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 fire’s found a home in me
i move through town im quiet like a fight
and my necklace is of rope i tie it and untie it
pre
and now people talk to me but nothing ever hits home
people talk to me and all the voices just burn holes
im done with it ooh
this is the start of how it all ends
they used to shout my name now they whisper it
i’m speeding up and this is the
red orange yellow flicker beat sparking up my heart
were at the start the colors disappear
i never watch the stars theres so much down here
so i just try to keep up with them
red orange yellow flicker beat sparking up my heart
i dream all year but they’re not the sweet kinds
and the shivers move down my shoulder blades in double time
pre
and now people talk to me i’m slipping out of reach now
people talk to me and all their faces blur
but i got my fingers laced together and i made a little prison
and i’m locking up everyone who ever laid a finger on me
im done with it ooh
this is the start of how it all ends
they used to shout my name now they whisper it
i’m speeding up and this is the
red orange yellow flicker beat sparking up my heart
were at the start the colors disappear
i never watch the stars theres so much down here
so i just try to keep up with them
red orange yellow flicker beat sparking up my heart
and this is the red orange yellow flicker beat
sparking up my heart
and this is the red orange yellow flicker beatbeatbeatbeat
