bravado

• bir lorde şarkısıdır.
  
  all my life, ı've been fighting a war
  ı can't talk to you or your friends
  ıt's not only you
  my heart jumps around when ı'm alluded to
  this will not do
  
  'cause ı was raised up
  to be admired, to be noticed
  but when you're withdrawn
  ıt's the closest thing
  to assault when all eyes are on you
  this will not do
  
  ı'm faking glory
  lick my lips, toss my hair
  and turn the smile on
  and the story's brand new
  but ı can take it from here
  ı'll find my own bravado
  
  ıt's a switch flipped
  ıt's a pill tipped back
  ıt's a moon eclipsed, oh whoa
  and ı can tell you that when the lights come on ı'll be ready for this
  ıt's in your blood stream
  a collision of atoms that happens before your eyes
  ıt's a marathon run
  or a mountain you scale without thinking of size
  
  ı was fighting off every little thing that ı thought was out to get me down
  to trip me up and laugh at me but
  ı've learned not to want the quiet of the room with no-one around to find me out
  ı want the applause, the approval, the things that make me go
  oh whoa
  
  ıt's a switch flipped
  ıt's a pill tipped back
  ıt's a moon eclipsed, ohh
  and ı can tell you that when the lights come on ı'll be ready for this
  ıt's in your blood stream
  a collision of atoms that happens before your eyes
  ıts a marathon run
  or a mountain you scale without thinking of size
  
  ı was frightened of every little thing that ı thought was out to get me down
  to trip me up and laugh at me but
  ı've learned not to want the quiet of the room with no-one around to find me out
  ı want the applause, the approval, the things that make me go
  oh whoa
