Lorde - Yellow Flicker Beat lyrics

rate me

(Verse)

I'm a princess cut from marble, smoother than a storm

And the scars that mark my body, they're silver and gold

My blood is a flood of rubies, precious stones

It keeps my veins hot, the fires find a home in me

I move thru town, I'm quiet like a fire

And my necklace is of opal, I tie it and untie it

(Pre-Chorus)

People talk to me, but nothin' eva hits home

People talk to me, and all the voices just burn holes

I’m done wit it

(Chorus)

This is the start of how it eva ends

They used to shout my name, now they whisper it

I'm speedin' up and this is the

Red, orange, yellow flicker beat sparkin' up my heart

We’re at the start, the colors disappear

I neva watch the stars, there’s so much down here

So I just try to keep up wit them

Red, orange, yellow flicker beat sparkin' up my heart

(Verse 2)

I dream all year, but they are not the sweet kinds

And the shivers move down my shoulder blades in double time

And now people talk to me I'm slippin' out of reach now

People talk to me, and all their faces blurr

But I got my fingers laced together and I made a lil prison

And I'm lockin' up everyone who eva laid a finger on me

I’m done wit it

(Chorus)

This is the start of how it eva ends

They used to shout my name, now they whisper it

I'm speedin' up and this is the

Red, orange, yellow flicker beat sparkin' up my heart

We’re at the start, the colors disappear

I neva watch the stars, there’s so much down here

So I just try to keep up wit them

Red, orange, yellow flicker beat sparkin' up my heart

(Outro)

And this is the red, orange, yellow flicker beat

Sparking up my heart

And this is the red, orange, yellow flicker beatbeatbeatbeat
