A World Alone

Lorde Lorde

That slow burn wait while it gets dark
Bruising the Sun
I feel grown up with you in your car
I know it's dumb

We've both got a million bad habits to kick
Not sleeping is one
We're biting our nails, you're biting my lip
I'm biting my tongue

The people are talking, people are talking
The people are talking, people are talking

Raise a glass, 'cause I'm not done saying it
They all wanna get rough, get away with it
Let 'em talk, 'cause we're dancing in this world alone
World alone, we're alone

All my fake friends and all of their noise
Complain about work
They're studying business, I study the floor
And you haven't stopped smoking all night

Maybe the internet raised us
Or maybe people are jerks

The people are talking, people are talking (but not you)
The people are talking, people are talking

Raise a glass, 'cause I'm not done saying it
They all wanna get rough, get away with it
Let 'em talk, 'cause we're dancing in this world alone
World alone, we're alone

All the double-edged people and schemes (the people are talking, people are talking)
They make a mess, then go home and get clean (the people are talking, people are talking)
You're my best friend and we're dancing in a world alone (the people are talking, people are talking)
A world alone, we're all alone (the people are talking, people are talking)

I know we're not everlasting
We're a train wreck waiting to happen
One day the blood won't flow so gladly
One day we'll all get still (the people are talking, people are talking)
Get still

The people are talking, people are talking
The people are talking, people are talking

Raise a glass, 'cause I'm not done saying it
They all wanna get rough, get away with it
Let 'em talk, 'cause we're dancing in this world alone
World alone, we're alone

All the double-edged people in schemes (the people are talking, people are talking)
They make a mess, then go home and get clean (the people are talking, people are talking)
You're my best friend and we're dancing in a world alone (the people are talking, people are talking)
A world alone, we're all alone (the people are talking, people are talking)

The people are talking, people are talking
The people are talking, people are talking
The people are talking, people are talking
The people are talking, people are talking

Let 'em talk
