SIA - Dressed In Black Lyrics

SIA - Dressed In Black Lyrics

I had given up

I didn’t know who to trust

So I designed a shell

Kept me from heaven and hell

And I had hit a low

Was all I let myself know

Yeah I had locked my heart

I was imprisoned by dark

You found me dressed in black

Hiding way up at the back

Life had broken my heart into pieces

You took my hand in yours

You started breaking down my walls

And you covered my heart in kisses

I thought life passed me by

Missed my tears, ignored my cries

Life had broken my heart, my spirit

And then you crossed my path

You quelled my fears, you made me laugh

Then you covered my heart in kisses

I was down for the count

I was down I was out

And I had lost it all

'Cause I was scared, I was torn

And I took to the night

I’d given in to the fight

And I slipped further down

I felt like I had drowned

You found me dressed in black

Hiding way up at the back

Life had broken my heart into pieces

You took my hand in yours

You started breaking down my walls

And you covered my heart in kisses

I thought life passed me by

Missed my tears, ignored my cries

Life had broken my heart, my spirit

And then you crossed my path

You quelled my fears, you made me laugh

Then you covered my heart in kisses

I was hopeless and broken

You opened the door for me

Yeah I was hiding and you let the light in

And now I see

That you do for the wounded

What they couldn't seem to

You set them free

Like a butterfly kissing a child with an eye for the minor key

You found me dressed in black

Hiding way up at the back

Life had broken my heart into pieces

You took my hand in yours

You started breaking down my walls

And you covered my heart in kisses

I thought life passed me by

Missed my tears, ignored my cries

Life had broken my heart, my spirit

And then you crossed my path

You quelled my fears, you made me laugh

Then you covered my heart in kisses

Covered my heart in kisses

SIA - Cellophane Lyrics

SIA - Cellophane Lyrics

Look at me I’m such a basket case

Delivered to you wrapped in cellophane

Waiting on your doorstep, out your day

Delivery, a basket filled with pain

Patience is your virtue, saint o’ mine

I’d have fallen through the cracks without your love tonight

I’m your groundhog, and I'm skating on thin ice

But you see me at your feet and carry me inside

Eh eh eh eh

Eh eh eh eh

Oh, can't you see I’m wrapped in cellophane?

Watch the blood pump through my veins

Electricity floods my brain

Can’t hide the pain

Can’t hide the pain

When you’re wrapped in cellophane

Look at me I’m such a basket case

While I fall apart, you hide all my pills again

And all the things I need to hear you say

You’ll watch as all my thoughts get right back on the train

Eh eh eh eh

Eh eh eh eh

Oh, can't you see I’m wrapped in cellophane?

Watch the blood pump through my veins

Electricity floods my brain

Can’t hide the pain

Can’t hide the pain

When you’re wrapped in cellophane

Oh

Can't you see I’m wrapped in cellophane?

Watch the blood pump through my veins

Electricity floods my brain

Can’t hide the pain

Can’t hide the pain

When you’re wrapped in cellophane

SIA - Sia Fire Meet Gasoline Lyrics

It’s dangerous to fall in love, but I

Wanna burn with you tonight

You hurt me

There’s two of us

We’re certain with desire

The pleasure's pain and fire, burning

So come on now

Take you on,

I ache for love, ache for us

Why don't you come, don't you come a little closer?

