Lorde - Bravado lyrics

rate me

All my life

I've been fighting a war

I can't talk

To you or your friends!

It's not only you

My heart jumps around when I'm alluded to

This will not do!

Cause I was raised up

To be admired,

To be noticed

But when you're withdrawn

It's the closest thing

To assault when all eyes are on you

This will not do!

Oh, oh, ohhh, oh, oh, oh

Oh, oh, ohhh, oh, oh, oh

Oh, oh, ohhh, oh, oh, oh

Oh, oh, ohhh, oh, oh, oh

I'm faking glory

Lick my lips, toss my hair

And send a smile over

And the stories brand new,

But I can take it from here

I'll find my own bravado!

Pre-chorus:

It's a switch flipped

It's a pill tipped back to moon eclipsed, oh-oh

And I can tell you that

When the lights come on I'll be ready for this!

It's in your blood stream

A collision of atoms

That happens before your eyes

It's a marathon run

Or a mountain you scale without thinking of size!

Chorus:

I was frightened of

Every little thing that I thought was out to get me down,

To trip me up and laugh at me,

But I learnt not to want

The quiet of the room with no one around to find me out

I want the applause, the approval, the things that make me go oh!

Oh, oh, ohhh, oh, oh, oh

Oh, oh, ohhh, oh, oh, oh

Oh, oh, ohhh, oh, oh, oh

Oh, oh, ohhh, oh, oh, oh

Pre-chorus:

It's a switch flipped

It's a pill tipped back to moon eclipsed, oh-oh

And I can tell you that

When the lights come on I'll be ready for this!

It's in your blood stream

A collision of atoms

That happens before your eyes

It's a marathon run

Or a mountain you scale without thinking of size!

Chorus:

I was frightened of

Every little thing that I thought was out to get me down,

To trip me up and laugh at me,

But I learnt not to want

The quiet of the room with no one around to find me out

I want the applause, the approval, the things that make me go oh!

Oh, oh, ohhh, oh, oh, oh

Oh, oh, ohhh, oh, oh, oh

Oh, oh, ohhh, oh, oh, oh

Oh, oh, ohhh, oh, oh, oh
