♡ "LIES" ♡ [Acoustic] | marina AND THE DIAMONDS

Rootless Lyrics

I'm a মেঘ drifting by
Dripping tears from the sky
I'm a শামুক without a shell
A leper with a golden bell

I've got nowhere to go
I'm a stray cat on the roam
Choking on a chicken bone
For a প্রথমপাতা sweet, no sweet home

For a root, for a leaf, for a branch, for a tree
For something, somebody that reminded them of me

Running with my roots pulled up
Caught me cold so they could cut
What there was left of love
I'm rootless, I'm rootless

Work your fingers to the bone
Building castles out of snow
I'm a nomad walking on
Humming to the same old song

Lower case society
Tighten no community
A kingdom without...

Feeling like a loser
Feeling like a bum
Sitting on the outside
Observing the fun

Don't get on my bad side
I can work a gun
Hop into the backseat baby
I'll প্রদর্শনী আপনি some fun

These people are really weird,
And they're giving me the fear
Just because আপনি know my name
Doesn't mean আপনি know my game

I look myself in the face
And whisper "I'm in the wrong place"
Is there আরো to lose than gain
If I go on my own again? (On my own again)

Inside the outsider (on my own again)
Inside the outsider (on my own again)
Inside the outsider (on my own again)
Inside...

People are connecting
Don't know what to say
I'm good at protecting...

You can paint me any color
And I can be your clown
But আপনি ain't got my number
Yeah, আপনি can't pin me down
Yeah, আপনি can't pin me down
Yeah, আপনি can't pin me down

Now I got your back up
What do আপনি not like
Do আপনি think I'm stuck-up
'Cause I'm always picking fights
You might think I'm one thing,
But I am another
You can't call my bluff
Time to back off, motherfucker

Do আপনি really want me to write a feminist anthem
I'm happy cooking ডিনার in the রান্নাঘর for my husband
Yeah, yeah

You can paint me any color
And I can be your clown
But আপনি ain't got my number
No, আপনি can't pin me down
Yeah, আপনি can't pin me down
Yeah,...
