Ellie Goulding Lyrics

Tessellate

Bite chunks out of me,

You're a shark, and I'm swimming,

My heart still thumps as I bleed,

And all your friends come sniffing.

Triangles are my favourite shape,

Three points where two lines meet,

Toe to toe, back to back, let's go, my love, it's very late,

'Til morning comes, let's tessellate.

Go alone, my flower, and keep my whole, lovely you,

Wild green stones alone, my lover, and keep us on my heart.

Three guns, and one goes off,

One's empty, and one's not quick enough,

One burn, one red, one grin, search the graves while the camera spins.

Chunks of you will sink down to the seals,

Blubber rich in mourning, they'll nosh you up,

Yes, they'll nosh the love awah, but it's fair to say, you will still haunt me.

Triangles are my favourite shape,

Three points where two lines meet,

Toe to toe, back to back, let's go, my love, it's very late,

'Til morning comes.

Wild green stones alone, my lover, and keep us on my heart.
