Shutter Speed Skank (Version 2)

Verse

Strobe cuts fast like a shutter click

Freeze-frame face in the flicker trick

Bassline chopping every step I take

Floor tilts soft like a heat-warped lake

Lost my jacket somewhere by the door

Don't need it now, I'm the beat, I'm the floor

Pre-Chorus

Snare keeps snapping like a camera eye

Catching me mid-air, catching me fly

Can't find my name in the smoke and the sound

Don't need it back, let it stay unfound

Chorus

Shutter speed skank, freeze me in the light

Blink and I'm gone in the strobe tonight

Two-step blur, can't slow it down

Shutter speed skank, I'm the flash, I'm the sound

Verse

Mirror ball spinning, cutting up the room

Silver confetti falling like the moon

Hi-hats ticking off the disco clock

Feet keep moving even when they stop

Someone's shouting out a name that's mine

But I left it back there on the yellow line

Pre-Chorus

Snare keeps snapping like a camera eye

Catching me mid-air, catching me fly

Can't find my name in the smoke and the sound

Don't need it back, let it stay unfound

Chorus

Shutter speed skank, freeze me in the light

Blink and I'm gone in the strobe tonight

Two-step blur, can't slow it down

Shutter speed skank, I'm the flash, I'm the sound

Bridge

Slow it down, let the shutter close

Hold me still where the red light glows

No name, no face, just the click and the beat

Just the flash, just the heat, just the feet

Chorus

Shutter speed skank, freeze me in the light

Blink and I'm gone in the strobe tonight

Two-step blur, can't slow it down

Shutter speed skank, I'm the flash, I'm the sound
