Broken Glass lyrics - Sia

Lay down your arms
I don't wanna fight anymore
Rough seas will be calm
Hold on while we weather the storm

We fall down like dogs playing dead
But our love's not worth playing chicken with

I'm not discarding you like broken glass
There are no winners when the die is cast
There's only tears when it's the final chance
So don't give up, it's just young lovers' romance
So don't give up, it's just young lovers' romance

This too shall pass
We're right where we're meant to be
There's things I don't ask
What I don't know can't hurt me

We fall down like dogs playing dead
But our love's not worth playing chicken with

I'm not discarding you like broken glass
There are no winners when the die is cast
There's only tears when it's the final chance
So don't give up, it's just young lovers' romance
So don't give up, it's just young lovers' romance
So don't give up, it's just young lovers' romance
So don't give up, it's just young lovers' romance
I'm not discarding you like broken glass
There are no winners when the die is cast
There's only tears when it's the final chance
So don't give up, it's just young lovers' romance
I'm not discarding you like broken glass
There are no winners when the die is cast
There's only tears when it's the final change
So don't give up, it's just young lovers' romance
Don't give up, it's just young lovers' romance
Don't give up, it's just young lovers' romance

I'm not discarding you like broken glass
I'm not discarding you like broken glass
I'm not discarding you like broken glass
So don't give up, it's just young lovers' romance

Space Between lyrics - Sia

A neverending sentence in my head
We lay hollow in the emptiness
I'm too tired to push you from the bed

No more fighting, there's no more fighting
There's no more fighting for us

Fill the void in our bed
The space between is deafening
Oh, we don't bend, we're breaking
The space between is deafening
The space between is deafening

No one's moving, we lack the courage to
We lay in stalemate, wishing the other would
But we're too tired, we let the embers cool

No more fighting, there's no more fighting
There's no more fighting for us

Fill the void in our bed
The space between is deafening
Oh, we don't bend, we're breaking
The space between is deafening

No more fighting, we've given up now
Silence says more than words
Imagination cures loneliness
When you become a prisoner

Fill the void in our bed
The space between is deafening
Oh, we don't bend, we're breaking
The space between is deafening

First Fighting A Sandstorm lyrics - Sia

I fought so hard for your heart, on the way down
And I thought that I could save you from destruction

But I was never in contro-o-ol, never in control
Fighting another war
No I was never in contro-o-ol, never in control
Fighting another war

Was fist fighting a sandstorm
Now I ain't boxing anymore
I'm letting go and it's beautiful
Fist fighting a sandstorm
Fist fighting a sandstorm
Is a losing battle
Was fist fighting a sandstorm
Fighting a sandstorm
Fighting a sandstorm
Was fist fighting a sandstorm
Was fist fighting a sandstorm
But I won't fight it anymore
I'm letting go and it's beautiful

I was hurting, I couldn't let go, I couldn't leave you
And I told myself, though it was hell, that we'd push through

But I was never in contro-o-ol, never in control
Fighting another war
No I was never in contro-o-ol, never in control
Fighting another war

Was fist fighting a sandstorm
Now I ain't boxing anymore
I'm letting go and it's beautiful
Fist fighting a sandstorm
Fist fighting a sandstorm
Is a losing battle
Was fist fighting a sandstorm
Fighting a sandstorm
Fighting a sandstorm
Was fist fighting a sandstorm
Was fist fighting a sandstorm
But I won't fight it anymore
I'm letting go and it's beautiful

But I was never in contro-o-ol, never in control
Fighting another war
No I was never in contro-o-ol, never in control
Fighting another war

Was fist fighting a sandstorm
Now I ain't boxing anymore
I'm letting go and it's beautiful
Fist fighting a sandstorm
Fist fighting a sandstorm
Is a losing battle
Was fist fighting a sandstorm
Fighting a sandstorm
Fighting a sandstorm
Was fist fighting a sandstorm
Was fist fighting a sandstorm
But I won't fight it anymore
I'm letting go and it's beautiful

Summer Rain lyrics - Sia

My summer rain

I prepared for the worst in a storm
It doesn't take long before I'm shaking
I watch the news end, wait for the forecast
I fill a tall glass, try to be patient
It's been a long time, I feel my temperature rise
You might be moving too fast, oh
Wait for the sirens, sit in the silence
I sit on my hands

I feel the breeze, feel the sea swelling and drowning me
I feel the night, feel the sunlight, I feel everything
I feel your love, and I'm done and I surrender now
I want whatever you've got so bring 'em, bring 'em down

I thought you were a hurricane
Turns out you were the summer rain
You came
To wash away all of my pain
I needed you in every way
My summer rain
My summer rain
My summer rain
My summer rain

I was mistaken, but I feel safe here
So now we're making some kind of rainbow
The storm has broken, two words are spoken
And I am soaking in all your love so
Love me for all time, and feel my temperature rise
Thought you were moving too fast, oh
But I was just scared to let you into my head
And let you see my past

I feel the breeze, feel the sea swelling and drowning me
I feel the night, feel the sunlight, I feel everything
I feel your love, and I'm done and I surrender now
I want whatever you've got so bring 'em, bring 'em down

I thought you were a hurricane
Turns out you were the summer rain
You came
To wash away all of my pain
I needed you in every way
My summer rain

When you live in fear
You miss everything
I was struggling
When you stop fighting
The war within
Everybody wins

I thought you were a hurricane
Turns out you were the summer rain
You came
To wash away all of my pain
I needed you in every way
My summer rain
My summer rain
My summer rain
My summer rain

Chandelier lyrics - Sia

Party girls don't get hurt
Can't feel anything, when will I learn
I push it down, push it down

I'm the one "for a good time call"
Phone's blowin' up, ringin' my doorbell
I feel the love, feel the love

1, 2, 3 1, 2, 3 drink
1, 2, 3 1, 2, 3 drink
1, 2, 3 1, 2, 3 drink

Throw 'em back, till I lose count

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

But I'm holding on for dear life, won't look down won't open my eyes
Keep my glass full until morning light, 'cause I'm just holding on for tonight
Help me, I'm holding on for dear life, won't look down won't open my eyes
Keep my glass full until morning light, 'cause I'm just holding on for tonight
On for tonight

Sun is up, I'm a mess
Gotta get out now, gotta run from this
Here comes the shame, here comes the shame

1, 2, 3 1, 2, 3 drink
1, 2, 3 1, 2, 3 drink
1, 2, 3 1, 2, 3 drink

Throw 'em back till I lose count

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

But I'm holding on for dear life, won't look down, won't open my eyes
Keep my glass full until morning light, 'cause I'm just holding on for tonight
Help me, I'm holding on for dear life, won't look down, won't open my eyes
Keep my glass full until morning light, 'cause I'm just holding on for tonight
On for tonight

