Yellow Flicker Beat

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 fire

And my necklace is of rope

I tie it and untie

And now people talk to me

But nothing ever hits

So 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 kinds

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
