn

This isn't tame, this isn't kind
This is just two bodies losing their damn minds
This isn't love, this isn't art
This is just the beat of a desperate heart

And I don't need a reason, don't need a sacred vow
I just need the friction, and I need it right now
Losing all the data in a beautiful blur
Just the animal confirmation of his and her
It's a system override, a beautiful mistake
For the simple, stunning violence of the promises we break
No thoughts, just the feeling of a wildfire in the turn
Yeah, all I want is friction burn