On for tonight
'Cause I'm just holding on for tonight
Oh, I'm just holding on for tonight
On for tonight
On for tonight
'Cause I'm just holding on for tonight
'Cause I'm just holding on for tonight
Oh, I'm just holding on for tonight
On for tonight
On for tonight

Big Girls Cry lyrics - Sia

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

[Pre-Chorus:]
I'm at home
On my own
Check my phone
Nothing though
Act busy
Order in
Pay TV
It's agony

[Chorus:]
I may cry, ruining my makeup
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

Tough girl
I'm in pain
It's lonely at the top
Blackouts and airplanes
I still pour you a glass of champagne
Tough girl
Whose soul aches

[Pre-Chorus:]
I'm at home
On my own
Check my phone
Nothing though
Act busy
Order in
Pay TV
It's agony

[Chorus:]
I may cry, ruining my makeup
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
I wake up, I wake up, I wake up
I wake up, I wake up, I wake up,
I wake up alone

[Chorus:]
I may cry, ruining my makeup
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

Burn The Pages lyrics - Sia

You're dark grey like a storm cloud
Swelling up with rage 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 juicehead who just took his T-shot, 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!

[Chorus:]
Yesterday is gone and you will be OK
Place your past into a book, burn the pages
Let 'em cook oh
Yesterday is dead and gone and so today
Place your past into a book, burn the pages
Let 'em 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!

[Chorus:]
Yesterday is gone and you will be OK
Place your past into a book, burn the pages
Let 'em cook oh
Yesterday is dead and gone and so today
Place your past into a book, burn the pages
Let 'em cook

Don't worry, don't worry I'm here by your side
By your side, by your side
We're letting go tonight!

[Chorus:]
Yesterday is gone and you will be OK
Place your past into a book, burn the pages
Let 'em cook oh
Yesterday is dead and gone and so today
Place your past into a book, burn the pages
Let 'em cook

Eye Of The Needle lyrics - Sia

Take me down
I'm feeling now
And if I move on
I admit you're gone
And I ain't ready
And I'll hold steady
Yeah I'll hold you in my arms
In my arms, in my arms

Whoa

[Chorus:]
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
Whoa
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

Whoa

[Chorus:]
And you're locked inside my heart
Whoa
And your melody's an art
Whoa
And I won't let the terror in, I'm stealing time
Through the eye of the needle

[Bridge:]
My bags heavy
Been filled by me
They weigh me down
Carry them 'round
It's all mine all mine
I am blinded by the eye of the needle

[Chorus:]
And you're locked inside my heart
Whoa
And your melody's an art
Whoa
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
Whoa
And your melody's an art
Whoa
And I won't let the terror in, I'm stealing time
Through the eye of the needle

Oh oh
Whoa
Oh oh
Whoa yeah

Hostage lyrics - Sia

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

[Chorus:]
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 leaving, and again I'm alone
This secret burns but I'm imprisoned

[Chorus:]
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

[Bridge:]
Secret life of lovers who have others
Under the covers
And while you break my heart
I'm a criminal in these parts

[Chorus:]
It all begins with 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

Straight For The Knife lyrics - Sia

Put on my best dress, I wanted to impress
I put a little make-up on
Put a bow in my hair, wore pretty underwear
Hoping you might take it off
Don't know your etiquette 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

[Chorus:]
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

[Chorus:]
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
I'm hungry for your bad loving
But will someone find me swinging from the rafters
From hanging on your every word

[Chorus:]
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
You wonder why you make girls cry

Fair Game lyrics - Sia

You terrify me, cause you're a man, you're not a boy
You got some power, and I can't treat you like a toy
You're the road less travelled 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 and challenge me, take the reins and see
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 airplay
If I can't respect any man
Oh 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 and I pushed and pushed hoping you'd bite
So I could run, run and that I did but through the dust
You saw those teeth marks, they weren't all yours you had been thrust
Into a history, that had not worked for me
Into a history, from which I could not flee
So go on shake me, shake until I give it up
Wearing me down baby, I know that we could make some love

So go and challenge me, take the reigns and see
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 airplay
If I can't respect any man
I want to play a fair game
I want to play a fair game

And I've never played a fair game
I've always had the upper hand
But what good is intellect and airplay
If I can't respect any man
I want to play a fair game

And I've never played a fair game
I've always had the upper hand
But what good is intellect and airplay
If I can't respect any man
I want to play a fair game
I want to play a fair game

Elastic Heart lyrics - Sia (feat. The Weeknd & Diplo)

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,
Yeah, 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
And 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
(You did not break me, no)
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,
Yeah, I may snap and I move fast
But you won't see me fall apart
'Cause I've got an elastic heart

Oh oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh

[2x:]
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,
Yeah, 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

Free The Animal lyrics - Sia

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

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

Oh oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh
Free the animal
Oh oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh
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

[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 be
I'm a beast
And 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
Free the animal

Oh oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh
Free the animal
Oh oh oh oh oh

Free the animal
Free the animal

Fire Meet Gasoline lyrics - Sia

It's dangerous to fall in love
But I want to burn with you tonight
Hurt me
There's two of us
Bristling with desire
The pleasure's pain and fire
Burn me

So come on
I'll take you on, 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

[Chorus:]
Flame you came to me
Fire meet gasoline
Fire meet gasoline
I'm burning alive
I can barely breathe
When you're here loving me
Fire meet gasoline
Fire meet gasoline
I got all I need
When you came after me
Fire meet gasoline
I'm burning alive
And I can barely breathe
When you're here loving me
Fire meet gasoline
Burn with me tonight

And we will fly
Like smoke darknin' the skies
I'm Eve, I want to try
Take a bite

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

[Chorus:]
Flame you came to me
Fire meet gasoline
Fire meet gasoline
I'm burning alive
I can barely breathe
When you're here loving me
Fire meet gasoline
Fire meet gasoline
I got all I need
When you came after me
Fire meet gasoline
I'm burning alive
And I can barely breathe
When you're here loving me
Fire meet gasoline
Burn with me tonight

[Bridge:]
But it's a bad debt
Certain death
But I want what I want
And I gotta get it
When the fire dies
Darkened skies
Hot ash, dead match
Only smoke is left
It's a bad debt
Certain death
But I want what I want
And I got to get it
When the fire dies
Dark in the skies
Hot as a match
Only smoke is left

