Yellow Flicker Beat

Yellow Flicker Beat
By Lorde
Features in Mockingjay: Part 1

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,

That keeps my veins hot,

The fire's found a home in me,

I move through town,

I'm quiet like a fight,

And my necklace is of rope,

I tie it and untie it,

And now people talk to me,

But nothing ever hits home,

People talk to me,

And all their voices just burn holes,

I'm done with it (ohh)

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 that red,

Orange, yellow flicker beat,

Sparking up my heart,

We're at the start,

The colors disappear,

I never watch the stars,

There's so much down here,

So I just try,

Keep up with that 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,

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.

I'm 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 that red,

Orange, yellow flicker beat,

Sparking up my heart,

We're at the start,

The colors dissapear,

I never watch the stars,

There's so much down here,

So I just try,

Keep up with that red,

Orange, yellow flicker beat,

Sparking up my heart,

And this is that red,

Orange, yellow flicker beat,

Sparking up my heart,

And this is that red,

Orange, yellow flicker beat,

Beat, beat, beat.
