Composition
"In My Blood" was co-written by The Veronicas (Jessica Origliasso and Lisa Origliasso) along with Anthony Egizii and David Musumeci in Sydney. The duo have previously collaborated with the latter two on their 2014 single "You Ruin Me".
The duo credit Kylie Minogue as an inspiration for the sound of the song. Speaking about the sound, Robbie Daw of Idolator compared the recording to other dance-pop tracks saying, "'In My Blood' is a dreamy foray into dance-pop territory that has shades of Kylie Minogue, Robyn and even Texas." In the chorus the duo sing "we don’t have to wait all night to know if this is really love. We don’t have to wait all night ‘cause I can feel you in my blood," with a throbbing bass line that transitions into the hook with a robotic drop.