[Chorus:]
Flame you came to me
Fire meet gasoline
Fire meet gasoline
I'm burning alive
I can barely breathe
When you're here loving me
Fire meet gasoline
Fire meet gasoline
I got all I need
When you came after me
Fire meet gasoline
I'm burning alive
And I can barely breathe
When you're here loving me
Fire meet gasoline
Burn with me tonight

Burn with me tonight
Burn with me tonight
Burn with me tonight
Eh eh

Cellophane lyrics - Sia

Look at me I’m such a basket case
Delivered to you wrapped in cellophane
Waiting on your doorstep, every 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'll 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

Dressed In Black lyrics - Sia

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

"We Are Born" (2010)

The Fight lyrics - Sia

We are born
Without a care
As we grow old
But unaware
As we grow tall
Begin to falter
We want to know ourselves
Spread love to all

But we fall down cause we are human
Yes sweet anger will feed the hunger
Yes we push through
Just me and you

[Chorus]
We made it through the darkness to the light
Uh huh we fought
But still we won the fight
Oh yes, we stand to gain love

A fantasy for you and me
A beauty light and reality
No need to feel
The proof that something
For all of it is love and harmony

But we falter and yes we are flawed
As we play victim to such conviction
And breathe heavily
Both you and me

[Chorus]

For the day by day
Worried we would fail
How we flailed and we wailed and we screamed in pain
Took it step by step
We could not forget the wounds we felt
And how we screamed for help
From the dark, dark nights when you held me tight
And we prayed for light to rescue us
Yeah, we were distressed
Now we're nothing less
We are strong
We are blessed
We are united

[Chorus x2]

Stop Trying lyrics - Sia

We like you
This is a game already won
The time has come
Stop trying
We like you
This is a game already won
The time has come
Stop trying

Take a break
You must be tired from the strain
Take a break
I might ask our pain
Please, slow down
You are making my head spin
Please, slow down
You have all I have to give

We like you
This is a game already won
The time has come
Stop trying
We like you
This is a game already won
The time has come
Stop trying

You don’t know
You have everything you need
You won’t grow till you get down on your knees
Say goodbye and do not dissect your life
Say goodbye, there’s no need to apologize

We like you
This is a game already won
The time has come
Stop trying
We like you
This is a game already won
The time has come
Stop trying

We like you
This is a game already won
The time has come
Stop trying
We like you
This is a game already won
The time has come
Stop trying

We like you
This is a game already won
The time has come
Stop trying
We like you
This is a game already won
The time has come
Stop crying

You've Changed lyrics - Sia

Stealing hearts was your pastime
I saw girls falling hook line
You stole kisses and threw them aside
Hits and misses your love-side

You've changed for the better
You've changed for the better

Making waves was your hobby
And I asked you to hold me
And I knew it
You do it in front of the world
And I'll end up different from the other girls

You've changed for the better
You've changed for the better

Be Good To Me lyrics - Sia

Yeah, ay, ay

He said, "Darling don't forget
There is sweetness left on earth for you and me"
He says, "Honey, no regrets"
We just do our best and die,
I just wanna cry 'cause you'll be

Be good to me, be good to me
I need you now more than ever oh ooooh
I'm faithful, me, and when you're down
I'll be around, I'll be your every weather

He says, this is just today
It will be okay, and I, I am listening
He says, you can trust in me
You'll get all you'll need and how can I doubt you?
'Cause you'll be

Be good to me, be good to me
I need you now more than ever
I'm faithful, me, and when you're down
I'll be around, I'll be your every weather

You light up,
Light up the dark and
You're all the good within me
My heart is filled, rebuilt

Be good to me, be good to me

Hurting Me Now lyrics - Sia

You, you don't like my hair
You don't like what I wear
I'm trying, trying, you see I'm trying
Why you try to change me all the time?
You, you say I talk too much
I know it drives you nuts
You tell me you wish I was better, better, yeah
You roll your eyes forgetting I am in a room

[Chorus:]
You're hurting me now, you take me down, you don't even know it
You think it's a joke but, baby, you don't, you don't even know it
You're hurting me now, you take me down, you don't even know it
You think it's a joke but, baby, you don't, you don't even know it

You, you say I sing too loud
I want you to be proud
I want you screaming out, "That girl is mine, I love her, love her,"
But you've already tuned me out
You, you know these words you say
Are causing us decay
You feel like I'm withdrawing
I am running away
You're pushing, you're pushing me

[Chorus]

[Bridge x4:]
Don't want you to blow it, you're hurting me
I know you don't know it

[Chorus]

Never Gonna Leave Me lyrics - Sia

We are anything, but unremarkable
We found things, that we have given up on
We were two, peas in a pod
Oh yeh

Pleasing me, seven good deeds
I'm a man of strengths, a man indeed
We found things, we had given up upon

Now that you have gone
I know it wont be long
You will be waiting for me
Faithfully
Baby

Now I'm taking your love from above
You're never gonna leave me
I will carry you on for so long
Your love is never gonna leave me

Now I'm taking your love from above you're here
And you're never gonna leave me
I will carry you on for so long
Your love is never gonna leave me

You're never gonna leave me

You touched my heart and then gave me yours
I was so afraid I tried to ignore all the butterflies,
Taking me over

We are anything, but unremarkable
We found things, that we have given up on
We found love

Now that you have gone
I know it wont be long
You will be waiting for me
Faithfully
Baby

Now I'm taking your love from above you're here
And you're never gonna leave me
I will carry you on for so long
Your love is never gonna leave me

Now I'm taking your love from above you're here
And you're never gonna leave me
I will carry you on for so long
Your love is never gonna leave me

Your love is never gonna leave me
Your love is never gonna leave me

Now that you have gone
I know it wont be long
You will be waiting for me
Faithfully
Baby

Now I'm taking your love from above you're here
And you're never gonna leave me
I will carry you on for so long
Your love is never gonna leave me

Now I'm taking your love from above you're here
And you're never gonna leave me
I will carry you on for so long
Your love is never gonna leave me

Cloud lyrics - Sia

While aware the hour.
Into something new.
Throw away the flowers.
They make you feel blue.
Throwing stones at stranger.
Waiting for the fight.
Throwing stones at birds who struggle to take flight.

[Chorus]
I am a dark cloud swelling with hate.
I am a dark cloud swelling with hate.

Get it out your system.
Get it out of you.
Send them home with blisters.
Send the home with truth.
Send them away the daughters.
Blind them with your hoove try to save the daughters.
Try to sell the news

[Chorus x3]

[Instrumental]

[Chorus x2]

I'm In Here lyrics - Sia

I'm in here.
Can anybody see me?
Can anybody help?
I'm in here.
A prisoner of history,
Can anybody help?

