I spent a few hours going through the lyrics
There are still some gaps, but I corrected horrible mistakes that I found online
Feel free to complete them, or disagree with something that I came up with
(I know some lines are still wrong)
ChandelierParty girls don't get hurt
Can't feel anything, when will I learn?
I push it down, push it down
I'm the one for a “good time call"
Phone's blowing up, ringing my doorbell
I feel the love, feel the love
1 2 3 … 1 2 3 drink
1 2 3 … 1 2 3 drink
1 2 3 … 1 2 3 drink
Throw em back, till I lose count
I'm gonna swing from the chandelier, from the chandelier
I'm gonna live like tomorrow doesn't exist, like it doesn't exist
I'm gonna fly like a bird through the night, feel my tears as they dry
I'm gonna swing from the chandelier, from the chandelier
And I'm holding on for dear life
Won't look down, won't open my eyes
Keep my glass full until morning light
Cause I'm just holding on for tonight
Help me, I'm holding on for dear life
Won't look down, won't open my eyes
Keep my glass full until morning light
Cause I'm just holding on for tonight … on for tonight
Sun is up, I'm a mess
Gotta get out now, gotta run from this
Here comes the shame, here comes the shame
1 2 3 … 1 2 3 drink
1 2 3 … 1 2 3 drink
1 2 3 … 1 2 3 drink
Throw em back, till I lose count
I'm gonna swing from the chandelier, from the chandelier
I'm gonna live like tomorrow doesn't exist, like it doesn't exist
I'm gonna fly like a bird through the night, feel my tears as they dry
I'm gonna swing from the chandelier, from the chandelier
And I'm holding on for dear life
Won't look down, won't open my eyes
Keep my glass full until morning light
Cause I'm just holding on for tonight
Help me, I'm holding on for dear life
Won't look down, won't open my eyes
Keep my glass full until morning light
Cause I'm just holding on for tonight … on for tonight … on for tonight
Big Girls Cry
Tough girl in the fast lane
No time for love, no time for hate
No drama, no time for games
Tough girl whose soul aches
I come home, on my own
Check my phone, nothing though
Act busy, order in
Pay TV, it's agony
I may cry, ruining my make-up
Wash away all the things you've taken
And I don't care if I don't look pretty
Big girls cry when their hearts are breaking
Big girls cry when their hearts are breaking
Big girls cry when their heart is breaking
Tough girl, I'm in pain
It’s lonely at the top
Blackouts and airplanes
And I still pour you a glass of champagne
Tough girl whose soul aches
I come home, on my own
Check my phone, nothing though
Act busy, order in
Pay TV, it's agony
I may cry, ruining my make-up
Wash away all the things you've taken
And I don't care if I don't look pretty
Big girls cry when their hearts are breaking
Big girls cry when their hearts are breaking
Big girls cry when their hearts are breaking
I wake up … I wake up …
Alone
I may cry, ruining my make-up
Wash away all the things you've taken
And I don't care if I don't look pretty
Big girls cry when their hearts are breaking
Big girls cry when their hearts are breaking
Big girls cry when their heart is breaking
Burn the Pages
You're dark grey like a storm cloud
That's rolling out with rains
That are desperate to be let out
And I know it's a heavy load
Carrying those tears around
Carrying those fears around
Worry makes the world go round
You're twisted up like a slipknot
Tied by a goose ?? just took his t-shirt
And I know there's a hungry duck
Tugging at your freedoms
But he's just playing with you
He just wants to be your friend
So don't worry, don't worry
I'm here by your side, by your side, by your side
We're letting go tonight
Yesterday is gone and you will be okay
Place your past into a book
Burn the pages, let 'em cook
Yesterday is dead and gone and so today
Place your past into a book
Burn the pages, let 'em cook
Eyes stinging from the black smoke
New hope, loose rope
Risen from the undertow
All is well, we walk in the cry
Of a dark night sky
Swallow me peacefully
Follow my heart back inside
So don't worry, don't worry
I'm here by your side, by your side, by your side
We're letting go tonight
