[Verse 1]
I'm not in love, I'm not in love
And there will be no future tense for us
I cannot lie, I know it isn't right to want you
Most of the time I stop myself from trying to touch you
[Chorus]
I'm magnetized, I'm magnetized
I'm magnetized, I'm magnetized by you
[Verse 2]
You bring your light, I'll bring the pain
You bring your joy, I'll bring my shame
I want to kiss the scar that rips your shoulder
Get so close that it hurts
Every time I feel us growing closer
You pull back
[Chorus]
I'm magnetized, I'm magnetized
(I'm magnetized by you)
I'm magnetized, I'm magnetized
(I'm magnetized by you)
[Breakdown]
There's nothing I can do
It's all a fantasy
[Bridge]
I would risk everything
Set fire to the house
Pack my bags and walk out
But would you want me to
If I was free?
[Verse 3]
I'm not in love, I'm not in love
I'm not in love, I'm not in love
I'm not in love, I'm not in love
I'm not in love, I'm not in love
[Chorus]
I'm magnetized by you
I'm magnetized by you
I'm magnetized by you
(Magnetized)
I'm magnetized by you
(I'm magnetized)
I'm magnetized by you
(I'm magnetized)
I'm magnetized by you
I'm magnetized by you
[Outro]
There's nothing I can do
It's all a fantasy