Can't you hear my call?
Are you coming to get me now?
I've been waiting for
You to come rescue me.
I need you to hold
All of the sadness I cannot live with inside of me.

I'm in here.
I'm trying to tell you something.
Can anybody help?
I'm in here.
I'm calling out but you can't hear.
Can anybody help?

Can't you hear my call?
Are you coming to get me now?
I've been waiting for
You to come rescue me.
I need you to hold
All of the sadness I cannot live with inside of me.

I'm crying out,
I'm breaking down,
I am fearing it all,
Stuck inside these walls,
Tell me there is hope for me.
Is anybody out there listening?

Can't you hear my call?
Are you coming to get me now?
I've been waiting for
You to come rescue me.
I need you to hold
All of the sadness I cannot live with inside of me.

Can't you hear my call?
Are you coming to get me now?
I've been waiting for
You to come rescue me.
I need you to hold
All of the sadness I cannot live with inside of me.

I'm in here.
Can anybody see me?
Can anybody help?

The Co-Dependent lyrics - Sia

Feels like we are married and I haven't run away, run away, run away
So many years I've carried you in my arms
Yet I stay, yet I stay, yet I stay
And still I come a-running when I hear the telephone, telephone, telephone
And I ask for absolutely nothing in return, in return, in return

I'm gonna watch you drink it all
I'm gonna watch you fall
You'll find me by your side
If you find me at all

So here it is on offer
Everything I have to give, have to give, have to give
My love for you allows me not to judge the way you live, way you live, way you live
So just remember that whenever you may feel alone, feel alone, feel alone
Yeah, I am here there's nothing to fear
I will be your home, be your home, be your home

I'm gonna watch you drink it all
I'm gonna watch you fall
You'll find me by your side
If you find me at all

I'm gonna watch you drink it all
I'm gonna watch you fall
You'll find me by your side
If you find me at all

I'm gonna watch you drink it all
I'm gonna watch you fall
You'll find me by your side
If you find me at all

I'm gonna watch you drink it all
I'm gonna watch you fall
You'll find me by your side
If you find me at all

Big Girl Little Girl lyrics - Sia

Big girl, little girl, you're a ripcurl,
Tearing your way through this huge swirl,
I know you're mad, you're on a war path,
You know you dont want to be bury more

Friends
Then we could be friends,
I wish that we were friends,
But you can't stop, stop seeing us as the enemy

Yeah
Oh oh oh oh

Big girl, it's hell being unwell,
You know you're stuck where you fell,
Your words give birth like a rosemary,
You know you dont want to bury more

Friends,
Then we could be friends,
I wish that we were friends,
But you can't stop, stop seeing us as the enemy

Friends,
Then we could be friends,
I wish that we were friends,
But you can't stop, stop seeing us as the enemy

Can't bury more friends,
Then we could be friends,
I wish that we were friends,
But you can't stop, stop seeing us as the enemy

Friends,
Yeah we could be friends,
I wish that we were friends,
But you can't stop, stop seeing us as the enemy

You know with every cruel word that you utter,
That you bury yourself even deeper every day,
Oh little girl, theres enough love in this circle,
You can shackle yourself or be free from this pain

You know with every cruel word that you utter,
That you bury yourself even deeper every day,
Oh little, girl theres enough love in this circle,
You can shackle yourself or be free from this pain

You know with every cruel word that you utter,
That you bury yourself even deeper every day,
Oh little girl, theres enough love in this circle,
You can shackle yourself or be free from this pain

Oh Father lyrics - Sia

It's funny that way, you can get used
To the tears and the pain
What a child will believe
You never loved me

[Chorus:]
You can't hurt me now
I got away from you, I never thought I would
You can't make me cry, you once had the power
I never felt so good about myself

Seems like yesterday
I lay down next to your boots and I prayed
For your anger to end
Oh Father I have sinned

[Chorus]

Oh Father you never wanted to live that way
You never wanted to hurt me
Why am I running away
[Repeat]

Maybe someday
When I look back I'll be able to say
You didn't mean to be cruel
Somebody hurt you too

Hold Me Down lyrisc - Sia

Could never met the kind, that keeps these thoughts I lie in, turn out on the spot, watch it all pass by
I, lie, here, awaiting for the tears, while I pass the years
I kinda seemed to move, nothing more to lose, waiting in the base, that we used to use
I, lie, here, awaiting for the tears, while I pass the years

[Chorus: x4]
You hold me down

It's dirty like it is, everything's a mess, I can only save, but your last kiss
I, lie, here, awaiting for the tears, while I pass the years
I cannot show my face, blurred in your embrace, I am controlling, your taste
I, lie, here, awaiting for the tears, while I pass the years

[Chorus: x4]
You hold me down

These memories
Weigh on me
Make believe
Sets me free
I long for you

[Chorus: x12]
You hold me down

"Some People Have Real Problems" (2008)

Little Black Sandals lyrics - Sia

I'm being dragged down, down by the hand
The hand of a golden giant man
He's crushing my knuckles
Splitting my skin, he says he'll let go
If only I'd ask it of him

He says
Girl, it's your call
You wanna fly
You wanna fall
So I shout
I wanna get away from you
As fast as I can
I tell my feet to move it
I hope they have a plan

These little black sandals
Are walking me away
These little black sandals
Are heading the right way

These little black sandals
Are walking me away
These little black sandals
Saved my life today

So now I'm free
Free
From the big bad giant
Who was stalking me
Thank you feet, for guiding me
I'm glad somehow I got brains down there, at least

These little black sandals
Are walking me away
These little black sandals
Are heading the right way

These little black sandals
Are walking me away
These little black sandals
Saved my life today

Sometimes I'm tempted
Sometimes I am
I would be lying if I said I didn't miss that giant man
He was the line between pleasure and pain
But me and the feet have some years to reclaim

These little black sandals
Are walking me away
These little black sandals
Are heading the right way

These little black sandals
Are walking me away
These little black sandals
Saved my life today

Lentil lyrics - Sia

You were waiting for me, you saw me, you saw me
As I wish the whole world would
You would never hurt me, desert me or work me
For all the things you thought you could
You would lick the tears from my eyes when I cry
How I missed you when I was gone
Hurt me so to leave you, deceive you, I needed you
I believed in you.