So come on now

Strike the match

Strike the match now

We're a perfect match

Perfect somehow

We were meant for one another

Come a little closer

Flame and candle meet

Fire meet gasoline

Fire meet gasoline

I’m burning alive

I can barely breathe

And you feel love for me

Fire meet gasoline

Fire meet gasoline

I got all I need

When you came back for me

Fire meet gasoline

I’m burning alive

And I can barely breathe

And you're in love with me

Fire meet gasoline

Burn with me tonight

And we will rise

Like smoke darkening the sky

I'm Eve I wanna try

Take a bite

So come on now

And you're in love with me

But it’s a bad bet, certain death

But I want what I want, and I gotta get it

When the fire dies

Darken the skies

Hot ash, dead match only smoke is left

It’s a bad bet, certain death

But I want what I want, and I gotta get it

When the fire dies

Darken the skies

Hot ash, dead match only smoke is left

Flame and candle meet

Fire meet gasoline

Fire meet gasoline

I’m burning alive

I can barely breathe

And you feel love for me

Fire meet gasoline

Fire meet gasoline

I got all I need

When you came back for me

Fire meet gasoline

SIA - Free the Animal Lyrics

SIA - Free the Animal Lyrics

I love you so

Wanna throw you from the roof

The pressure builds

Wanna put my hands through you

I’ll squeeze you tight until you take your last breath

Loving you to death

Loving you to death

The pressure’s rising I won’t make it through tonight

This love immortal is an assassin's delight

Just blow me up or run me down or cut my throat

And when it's time for you to die

I’ll let you know

Detonate me

Shoot me like a cannon ball

Granulate me

Kill me like an animal

Decapitate me

Hit me like a baseball

Emancipate me

Free the animal

Free the animal

I love you so I’m putting you in quicksand

You take your chances when you kiss the hit-man

The animal’s inside of this infinite jest

Loving you to death, loving you to death

The pressure’s rising I won’t make it through tonight

This love immortal is an assassin's delight

Just blow me up or run me down or cut my throat

And when it's time for you to die

I’ll let you know

[2x]

Detonate me

Shoot me like a cannon ball

Granulate me

Kill me like an animal

Decapitate me

Hit me like a baseball

Emancipate me

Free the animal

Free the animal

[2x]

Murder me, ruin me

Look what you do to me

Beautiful pain baby

Pour acid rain on me

Kill me with your loving

Kill me with your loving

I’ll slice you and dice you

Like sugar and spice

I’ll do all that you want me to

I’ll beat on the beast in you

I’ll kill you with my with my loving

I’ll kill you with my loving

[2x]

Detonate me

Shoot me like a cannon ball

Granulate me

Kill me like an animal

Decapitate me

Hit me like a baseball

Emancipate me

Free the animal

SIA - Elastic Heart Feat. The Weeknd & Diplo Lyrics

SIA - Elastic Heart Feat. The Weeknd And Diplo Lyrics

And another one bites the dust

Oh why can I not conquer love?

And I might have thought that we were one

Wanted to fight this war without weapons

And I wanted it, I wanted it bad

But there were so many red flags

Now another one bites the dust

Yeah, let's be clear, I'll trust no one

You did not break me

I'm still fighting for peace

Well, I've got thick skin and an elastic heart,

But your blade it might be too sharp

I'm like a rubber band until you pull too hard,

I may snap and I move fast

But you won't see me fall apart

'Cause I've got an elastic heart

I've got an elastic heart

Yeah, I've got an elastic heart

And I will stay up through the night

Let's be clear, won't close my eyes

And I know that I can survive

I'll walk through fire to save my life

And I want it, I want my life so bad

I'm doing everything I can

Then another one bites the dust

It's hard to lose a chosen one

You did not break me

I'm still fighting for peace

Well, I've got thick skin and an elastic heart,

But your blade it might be too sharp

I'm like a rubber band until you pull too hard,

I may snap and I move fast

But you won't see me fall apart

'Cause I've got an elastic heart

[3x]