Yesterday is gone and you will be okay
Place your past into a book
Burn the pages, let 'em cook
Yesterday is dead and gone and so today
Place your past into a book
Burn the pages, let 'em cook
Don't worry, don't worry
I'm here by your side, by your side, by your side
We're letting go tonight
Yesterday is gone and you will be okay
Place your past into a book
Burn the pages, let 'em cook
Yesterday is dead and gone and so today
Place your past into a book
Burn the pages, let 'em cook
Eye of the Needle
Take me down
I’m feeling now
And if I move on
I admit you’re gone
And I ain’t ready
And I’ll hold steady
Yeah I’ll hold you in my arms … in my arms
And you’re left inside my heart
And your melody is an art
And I won’t let the devil in, I’m stealing time
Through the eye of the needle
Step and repeat
Tears fall to the beat
Smile through the pain
Feel the acid rain
And I ain’t ready
But I’ll hold steady
Yeah I’ll hold you in my arms … in my arms
And you’re left inside my heart
And your melody is an art
And I won’t let the devil in, I’m stealing time
Through the eye of the needle
My bags heavy
Been filled by me
They weigh me down
Carry them round
It’s all mine, all mine
I am blinded by the eye of the needle
And you’re left inside my heart
And your melody is an art
And I won’t let the devil in, I’m stealing time
Through the eye of the needle, eye of the needle
You’re left inside my heart
And your melody is an art
And I won’t let the devil in, I’m stealing time
Through the eye of the needle
Hostage
You bring me to life, then you shut me out
You keep me silent when I should shout
You make me cry and you make me come
You are the cop and I’m on the run
It all begins with just one kiss
I’m held hostage by your love
Put me in cuffs, lock me up
I’m held hostage by your touch
This prison is rough but I can't get enough
This secret love of us keeps me in the cuffs
Go lock me up, and don’t you wanna free us
I’m held hostage by your love
When you let me out and I catch the sun
You give me a taste then you were the one
But you're always leaving, again I'm alone
This secret burns but I'm in prison
It all begins with just one kiss
I’m held hostage by your love
Put me in cuffs, lock me up
I’m held hostage by your touch
This prison is rough but I can't get enough
This secret love of us keeps me in the cuffs
Go lock me up, and don’t you wanna free us
I’m held hostage by your touch
Oh secret effortless lovers
Who have others under the covers
And why do you break my heart?
I'm a criminal in these parts
It all begins with one kiss
I’m held hostage by your love
Put me in cuffs, lock me up
I’m held hostage by your touch
This prison is rough but I can't get enough
This secret love of us keeps me in the cuffs
Go lock me up, and don’t you wanna free us
I’m held hostage by your love
It all begins with just one kiss
I’m held hostage by your love
Put me in cuffs, lock me up
I’m held hostage by your touch
This prison is rough but I can't get enough
This secret love of us keeps me in the cuffs
Go lock me up, and don’t you wanna free us
I’m held hostage by your love
Straight for the Knife
Put on my best dress, I wanted to impress
I put a little make-up on
Put a bow in my hair, wore pretty underwear
Hoping you my take it off
Don’t blow your ready ?? and I'm strapped to my chair
And it ain't cause you're pretty
You were charming until you saw your chance to kill
Your chance to make a story
You went straight for the knife
And I prepared to die, your blade it shines
Looked me straight in the eye
You turned the gas on high, held the flame alight
You wonder why I'm scared of fire
You wonder why you make girls cry
My mascara a mess, harsh words free our princess
Boy you and your promises
And if your goal was to love you scored an epic miss
Now you just have none of this
You went straight for the knife
And I prepared to die, your blade it shines
Look me straight in the eye
You turned the gas on high, held the flame alight
You wonder why I'm scared of fire
You wonder why you make girls cry
Boy you draw me back in
I’m hungry for your bad loving
But will someone find me swinging from the ??