I, I never meant to let you down
I wait with a stake in my heart
I never meant to put you down
I'm trying not to fall apart

Now all I have is riches and pictures and stitches
But money could never buy what you give
Though my heart is achin' and breakin' I'm takin'
Most of what you send my way
I want just to hold you, unfold you, I told you
I am coming back for you
I know we will be okay everyday
The sun shines a little brighter

I, I never meant to let you down
I wait with a stake in my heart
I never meant to put you down
I'm trying not to fall apart

I never meant to let you down
I wait with a stake in my heart
I never meant to put you down
I'm trying not to fall apart
I'm trying not to fall apart

When in the night we'll set a light
I'm wishing with all of my mind

Oh no, I never meant to let you down
I never meant to put you down
I never meant to let you down
I wait with a stake in my heart
I never meant to put you down
I'm trying not to fall

Day Too Soon lyrics - Sia

Pick me up in your arms
Carry me away from harm
You're never gonna put me down
I know you're just one good man
You'll tire before we see land
You're never gonna put me down

Oh I've been running all my life
I ran away, I ran away from good
Yeah I've been waiting all my life
You're not a day you're not day too soon

Honey I will stitch you
Darling I will fit you in my heart
Honey I will meet you
Darling I will keep you in my heart

You'll risk all this for just a kiss
I promise I will not resist
Promise you won't hold me down
And when we reach a good place
Let's be sure to leave no trace
Promise they won't track us down

Now I've been running all my life
I ran away, I ran away from good
Yeah, I've been waiting all my life
You're not a day, you're not a day too soon

Honey I will stitch you
Darling I will feel you in my heart
Honey I will meet you
Darling I will keep you in my heart

I've been running all my life
I ran away, I ran away from good
Yeah I've been waiting all my life
You're not a day, you're not a day too soon

Oh honey I will stitch you
Darling I will feel you in my heart
Honey I will meet you
Darling I will keep you in my heart

You Have Been Loved lyrics - Sia

You shot me up, yeah
You filled my cup, oh
You sailed my boat
You were my last hope
You took my very last hope away

Oh you, you will be loved by someone good
And you, you will be loved by somebody good
You have been loved

You dropped the bomb
And now you're gone
I held you dear
You swallowed my fears
And now I've drunk my last beer with you

Oh you, you have been loved by someone good
Yeah you, you will be loved
Oh will you ever know
That the bitterness and anger left me long ago
Only sadness remains
And it will pass

Yeah you you will be loved by somebody good
By somebody good

The Girl You Lost To Cocaine lyrics - Sia

I've stuck around, through thick and through thin
You cannot deny, I've always been in
But I've watched you stand, still as a snowman
But I don't see you change, you're always at meltdown

Yeah I've been your crutch, your smell sight and touch
Yeah I took you home when you've drunk too much
But I can't survive, with you by my side
See I'll never get laid, while I'm running your life

No I just don't wanna, so I'm walking away
There is nothing that you can do I will not stay
No I don't need drama, so I'm walking away
Yeah I am a girl with a lot on her plate

So just cut me loose, learn to tie your shoes
There's somebody here, I'd like to introduce
So look in the mirror, look for the glass
'Cause you're not my problem, you are my last

No I just don't wanna, so I'm walking away
There is nothing that you can do I will not stay
No I don't need drama, so I'm walking away
Yeah I am a girl with a lot on her plate

No I just don't wanna, so I'm walking away
There is nothing that you can do I will not stay
No I don't need drama, so I'm walking away
Yeah I am a girl with a lot on her plate

No I just don't wanna, so I'm walking away
There is nothing that you can do I will not stay
No I'm not your mama, so I'm walking away
I'm just a girl that you lost to cocaine

Academia lyrics - Sia

You can be my alphabet and I will be your calculator
And together we'll work out on the escalator
I will time you as you run up the down
And you'll measure my footsteps as I pleasure this town
The mean of our heights is divided by the nights
Which is times'd by the daggers and the root of all our fights,
The pass of your poem is to swathe me in your knowing
And the beauty of the word is that you don't have to show it

Oh academia you can't pick me up
Soothe me with your words when I need your love

I am a dash and you are a dot
When will you see that I am all that you've got
I'm a binary code that you cracked long ago
But to you I'm just a novel that you wish you'd never wrote
I'm greater than x and lesser than y, so why is it
That I still can't catch your eye?
You're a cryptic crossword, a song I've never heard
While I sit here drawing circles I'm afraid of being hurt

Oh academia you can't pick me up
Soothe me with your words when I need your love

You're a difficult equation with a knack for heart evasion
Will you listen to my proof or will you add another page on
It appears to me the graph has come and stolen all the laughs
It appears to me the pen has over analysed again
And if I am a number I'm infinity plus one
And if you are five words you are afraid to be the one
And if you are a number you're infinity plus one
And if I am four words then I am needing all your love

Oh academia you can't pick me up
Soothe me with your words when I need your love
Academia

I Go To Sleep lyrics - Sia

When I look up from my pillow
I dream you are there with me
Though you are far away
I know you'll always be near to me

I go to sleep
And imagine that you're there with me
I go to sleep
And imagine that you're there with me

I look around me
And feel you are ever so close to me
Each tear that flows from my eye
Brings back memories of you to me

I go to sleep
And imagine that you're there with me
I go to sleep
And imagine that you're there with me

I was wrong, I will cry
I will love you till the day I die
You were all, you alone and no one else
You were meant for me

When morning comes again
I have the loneliness you left me
Each day drags by
Until finally my time descends on me

I go to sleep
And imagine that you're there with me
I go to sleep
And imagine that you're there with me

Playground lyrics - Sia

Come with me to a place of fantasy
I'll take you on a sea-saw
Come with me to a place that's by the sea
I'll take you on a board walk
Take my hand I'll take you to the sand
You and me will build a castle
Ready set go I'll race you to the wall
I will win I am the fastest

I don't wanna grow old
Bring me all the toys you can find
You don't wanna grow up
You can be my partner in crime

I'll be sure to write you from the war
Put your guns away it's tea time
Water bombs and tea towel tired mums
Looking for a little me time
Close your eyes and count to thirty five
You may never ever find me
Close my eyes and then I realise
You are never far behind me

I don't wanna grow old
Bring me all the toys you can find
You don't wanna grow up
You can be my partner in crime
I don't wanna grow old
Bring me all the toys you can find
You don't wanna grow up
You can be my partner in crime

Let's have fun, let's play out under the sun
Will you take me by the hand
Let's see how far we can run, yeah
Let's play chase let's put make up on our face
You can catch me if you can
We can make a secret place

Meet me at the playground, come with me, fool around

Death By Chocolate lyrics - Sia

Death by chocolate is myth
This I know because I lived
I've been around for broken hearts and how
Lay your head in my hands little girl
This is only right now

