lyrics

The muscle in my chest that keeps the beat won’t let me rest.
The clock that's running out, sometimes it can get worn out.
Because my heart's a time machine,
that wants to change my history,
take out my enemies, alter my destiny.

All the ones I should have kissed,
All the chances that I missed,
this time I'll invest,
I'll fix what I wrecked with,
The Slingshot Effect.

We'll go so fast that we'll erase the past.
I'm gonna retcon my whole life.
Event one, hit the reset button.
We get to start again,
we get to start again tonight.

I'll stop myself from telling lies,
And I won't step on butterflies.
Every little regret,
Is now something I can correct.
Because my heart's a time machine,
that can change all my history.
give myself an intervention,
across the fifth dimension.

All the words I should have said,
All the lives I could have led.
this time I'll invest,
I'll fix what I wrecked with,
The Slingshot Effect.

We'll go so fast that we'll erase the past.
I'm gonna retcon my whole life.
Event one, hit the reset button.
We get to start again,
we get to start again tonight.

There's no going back,
no alternate reality.
Tonight's the night I reboot,
all my continuity.

There's no going back,
no alternate reality.
Tonight's the night I reboot,
all my continuity.

The muscle in my chest that keeps the beat won’t let me rest.

We'll go so fast that we'll erase the past.
I'm gonna retcon my whole life.
Event one, hit the reset button.
We get to start again,
we get to start again tonight.

I don't need a contraption,
to pay for my infractions,
I can't make everything correct,
I don't need The Slingshot Effect.
My convoluted history,
always slingshots right back at me.
I will not live by hindsight,
I will start again tonight.

The muscle in my chest that keeps the beat won’t let me rest.
The muscle in my chest that keeps the beat won’t let me rest.
