[English]

It hits me like an earthquake (Uh-huh)

My heart races faster (Uh-huh)

My whole body's shaking, can't stand (Uh-huh)

So I can't deny you (Uh-huh)

My heart's off the chart, like a race car

(Vroom, vroom, vroom)

Even time is fast, takes my breath away

(Vroom, vroom, vroom)

The more I try to escape, the deeper you get

Like a dream I know I can't wake up from

There's a shock coming after this

('Bout to blow, 'bout to blow, 'bout to blow, 'bout to blow)

It hits me like an earthquake (Uh-huh)

The more I try to escape, the deeper you get