I'm hanging on your every word
You went straight for the knife
And I prepared to die, your blade it shines
Looked me straight in the eye
You turned the gas on high, held the flame alight
You wonder why I'm scared of fire
You wonder why you make girls cry
Fair Game
You terrify me cause you’re a man, you’re not a boy
You got some power and I can’t treat you like a toy
You're the road less traveled by a little girl
You disregard the mess while I try to control the world
Don’t leave me, stay here and frighten me
Don’t leave me, come out, enlighten me
Give me all you got, give me your wallet and your watch
Give me your first born, give me the rainbow and the …
So go and challenge me, take the reins and seat
Watch me squirm baby, you are just what I need
And I've never played a fair game, I’ve always had the upper hand
But what good is intellect and fair play if I can’t respect any man
Yeah, I want to play a fair game
Yeah, I want to play a fair game
You terrify me, we’ve still not kissed and yet I’ve cried
You got too close and I pushed and pushed up and you bite
So I could run, run and that I dig ?? the dust
You saw those teeth marks, they weren’t all yours
You had been thrust into a history that had not worked for me
Into a history from which I could not flee
So go on, shake me, shake until I give it up
Weary my down baby, I know that we can make some love
So go and challenge me, take the reins and seat
Watch me squirm baby, you are just what I need
And I've never played a fair game, I’ve always had the upper hand
But what good is intellect and fair play if I can’t respect any man
Yeah, I want to play a fair game
Yeah, I want to play a fair game
And I've never played a fair game, I’ve always had the upper hand
But what good is intellect and fair play if I can’t respect any man
Yeah, I want to play a fair game
And I've never played a fair game, I’ve always had the upper hand
But what good is intellect and fair play if I can’t respect any man
Yeah, I want to play a fair game
Yeah, I want to play a fair game
Elastic Heart
And another one bites the dust
Oh why can I not conquer love?
And I might have thought that we were one
Wanted to fight this war without weapons
And I wanted it, I wanted it bad
But there were so many red flags
Now another one bites the dust
Yeah let’s be clear, I’ll trust no one
You did not break me
I’m still fighting for peace
I’ve got thick skin and an elastic heart
But your blade it might be too sharp
I’m like a rubber band until you pull too hard
Yeah, I may snap and I move fast
But you won’t see me fall apart
Cause I’ve got an elastic heart
I’ve got an elastic heart
Yeah, I’ve got an elastic heart
And I will stay up through the night
Let’s be clear, won’t close my eyes
And I know that I can survive
I’ll walk through fire to save my life
And I want it, I want my life so bad
I’m doing everything I can
Then another one bites the dust
It’s hard to lose a chosen one
You did not break me
I’m still fighting for peace
I’ve got thick skin and an elastic heart
But your blade it might be too sharp
I’m like a rubber band until you pull too hard
Yeah, I may snap and I move fast
But you won’t see me fall apart
Cause I’ve got an elastic heart
I’ve got an elastic heart
Free the Animal
I love you so, wanna throw you from the roof
The pressure builds, wanna put my hands through you
I squeeze you tight until you take your last breath
Loving you to death, loving you to death
The pressure’s rising, I won’t make it through the night
This love is more ?? than assassin's delight
Just blow me up, or run me down, or cut my throat
And when it’s time for you to die
And detonate me (shoot me like an animal)
And regulate me (kill me with your animal)
Decapitate me (hit me like a baseball)
Emancipate me (free the animal, free the animal)
I love you so I'm putting you in quicksand
You take your chances when you kiss the hitman
The animal's inside of this infinite kiss
Loving you to death, loving you to death
The pressure’s rising, I won’t make it through the night
This love is more ?? than assassin's delight
Just blow me up, or run me down, or cut my throat
And when it’s time for you to die
And detonate me (shoot me like an animal)
And regulate me (kill me with your animal)
Decapitate me (hit me like a baseball)
Emancipate me (free the animal, free the animal)
And detonate me (shoot me like an animal)
And regulate me (kill me with your animal)
Decapitate me (hit me like a baseball)
Emancipate me (free the animal, free the animal)
Murder me, ruin me, look what you do to me
Beautiful ?? but I said ?? on me
Kill me with your loving, kill me with your loving
Entice you, and ice you like sugar and spice
I’ll do all that you want me to be, I’m the beast
And I'll kill you with my loving, I’ll kill you with my loving
Murder me, ruin me, look what you do to me
Beautiful ?? but I said ?? on me
Kill me with your loving, kill me with your loving
Entice you, and ice you like sugar and spice
I’ll do all that you want me to be, I’m the beast
And I'll kill you with my loving, I’ll kill you with my loving
And detonate me (shoot me like an animal)
And regulate me (kill me with your animal)
Decapitate me (hit me like a baseball)
