Marina And The Diamonds - Solitaire lyrics

rate me

(Verse)

Don't want to talk anymo', I'm obsessed with silence

I go home and lock my door, I can hear the sirens

I see buildings & bars from the window & I listen to the wind blow

I see people & cars covered in gold & I'm happy to be on my own

(Pre-Chorus)

Hard like a rock, cold like a stone

White like a diamond, black like coal

Cut like a jewel, yeah I repair

Myself when you're not there

(Chorus)

Solitaire, somethin' u consider rare

I don't want to be compared

With that cheap shimmer & glitter

Solitaire!

(Verse 2)

I'm in luv with ice blue gray skies of England

I'll admit, all I want to do is get drunk & silent

Watch my life unfold all around me like a beautiful garden

I see flowers so tall, they surround me, my heart, it became so hardened!

(Pre-Chorus)

(Chorus)

(Bridge)

And all the otha jewels around me, they astounded me at first

I covered up my heart in boundaries & all the fakes, they called me cursed

But I'm not cursed, I'm not cursed

I was just covered in the dirt

(Chorus)
