Lorde ☆

I’ve never seen a diamond in the flesh

I cut our teeth on wedding rings in the movies

And I’m not proud of my address

In the torn up town, no post code envy

But every song’s like gold teeth, Grey Goose

Tripping in the bathroom

Bloodstains, ball gowns, trashing the hotel room

We don’t care, we’re driving Cadillacs in our dreams



But everybody’s like Crystal, Maybach

Diamonds on your timepiece

Jet planes, islands, tigers on a gold leash

We don’t care, we aren’t caught up in your love affair



And we’ll never be royals

It don’t run in our blood

That kind of lux just ain’t for us

We crave a different kind of buzz

Let me be your ruler

You can call me queen bee

Baby I’ll rule, I’ll rule, I’ll rule, I’ll rule

Let me live that fantasy





Feeling my way through the darkness

Guided by a beating heart

I don’t know where the journey will end

But I know where to start



They say I’m just too young to understand

Say I’m caught up in a dream

Life will pass me by if I don’t open up my eyes

Well, that’s fine by me



So wake me up when it’s all over

When I’m wiser and I’m older

All this time I was finding myself

And I didn’t know I was lost





Your hand fits in mine like it’s made just for me

But bear this in mind, it was meant to be

I’m joining up the dots with the freckles on your cheeks

And it all makes sense to me



I know you’ve never loved the crinkles by your eyes when you smile

You’ve never loved your stomach or your thighs

The dimples on your back, at the bottom of your spine

But I love them endlessly



I won’t let these little things slip out of my mouth

But if I do, it’s you, oh, it’s you

They add up to

I’m in love with you

And all your little things
