LORDE lyrics : "Glory and Gore"

There's a humming in the restless summer air
And we're slipping off the course that we prepared
But in all chaos, there is calculation

Drop them glasses just to hear them break
You've been drinking like the world was gonna end (it's end)
Took a shiner from the fist of your best friend (go figure)

It's clear that someone's gotta go
We mean it, but I promise we're not mean


And the quiet goes out
They lose their minds for us
And how it plays out

Now we're in the ring
And we're coming for blood


You can try and take us
But we're the gladiators
Everyone a ranger

But secretly they're saviors
Glory and gore go hand and hand
That's why we're making headlines

You can try and take us
But victory's contagious


Tell the kid in every way but one (the swordplay)
God know's we like arcade kinds of fun (the old way)
Chance is the only game I played with, baby

We let our battle choose us

[Chorus]


No one 'round here's good at keeping their eyes closed
The sun's starting to light up when we're walking home

Tired little laughs, gold life promises, we'll always win at this
I don't ever thing about death
It's all right if you do, it's fine


We gladiate but I guess we're really fighting ourselves
Roughing up our minds so we're ready when the kill time comes

Wide awake in bed, words in my brain, secretly a love fish
Do you even wanna go free?
Let me in the ring, I'll show you what that big word means


[Chorus]
