Yellow Flicker Beat

INSTRUMENTAL

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
It 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

And now people talk to me
But nothing ever hits home
People talk to me
And all the voices just burn holes

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 the
Red, orange yellow flicker beat
Sparking up my heart

We're at the start, the colours disappear
I never watch the stars
There's so much down here
So I just try keep up with the
Red, orange yellow flicker beat
Sparking up my heart

I dream all year
But they're not the sweet kind
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 the
Red, orange yellow flicker beat
Sparking up my heart

We're at the start, the colours disappear
I never watch the stars
There's so much down here
So I just try keep up with the
Red, orange yellow flicker beat
Sparking up my heart

And this is the red, orange yellow flicker beat
Sparking up my heart
And this is the red, orange yellow flicker beat
Beat, beat, beat
