[Intro] [Muted, crunchy electric guitar riff starts] [Clean, polished synth bass pulse joins] [Sharp intake of breath] [Driving, live drum beat kicks in hard] [Verse 1] You got the leather jacket and the alibi Painting pretty pictures with a crooked lie I’m in the passenger seat, biting my tongue Watching the damage that you’ve already done [(Hah!) The radio is playing our favorite song But the melody is feeling all wrong. [Pre-Chorus] The static is getting louder in my head I remember every single word you said You think you’re smooth, yeah, you think you’re a thriller But baby, I’m the cold-blooded killer. [Chorus] Oh! It’s a heartbreak hit-and-run tonight! Set the wreckage on fire in the neon light! You can’t stop the rhythm when it starts to crash! Leaving nothing behind but the smoke and ash! (Ow! Yeah! Watch it burn!) [Verse 2] Look in the mirror, tell me who you see [Vocal hiccup: (Hee!)] Is it the hero or the enemy? You tried to play me like a video game Now you’re the only one left with the blame I cut the brakes and I cut the wire Now we’re dancing in the middle of the fire. [Bridge] Quiet now... Don’t make a sound. It’s a long way down to the hard, cold ground. Are you ready? Are you ready for the impact?! [Chorus] Oh! It’s a heartbreak hit-and-run tonight! Set the wreckage on fire in the neon light! You can’t stop the rhythm when it starts to crash! Leaving nothing behind but the smoke and ash! (Burn it down! Hee-hee! Ow!) [Outro] (Hit-and-run...) (Yeah, you better run...)