Death by crying doesn't exist, though
The headaches feel a bit like it
You might explode
But you reach the end of the road
And you, little tree
I'm certain you will grow

Tears on your pillow will dry and you will learn
Just how to love again
Oh my weeping willow
Let your leaves fall and return
Oh darling the seasons are your friend

Death by anger this is true
Just let him go he can't hurt you
Oh little girl this is such a cruel cruel world
This is the first, of a million broken hearts

Tears on your pillow will dry and you will learn
Just how to love again
Oh my weeping willow
Let your leaves fall and return
Oh darling the seasons are your friend

Oh it won't be long you will grow strong
Up up and away

He's but a falling leaf, he's but a falling leaf, he's but a falling leaf

Soon We'll Be Found lyrics - Sia

Come along it is the break of day
Surely now, you'll have some things to say
It's not the time for telling tales on me

So come along, it won't be long
'Til we return happy
Shut your eyes, there are no lies
In this world we call sleep
Let's desert this day of hurt
Tomorrow we'll be free

Let's not fight I'm tired can't we just sleep tonight?
Turn away it's just there's nothing left here to say
Turn around I know we're lost but soon we'll be found

Well it's been rough but we'll be just fine
Work it out yeah we'll survive
You mustn't let a few bad times dictate

So come along, it won't be long
'Til we return happy
Shut your eyes, there are no lies
In this world we call sleep
Let's desert this day of hurt
Tomorrow we'll be free

Let's not fight I'm tired can't we just sleep tonight?
Turn away it's just there's nothing left here to say
Turn around I know we're lost but soon we'll be found

Oh yeah
Oh
Oh..

Let's not fight I'm tired can't we just sleep tonight?
Turn away it's just there's nothing left here to say
Turn around I know we're lost but soon we'll be found, oh

Let's not fight I'm tired can't we just sleep tonight?
Turn away it's just there's nothing left here to say
Turn around I know we're lost but soon we'll be found

I know we're lost but soon we'll be found [3x]

Electric Bird lyrics - Sia

Someone plugged you in
And sadly they clipped your wings
Now you can't fly away electric bird
Yeah someone took your tweet
One day they fed you that bad seed
You can't fly away electric bird

Well you're art, you fell into this part
You play the victim perfectly holding your beating heart
You used to be so smart
You fluttered round the yard making your magic

Got to set you free, you were blinded by deceit
You can't fly away electric bird
So now this rooms all staged
While you're stuck there in that cage
You can't fly away electric bird

Well you're art, you fell into this part
You play the victim perfectly holding your beating heart
You used to be so smart
You fluttered round the yard making your magic

Beautiful Calm Driving lyrics - Sia

Beautiful calm driving, deep sea pearl diving
Constantly unwinding, beautiful calm driving
You turned into another
You turned into a nutter
You turned into another man

You're a stranger to me
You're a danger to me
You're a stranger to me
You're a danger
To me

Beautiful calm driving, emotional hiding
Effortlessly shining, beautiful calm driving
You turned into another
You turned into a nutter
You turned into another man

You're a stranger to me
You're a danger to me
You're a stranger to me
You're a danger to me
You're a stranger to me
You're a danger to me
You're a stranger to me
You're a danger to me
Beautiful calm driving

Lullaby lyrics - Sia

Send a wish upon a star
Do the work and you'll go far
Send a wish upon a star
Make a map and there you are

Send a hope upon a wave
A dying wish before the grave
Send a hope upon a wave
For all the souls you failed to save

And you stood tall
Now you will fall
Don't break the spell
Of a life spent trying to do well
And you stood tall
Now you will fall
Don't break the spell
Of a life spent trying to do well

Send a question in the wind
It's hard to know where to begin
So send the question in the wind
And give an answer to a friend

Place your past into a book
Put in everything you ever took
Place your past into a book
Burn the pages let them cook

And you stood tall
Now you will fall
Don't break the spell
Of a life spent trying to do well
And you stood tall
Now you will fall
Don't break the spell
Of a life spent trying to do well

[Repeat chorus]

Send a wish upon a star
Send a wish upon a star

Buttons lyrics - Sia

You got me pushing imaginary buttons
Step away from me lover, away from me lover
You got me counting imaginary school children
Get away from me lover, away from me lover
Yes I can see that your carpet is animated
Walk away from me lover, away from me lover
Yes I see you open wounds in everyone I've dated
Away from me lover, get away from me lover

I am no good for you
I'm seeing ghosts in everything I do
I am no good for you
I'm seeing ghosts in everything I do
I am no good for you
I'm seeing ghosts in everything I do
I am no good for you
I'm seeing ghosts in everything I do

You got me turning all the lights on and off
Walk away from me lover, away from me lover
When will you see that I am carrying this stuff
Walk away from me lover, away from me lover
Can't you see that I am losing my marbles
It's marvellous losing another, losing another

I am no good for you
I'm seeing ghosts in everything I do
I am no good for you
I'm seeing ghosts in everything I do
I am no good for you
I'm seeing ghosts in everything I do
I am no good for you
I'm seeing ghosts in everything I do

Walk away from me lover, away from me lover
Get away from me lover, away from me lover
Step away from me lover, away from me lover
Walk away from me lover, away from me lover

Blame It On The Radio lyrics - Sia

Take your shit and go
I'll blame it on the radio
You can't ever know
I'll blame it on the radio
When the groove is slow
I'll blame it on the radio
You forget me at home
I'll blame it on the radio

[Chorus:]
Please take your radio
Take your boombox and go-o-o
You dirty lyin' cheat
You can't be trusted with the beat

Keep your hands off me
I'll blame it on the radio
Your dick's so dirty
I'll blame it on the radio
You cannot fool me
I'll blame it on the radio
You can't keep shit clean
I'll blame it on the radio

[Chorus]

Enough of your lies
I'll blame it on the radio
All those messy nights
I'll blame it on the radio
Babe this shit ain't right
I'll blame it on the radio
But this bass is tight
I'll blame it on the radio

[Chorus]

I'll blame it on the radio
I'll blame it on the radio
I'll blame it on the radio
I'll blame it on the radio

Cares At The Door lyrics - Sia

Everyone that's on your street
Is looking for the perfect beat
And all the things you seek to find
Are sitting here in 4/4 time
So turn your faces to the sky
There isn't long until you die
So take your partner by the hand
And give them all the love you can

[Chorus:]
You'll, you'll get your way
So for today, just leave your cares at the door
Yeah, we'll be okay
So for today, just leave your cares at the door

Everyone around the world
Is crying out for a lovebird
And everyone to cross your path
Is looking for their other half
And all the stars I fail to see
Are all the boys and girls for me
So take your partner by the hand
And give them all the love you can

[Chorus x2]

[Chorus x2]

Bring It To Me lyrics - Sia

Seven days, seven nights
I've not tasted your delight
Sing my song, make me long for your
For your gordly stung love bites
Feed me this, feed me that
Put your finger on my map
Ride my seas, kiss me please
Can you find my honey trap?

