Lyrics
Power
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Painted to pure perfection
We had a real connection
Bodies, aching, overtaken
You kept me at a distance
Not asking any questions
Fingers, Pressing
Learning, lessons
Beautiful lies on a Friday night
Starting to wonder where we lost the magic
Head in the clouds, talking so loud, all I hear is static
I’m not a material girl, everything in your world just feels like plastic
Wearing your crown, it’s pulling me down
You just want the power, you’re not really down for love
You just want the power
The power
No I’m not chasing paper and I’m not faking neither
Take me higher or this will expire
Your self obsessions boring, sorry if I’m ignoring
Mindless actions lead to destruction
Beautiful lies on a Friday night
Starting to wonder where we lost the magic
Head in the clouds, talking so loud, all I hear is static
I’m not a material girl, everything in your world just feels like plastic
Wearing your crown, it’s pulling me down
You just want the power, you’re not really down for love
You just want the power
The power
Everything you do is so cruel
Taking me for a fool
Making me need a new fix
Making me worship you
Everything you do is so cruel
Taking me for a fool
Making me need a new fix
Making me worship you
Beautiful lies on a Friday night
Starting to wonder where we lost the magic
Head in the clouds, talking so loud, all I hear is static
I’m not a material girl, everything in your world just feels like plastic
Wearing your crown, it’s pulling me down
You just want the power, you’re not really down for love
You just want the power
