In "High Voltage," Chrissy Chlapecka chases a rush that is both thrilling and corrosive, admitting the charge that makes her feel alive is also poisoning her brain. The dance floor becomes a place to outrun that damage, where the bass promises escape from time and space while the pulse of the music takes over. She keeps asking to feel it faster, caught between wanting more and fighting for her life. The repeated image of high voltage captures that dangerous bargain, a current strong enough to wake her up and burn her out at once.
High Voltage Lyrics by Chrissy Chlapecka
Electric to the touch
But I can’t feel the pain
Could never have too much
It’s poisoning my brain
You shouldn’t say too much
‘Cause you would feel the same
I
I wanna feel it faster
I
It makes me come alive
The rhythm on the dance floor
It’s high voltage
I’m fighting for my life
Running through the night
And it’s high voltage
Listen to the bass
It opens up your mind
Defying time and space
A fantasy you’ll find
It pulses in my veins
Takes over my design
I
I wanna feel it faster
I
It makes me come alive
The rhythm on the dance floor
It’s high voltage
I’m fighting for my life
Running through the night
It’s high voltage
It makes me come alive