Bring me jewels
Bring me fools
Bring me rhythm, soul, and blues
Feed me this, feed me that
Bring me nothing less than
You, ooh, oh, oh, oh

[Chorus:]
Bring it to me on a plate
Bring it to me on a plate
Bring it to me on a plate
While you seduce me
Bring it to me on a plate
Bring it to me on a plate
Bring it to me on a plate
But bring it loosely

Bring me joy, bring me freedom
Bring the world so we can feed 'em
Bring me peace, bring relief
Drop your arms, cause we don't need 'em
Bring me hugs, bring me love
Bring me seventeen white doves
Ride my seas, kiss me please
Bring me all the stars
Above, oh, oh, oh-ooh-oh

[Chorus x2]

Bring it to me on a plate
Bring it to me on a plate
Bring it to me on a plate
She's living loosely
Bring it to me on a plate
Bring it to me on a plate
Bring it to me on a plate
While you seduce me

"Colour The Small One" (2006)

Rewrite lyrics - Sia

You don't know me
You can't hold me
I'll slip through your hands
I am one single grain of sand

You are free to love
Happily received
You are free to love
If that is all you need

I'm an empty space
I can't be replaced
So when you're finished with this dream
Delete begin to rewrite me

You are free to love
Happily received
You are free to love
If that is all you need

You are free to love
Happily received
You are free to love
If that is all you need

You are free to love
Happily received
You are free to love
Delete and rewrite me

Sunday lyrics - Sia

For those who've slept
For those who've kept
Themselves jacked up
How Jesus wept
Sunday
Sunday

For those in need
For those who speed
For those who try to slow their minds with weed
Sunday
Sunday

For those who wake
With a blind headache
Who must be still
Who will sit and wait
For sunday, to be monday

Yeah, it will be ok
Do nothing today
Give yourself a break
Let your imagination run away

For those with guilt
For those who wilt
Under pressure
No tears over spilt milk
Sunday
Sunday

Sunday
Sunday

Sunday
Sunday

Yeah, it will be ok
Do nothing today
Give yourself a break
Let your imagination runaway

Yeah, it will be ok
Do nothing today
Give yourself a break
Let your imagination runaway

Breathe Me lyrics - Sia

Help, I have done it again
I have been here many times before
Hurt myself again today
And the worst part is there's no one else to blame

Be my friend
Hold me, wrap me up
Unfold me
I am small and needy
Warm me up
And breathe me

Ouch, I have lost myself again
Lost myself and I am nowhere to be found,
Yeah, I think that I might break
Lost myself again and I feel unsafe

Be my friend
Hold me, wrap me up
Unfold me
I am small and needy
Warm me up
And breathe me

Be my friend
Hold me, wrap me up
Unfold me
I am small and needy
Warm me up
And breathe me

The Bully lyrics

How you been feeling
It's not about marbles snakes or glue
How you been healing
Now that we cannot win or lose
So how you been keeping
It doesn't matter whose dads richest now
How you been sleeping
From the top bunks further to fall down

You turned that around on me
You turned that around on me
You turned that around on me
You turned that around on me

What you been doing
Still make the world a better place
Never stopped rueing
Making those tears fall down your face
Making you suffer
Wondering how you got your scars
And only in hindsight
I wish I had taken you in my arms

Taken you in my arms
Taken you in my arms
Taken you in my arms
Taken you in my arms

You turned that around on me
You turned that around on me
You turned that around on me
You turned that around on me

You turned that around on me (forgiving the bully)
You turned that around on me
You turned that around on me (forgiving the bully)

Sweet Potato lyrics - Sia

She cooks you sweet potato you don't like aubergine
She knows to boil the kettle when you hum bars from grease
She senses you are lonely but still she can't be sure
And so she stands and waits, stands anticipating (your thoughts)

How can she become the psychic that she longs to be to understand you
How can she become the psychic that she longs to be to understand you

He brushes thoroughly
He know she likes fresh breath
He rushes to the station
He waits atop the steps
He's brought with him a Mars bar
She will not buy Nestle
And later he'll perform
A love-lorn serenade, a trade

How can he become the psychic that he longs to be to understand you
How can he become the psychic that he longs to be to understand you

So give her information to help her fill the holes
Give an ounce of power so he does not feel controlled
Help her to acknowledge the pain that you are in
Give to him a glimpse of that beneath your skin

Now my inner dialogue is heaving with detest
I am a martyr and a victim and I need to be caressed
I hate that you negate me, I'm a ghost at beck and call
I'm failing and placating, and berating myself for staying

I'm a fool
I'm a fool

He greets the stranger meekly a thing that she accepts
She sees him waiting often with chocolate on the steps
He senses she is lonely she's glad they finally met
They take each other's hands walk into the sunset

Do you like sweet potato?

Don't Bring Me Down lyrics - Sia

Faint light of dawn
I'm listening to you breathing in and breathing out
Needing nothing
You're honey dipped
You are beautiful, floating clouds, soft world
I can't feel my lips

I'm going down, I don't want to change
I'm going down, going down the drain

Don't bring me down, I beg you
Don't bring me down, I won't let you
Don't bring me down

Then all of that's annulled and I'm ayone's everyone's
We are one
Your face becomes the sun
And I'm addicted to the joy that the little things
Those little things
The little things they bring

I'm going down, I don't want to change
I'm going down, going down the drain

Don't bring me down, I beg you
Don't bring me down, I won't let you
Don't bring me down

So now for restless mind, I could go either way

I'm going down, I don't wanna change
I'm going down, going down the drain

Don't bring me down, I beg of you
Don't bring me down, I won't let you
Don't bring me down, I beg you
Don't bring me down, don't let me

Natale's Song lyrics - Sia

I'm in the wars
Can't speak for crying
Close all the doors
Since I am dying
Pick up the phone
Attempt to call her
I'm all alone
Until she answers

Momentarily she brings peace to me
Momentarily she brings peace to me

She barely speaks
But I hear her breathing
That's all I need
Someone who's listening
And still she stays
Her time is precious
Until I am safe
She gives her presence