I've got an elastic heart

SIA - Fair Game Lyrics

SIA - Fair Game Lyrics

You terrify me

Cause you’re a man- you’re not a boy

You've got some power

And I can’t treat you like a toy

The road less...Traveled by a little girl

You disregard the mess

While I try to control the world

Don’t leave me

Stay here and frighten me

Don’t leave me

Come now enlighten me

Give me all you got

Give me your wallet and your watch

Give me your first born

Give me the rainbow and the-

So go on and challenge me

Take the reigns and the seat

Watch me squirm baby

But you are just what I need

And I've never played a fair game

I’ve always had the upper hand

But what good is intellect and nerve if

I can’t respect any man

Yeah I want to play a fair game

Yeah I want to play a fair game

You terrify me

We’ve still not kissed

And yet I’ve cried

You got too close in

I pushed and pushed

Opened your bites

So I could run run

And then I did betray the dust

You saw those teeth marks

They weren’t all yours

You had been trusted to a history

That had not worked for me

Into a history from which I could not face

So go on and shake me

Shake until I give it up

When I am in doubt baby

I know that we could make some love

So go on challenge me

Take the reigns and the seat

Watch me squirm baby

But you’re just what I need

And I've never played a fair game

I’ve always had the upper hand

But what good is intellect and nerve if

I can’t respect any man

Yeah I want to play a fair game

Yeah I want to play a fair game

And I never played a fair game

I’ve always had the upper hand

But what good is intellect and nerve if

I can’t respect any man

Yeah I want to play a fair game

Yeah I want to play a fair game

I’ve always had the upper hand

But what good is intellect and nerve if

I can’t respect any man

I want to play a fair game

Oh, I want to play a fair game

I've always had the upper hand

What good is intellect and nerve if

I can't respect any man

I want to play a fair game

SIA - Straight for the Knife Lyrics

SIA - Straight for the Knife Lyrics

Put on my best dress

I wanted to impress

I put a little makeup on

Put a bow in my hair

Wore pretty underwear

Hoping you might take it off

Don’t know if you really care

But I’m strapped to my chair

And it ain’t cause you’re pretty

You were charming

Until you saw your chance to kill

Your chance to make history

You went straight for the knife

And I prepared to die

Your blade, it shines

Looked me straight in the eye

You turned the gas on high

Held the flame alight

You wonder why I'm scared of fire

You wonder why you make girls cry

My mascara a mess

Harsh words for your princess

Boy, you and your promises

If your goal was to love

You scored an epic miss

Now you'll just have memories

You went straight for the knife

And I prepared to die

Your blade, it shines

Looked me straight in the eye

You turned the gas on high

Held the flame alight

You wonder why I'm scared of fire

You wonder why you make girls cry

Boy, you draw me back in

Hungry for your bad loving

But will someone find me swinging from the rafters

From hanging on your every word

You went straight for the knife

And I prepared to die

Your blade, it shines

Looked me straight in the eye

You turned the gas on high

Held the flame alight

You wonder why I'm scared of fire

You wonder why you make girls cry

SIA - Hostage Lyrics

SIA - Hostage Lyrics

You bring me to life

Then you shut me out

You keep me silent

When I should shout

You make me cry and you make me come

You are the cop and I'm on the run

It all begins with just one kiss

I'm held hostage by your love

Put me in cuffs

Lock me up

I'm held hostage by your touch

This prison is rough but

I can't get enough

The secret life of us keeps me in handcuffs

Don’t lock me up

Don’t you wanna free us

I'm held hostage by your love

Then you let me out

And I catch the sun

You give me a taste of you and no one

But you always leave

And again I'm alone

This secret burns but I'm imprisoned

It all begins with just one kiss

I'm held hostage by your love

Put me in cuffs

Lock me up

I'm held hostage by your touch

This prison is rough but

I can't get enough

The secret life of us keeps me in handcuffs

Don’t lock me up

Don’t you wanna free us

I'm held hostage by your love

The secret life

Of lovers who have others

Under the covers

And while

You break my heart

I’m a criminal in these parts

It all begins with just one kiss

I'm held hostage by your love