Emancipate me (free the animal, free the animal)
And detonate me (shoot me like an animal)
?? me (kill me with your animal)
Decapitate me (hit me like a baseball)
Emancipate me (free the animal, free the animal)
Fire Meet Gasoline
It's dangerous, to fall in love
But I wanna burn with you tonight, you’re hurting me
There's two of us, we're certain with desire
The pleasures, pain and fire, burning
So come on, I'll take you on, take you on
I ache for love, ache for us
Why don't you come, don’t you come a little closer
So come on now, strike the match, strike the match now
We’re a perfect match, perfect somehow
We were meant for one another, come a little closer
Flame you kindle me, fire meet gasoline
Fire meet gasoline, I’m burning alive
I can barely breathe when you're in love with me
Fire meet gasoline, fire meet gasoline
I got on a knee, when you came back to me
Fire meet gasoline, I’m burning alive
And I can barely breathe when you're in love with me
Fire meet gasoline, burn with me tonight
And we will rise like smoke darting the skies
?? me, on a try, take a bite
So come on now, strike the match, strike the match now
We’re a perfect match, perfect somehow
We were meant for one another, come a little closer
Flame you kindle me, fire meet gasoline
Fire meet gasoline, I’m burning alive
I can barely breathe when you're in love with me
Fire meet gasoline, fire meet gasoline
I got on a knee, when you came back to me
Fire meet gasoline, I’m burning alive
And I can barely breathe when you're in love with me
Fire meet gasoline, burn with me tonight
It's a bad bet, certain death
But I want what I want and I gotta get it
When the fire dies, darkened skies
Hot ash, death match, only smoke is left
It's a bad bet, certain death
But I want what I want and I gotta get it
When the fire dies, darkened skies
Hot ash, death match, only smoke is left
Flame you kindle me, fire meet gasoline
Fire meet gasoline, I’m burning alive
I can barely breathe when you're in love with me
Fire meet gasoline, fire meet gasoline
I got on a knee, when you came back to me
Fire meet gasoline, I’m burning alive
And I can barely breathe when you're in love with me
Fire meet gasoline, burn with me tonight
Burn with me tonight … burn with me tonight
Cellophane
Look at me, I’m such a basket case
Delivered to you wrapped in cellophane
Waiting on your doorstep, every day
Delivery, a basket filled with pain
Patience is your virtue, sane of mind
I’d have fallen through the cracks without your love tonight
I’m your ground hog and I’m skating on thin ice
But you see me at your feet and carry me inside
Can't you see, I'm wrapped in cellophane?
Watch the blood pump through my veins
Electricity floods my brain
Can't hide the pain, can’t hide the pain
When you’re wrapped in cellophane
Look at me, I’m such a basket case
While I fall apart you hide all my pills again
And all the things I need to hear you say
Your watch is on my thoughts
Get right back on the train
Can't you see, I'm wrapped in cellophane?
Watch the blood pump through my veins
Electricity floods my brain
Can't hide the pain, can’t hide the pain
When you’re wrapped in cellophane
Dressed in Black
I had given up
I didn't know who to trust
So I designed a shell
Kept me from heaven and hell
Yeah, I had hit a low
Was all I let myself know
Yeah, I had locked life out
I was imprisoned by doubt
You found me dressed in black
Hiding with a battered back
Life had broken my heart into pieces
You took my hand in yours
You started breaking down my walls
And you covered my heart in kisses
I thought life had passed me by
Released my tears, ignored my pride
Life had broken my heart, my spirit
But then you crossed my path
You quelled my fears, you made me laugh
And you covered my heart in kisses
I was down for the count
Yes, I was down, I was out
And I had lost it all
Cause I was scared I was torn
And I took to the night
I'd given into the fire
And I slipped further down
Yeah, I felt like I had drowned
You found me dressed in black
Hiding with a battered back
Life had broken my heart into pieces
You took my hand in yours
You started breaking down my walls
And you covered my heart in kisses
I thought life had passed me by
Released my tears, ignored my pride
Life had broken my heart, my spirit
But then you crossed my path
You quelled my fears, you made me laugh
And you covered my heart in kisses
I was hopeless and ??, you opened the door for me
Yeah, I was hiding and you let the light in and now I see
As a jewel for the wounded, what they couldn't see untll you set them free
Like a butterfly kissing a child with an eye for the mind of a key
You found me dressed in black
Hiding with a battered back
Life had broken my heart into pieces
You took my hand in yours
You started breaking down my walls
And you covered my heart in kisses
I thought life had passed me by
Released my tears, ignored my pride
Life had broken my heart, my spirit
But then you crossed my path
You quelled my fears, you made me laugh
And you covered my heart in kisses
Covered my heart in kisses
FMG remains superior tho
Not sure I got all the lyrics right but still a powerful song.
sometimes she can be a hard to understand, but the loving you to death is very clear.
