but there's a scream inside that we all try to hide we hold on so tight, we cannot deny eats us alive, oh it eats us alive yes, there's a scream inside that we all try to hide we hold on so tight, but i don't wanna die, no i don't wanna die, i don't wanna die
are you deranged like me? are you strange like me? lighting matches just to swallow up the flame like me? do you call yourself a fucking hurricane like me? pointing fingers cause you'll never take the blame like me?
i'm gonna swing from the chandelier, from the chandelier i'm gonna live like tomorrow doesn't exist like it doesn't exist i'm gonna fly like a bird through the night, feel my tears as they dry i'm gonna swing from the chandelier, from the chandelier
they said i couldn't, they told me that i wouldn't but if they could see me now they'd see i'm something, that i'm not scared of nothing and the world will hear me shout
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 to keep up with the red, orange, yellow flicker beat sparking up my heart
i'm not their hero but that doesn't mean that i wasn't brave i never walked the party line doesn't mean that i was never afraid i'm not your hero but that doesn't mean we're not one and the same
in the morning light let my roots take flight watch me fall above like a vicious dove they don't see me come, who can blame them? they never seem to catch my eye but i never wondered why
i've given too much of myself and now it's driving me crazy (i'm crying out for help) Sometimes i wish someone would just come here and save me... Save me from myself
the scary part, the aftershock, the moment it takes to fall apart the time we have, the task at hand, the love it takes to destroy a man the ecstasy, the being free, the big black cloud over you and me and after that, the upwards fall, and were we angels after all? i don't know, i don't know...
i was here i lived, i loved i was here i did, i've done everything that i wanted and it was more than i thought it would be i will leave my mark so everyone will know i was here
i opened my mouth to scream and shout, i waved my arms and flapped about. but i couldn't scream and i couldn't shout, couldn't scream and i couldn't shout.

ｆｉｇｈｔ ｓｏｎｇ － ｒａｃｈｅｌ ｐｌａｔｔｅｎ
wrecking balls inside my brain
i will scream them loud tonight
can you hear my voice this time?
ｂｉｒｄ ｓｅｔ ｆｒｅｅ － ｓｉａ
we hold on so tight, we cannot deny
eats us alive, oh it eats us alive
yes, there's a scream inside that we all try to hide
we hold on so tight, but i don't wanna die, no
i don't wanna die, i don't wanna die
ｇａｓｏｌｉｎｅ － ｈａｌｓｅｙ
lighting matches just to swallow up the flame like me?
do you call yourself a fucking hurricane like me?
pointing fingers cause you'll never take the blame like me?
ｃｈａｎｄｅｌｉｅｒ － ａｍａｎｄａ ｐａｌｍｅｒ
i'm gonna live like tomorrow doesn't exist
like it doesn't exist
i'm gonna fly like a bird through the night, feel my tears as they dry
i'm gonna swing from the chandelier, from the chandelier
ｓｅｅ ｍｅ ｎｏｗ － ｌｉｔｔｌｅ ｍｉｘ
but if they could see me now
they'd see i'm something, that i'm not scared of nothing
and the world will hear me shout
ｙｅｌｌｏｗ ｆｌｉｃｋｅｒ ｂｅａｔ － ｌｏｒｄｅ
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 to keep up with the red, orange, yellow flicker beat sparking up my heart
ｄｕｓｔ ｔｏ ｄｕｓｔ － ｔｈｅ ｃｉｖｉｌ ｗａｒｓ
it's not what you say
it's not your laughter
that gives you away
you're just lonely
you've been lonely too long
ｉ＇ｍ ｎｏｔ ｙｏｕｒ ｈｅｒｏ － ｔｅｇａｎ ａｎｄ ｓａｒａ
but that doesn't mean that i wasn't brave
i never walked the party line
doesn't mean that i was never afraid
i'm not your hero
but that doesn't mean we're not one and the same
ｔｈｅ ｃｒｏｗ － ｈｕｒｔｓ
if you make her sing when she's coming she will let you know…
ｔｉｐｔｏｅ － ｉｍａｇｉｎｅ ｄｒａｇｏｎｓ
watch me fall above like a vicious dove
they don't see me come, who can blame them?
they never seem to catch my eye but i never wondered why
ｓａｖｅ ｔｈｅ ｈｅｒｏ － ｂｅｙｏｎｃｅ
and now it's driving me crazy
(i'm crying out for help)
Sometimes i wish someone would
just come here and save me...
Save me from myself
ｔｈｅ ｎｉｇｈｔ ｓｔａｒｔｓ ｈｅｒｅ － ｓｔａｒｓ
the time we have, the task at hand, the love it takes to destroy a man
the ecstasy, the being free, the big black cloud over you and me
and after that, the upwards fall, and were we angels after all?
i don't know, i don't know...
ｆｌｙ － ｎｉｃｋｉ ｍｉｎａｊｉ （ｆｅａｔ． ｓｉａ）
i came to win, to survive, to prosper, to rise
to fly
to fly
ｉ ｗａｓ ｈｅｒｅ － ｂｅｙｏｎｃｅ
i lived, i loved
i was here
i did, i've done everything that i wanted
and it was more than i thought it would be
i will leave my mark so everyone will know
i was here
ｓｈｅ ｕｓｅｄ ｔｏ ｂｅ ｍｉｎｅ － ｊｅｓｓｉｅ ｍｕｅｌｌｅｒ
she is good but she lies
she is hard on herself
she is broken and won't ask for help
she is messy but she's kind
ｂｉｒｄ ｓｏｎｇ － ｆｌｏｒｎｃｅ ａｎｄ ｔｈｅ ｍａｃｈｉｎｅ
i waved my arms and flapped about.
but i couldn't scream and i couldn't shout,
couldn't scream and i couldn't shout.