Put me in cuffs

Lock me up

I'm held hostage by your touch

This prison is rough but

I can't get enough

The secret life of us keeps me in handcuffs

Don’t lock me up

Don’t you wanna free us

I'm held hostage by your love

It all begins with just one kiss

I'm held hostage by your love

Put me in cuffs

Lock me up

I'm held hostage by your touch

This prison is rough but

I can't get enough

The secret life of us keeps me in handcuffs

Don’t lock me up

Don’t you wanna free us

I'm held hostage by your love

SIA - Eye of the Needle Lyrics

SIA - Eye of the Needle Lyrics

Take me down

I’m feeling now

And if I move on

I admit you're gone

And I ain’t ready

But I’ll hold steady

Yeah I’ll hold you

In my arms, in my arms

In my arms

And you're locked inside my heart

And your melody's an art

And I won't let the terror in I'm stealing time

Through the eye of the needle

Step and repeat

Tears fall to the beat

Smile through the pain

Feel the acid rain

And I ain't ready

But I'll hold steady

Yeah I'll hold you

In my arms, in my arms

In my arms

And you're locked inside my heart

And your melody's an art

And I won't let the terror in I'm stealing time

Through the eye of the needle

My bag's heavy

Been filled by me

They weigh me down

Carry them round

It's all mine, all mine

Oh I am blinded

By the eye of the needle

And you're locked inside my heart

And your melody's an art

And I won't let the terror in I'm stealing time

Through the eye of the needle

Eye of the needle

And you're locked inside my heart

And your melody's an art

And I won't let the terror in I'm stealing time

Through the eye of the needle

SIA - Burn The Pages Lyrics

SIA - Burn The Pages Lyrics

You're dark grey like a storm cloud

Swelling up with rain that is desperate to be let out

And I know it’s a heavy load carrying those tears around

Carrying those fears around

Worry makes the world go round

You're twisted up like a slipknot

Tied by a juice head, who just took his T-shirt

And I know there's a hungry dog

Tugging at your frayed ends

But he’s just playing with you, he just wants to be your friend

So don’t worry don’t worry

I’m here by your side

By your side, by your side

We’re letting go tonight

Yesterday is gone and you will be OK

Place your past into a book

Burn the pages let them cook

Yesterday is dead and gone and so today

Place your past into a book

Burn the pages let them cook

Eyes stinging from the black smoke

New hope, loose rope

Risen from the undertow

All is well we welcome the cry of the dark night sky

Swallow me peacefully, follow my heart back inside

So don’t worry don’t worry

I’m here by your side

By your side, by your side

We’re letting go tonight

Yesterday is gone and you will be OK

Place your past into a book

Burn the pages let them cook

Yesterday is dead and gone and so today

Place your past into a book

Burn the pages let them cook

Don’t worry don’t worry

I’m here by your side

By your side, by your side

We’re letting go tonight

Yesterday is gone and you will be OK

Place your past into a book

Burn the pages let them cook

Yesterday is dead and gone and so today

Place your past into a book

Burn the pages let them cook

SIA - Big Girls Cry Lyrics

SIA - Big Girls Cry Lyrics

Tough girl in the fast lane

No time for love

No time for hate

No drama

No time for games

Tough girl whose soul aches

I come home

On my own

Check my phone 

Nothing, though

Act busy 

Order in 

Pay TV 

It's agony

I may cry ruining my make up

Wash away all things you've taken

I don't care if I don't look pretty

Big girls cry when their hearts are breaking

Big girls cry when their hearts are breaking

Big girls cry when their heart is breaking

Tough girl

I'm in pain

It's lonely at the top

Block outs and airplanes 

I still pour you a glass of champagne

Tough girl whose soul aches

I come home

On my own

Check my phone 

Nothing, though

Act busy 

Order in 

Pay TV 

It's agony

I may cry ruining my make up

Wash away all the things you've taken

And I don't care if I don't look pretty

Big girls cry when their hearts are breaking

Big girls cry when their hearts are breaking

Big girls cry when their hearts are breaking

I wake up I wake up I wake up

I wake up I wake up I wake up…alone

I may cry ruining my make up

Wash away all the things you've taken

And I don't care if I don't look pretty

Big girls cry when their hearts are breaking

Big girls cry when their hearts are breaking

Big girls cry when their heart is breaking
