Lyrics Charli XCX – Kingdom
Text:
It’s all black
Your kingdom’s turned me blank
I’m paper and I’m snow
I’m lost but I can’t slow
It’s all light
The dark it burns my eyes
My bones they used to glow
But now I’m throwing stones
I’m losing where to go
Shadows on my back are moving slow
They twist behind like
Quiet leaves in the wind
And as I ride
These horses will they fly
Falling hard
Falling high
Through your arms
Shadows in my head don’t need no light
They stay through the night
Without you
My lips are turning blue
The water pulls me down
I’m dreamed on bitter sound
This silence screams so loud
I’m locked up
Your kingdom’s like a drug
The chains are made as glass
I’m breaking through the glow
I’m now just stroking off
(One, two, three)
Shadows on my back are moving slow
They twist behind like
Quiet leaves in the wind
And as I ride
These horses will they fly
Falling hard
Falling high
Through your arms
Shadows in my head don’t need no light
They stay through the night
Do wear the rose with bloody thought
It lift you up
Then let you fall
Two rivers flowing on the factory halls
Your kingdom’s come
It’s waiting still
The space between you’ll never fill
I tried, but I could not change your mind
I danced around
And I lost you now
I breathe you out
I cast you out
But if I could
I’d turn back around