Momentarily she brings peace to me
Momentarily she brings peace to me
Momentarily she brings peace to me
Momentarily she brings peace to me

Butterflies lyrics - Sia

We've been to the top, we've been to the bottom
We've known everything and forgotten, yeah

You've kicked me around, you've wrapped me in cotton
You've carried our load, and you've shot 'em

Oh yes the butterflies are still there
Oh yes the butterflies are still there

We've argued by the baggage claim
We've accepted and we've laid blame
We've drank Sangthip in monsoonal rain
We've felt separate and felt the same

Oh yes the butterflies are still there
Oh yes the butterflies are still there
Oh yes the butterflies are still there
Oh yes the butterflies are still there

We've shared joy and we've shared pain
We've shared guilt and we've shared shame
We've bought into the stupid games
We've freed each other and we laid claim

Oh yes the butterflies are still there
Oh yes the butterflies are still there
Oh yes the butterflies are still there
Oh yes the butterflies are still there

Because we came from the same cocoon

Moon lyrics - Sia

I watch you spin from afar
I drink you in and breath you out
I'm camouflaged by the timeline
I'm camouflaged when the sun shines

Two ships passing in the night
Two lips pressing ground the tides

I believe the world it spins for you
We wil never be, I am the moon

I believe the world it spins for you
We wil never be, I am the moon

I long to be a part
I isolate my heart
You've drawn me into your world
Now I too spin limbless

One hand clapping, where's the wind
I stand spanning at your distant wings

I believe the world it spins for you
We wil never be, I am the moon

I believe the world it spins for you
We wil never be, I am the moon

I believe the world it spins for you
We wil never be, I am the moon

The Church Of What's Happening Now lyrics - Sia

I want to change, to rearrange
What is going on
I need to change, I need to play
Like a five year old

I can't detach from the past and all of the pain
I need to learn, start from scratch begin again

Throw away yesterday
Today is a brand new day
Throw away yesterday
Today is a brand new day

So I'm going to eat one hundred sweets
I don't care if I get fat
And I'm going to speak one I won't censor me
I know I can take nothing back

And I'm going to jump I will unburden
I cannot go too deep
I will not run from bad things I've done
They're things I'll try not to repeat

Throw away yesterday
Today is a brand new day
Throw away yesterday
Today is a brand new day

Welcome to
The church of what's happening now
Head straight through
It costs nothing but change

Throw away yesterday
Today is a brand new day
Throw away yesterday
Today is a brand new day

Throw away yesterday
Today is a brand new day
Throw away yesterday
Today is a brand new day

Throw away yesterday
Today is a brand new day
Throw away yesterday
Today is a brand new day

Numb lyrics - Sia

I saw you cry today
The pain may fill you
I saw you shy away
The pain will not kill you

You made me smile today
You spoke with many voices
We travelled miles today
Shared expressions voiceless

It has to end
Living in your head
Without anything to numb you
Living on the edge
Without anything to numb you

It has to end to begin

Began an end today
Gave and got given
You made a friend today
Kindred soul cracked spirit

It has to end to begin

Living in your head
Without anything to numb you
Living on the edge
Without anything to numb you

It had to end to begin

Living in your head
Without anything to numb you
Living on the edge
Without anything to numb you

Living in your head
Without anything to numb you
Living on the edge
Without anything to numb you

Where I Belong lyrics - Sia

We lose
Yet we want to spare the feelings of those we love
Don't cry
We've all lied
But there is always room for forgiveness my friend

So don't treat me bad just be glad I am strong
I know where I belong
And soon you will see we are blessed and complete
There's a place here for you with me

Shine
You're fine
See I will always have a smile for you my love
And still
We will
Be ok and along the way we'll learn a thing or two

So don't treat me bad just be glad I am strong
I know where I belong
And soon you will see we are blessed and complete
There's a place here for you with me

So don't treat me bad just be glad I am strong
I know where I belong
And soon you will see we are blessed and complete
There's a place here for you with me

Don't treat me bad just be glad I am strong
I know where I belong
So soon you will see we are blessed and complete
There's a place here for you with me

Don't treat me bad just be glad I am strong
I know where I belong
And soon you will see we are blessed and complete
There's a place here for you with me

So don't treat me bad just be glad I am strong
I know where I belong, where I belong
And soon you will see we are blessed and complete
There's a place here for you with me

So don't treat me bad just be glad I am strong
I know where I belong, where I belong
And soon you will see we are blessed and complete
There's a place here for you with me

Don't treat me bad just be glad I am strong
I know where I belong
And soon you will see we are blessed and complete
There's a place here for you with me

Broken Biscuit lyrics - Sia

I'm a broken biscuit
From the cookie jar
I'm a total misfit
In the puzzle that's so far
Careful not to crush me
In those hungry hands
Careful not to rush me
Into this fine romance

I stand under the weight of your words
Hoping you won't find me
I'm terrified of everything I've heard,
Don't swallow

I'm a damaged dollar
Than no-one wants to change
I'm a bunch of flowers
That need to be arranged
Careful what you wish for
Careful what you say
I've lowered all my armour
Risking the pain again

I stand under the weight of your words.
Hoping you won't find me.
I'm terrified of everything I've heard,
Don't swallow

I'm standing on the edge of your words
That is where you'll find me
I'm paralysed by all the things that hurt
But I'm coming

I stand under the weight of your words
Hoping you won't find me
I'm paralysed by all the things I heard
Don't swallow

I'm standing on the edge of your words
Standing on the edge of your words
I'm paralysed by all the things that hurt
But I'm coming

Sea Shells lyrics - Sia

By the window
Since time began
Watch the wind blow
Sculpting sand

All in letters bound in string
Life is slowly unraveling

Burning castle
Turning down
Mr. Prince has lost her crown

All in letters bound in string
Time is slowly unraveling

She sells
Empty sea shells
Lost in the ocean

Through the window
We can see
Sand and biscuits
Cups of tea

All in letters bound in string
Life is slowly unraveling

All in letters bound in string
Life is slowly unraveling

She sells
Empty sea shells
She sells
Empty sea shells
Lost in the ocean

"Healing Is Difficult" (2002)

Fear lyrics - Sia

My mother's afraid of the subway
It's a living bad dream
I hold her hand as the doors close
And she pales and stifles a scream
Ali's afraid of Ad-libbing
Of improvising at jams
She is not very happy right now
And spends all her money on grams
Ade is afraid of commitment
So Carla dumped him today
She is very disappointed
She was hoping he'd beg her to stay
Ayo he just wants a girlfriend
He's afraid of dying alone
He doesn't go out very much
Sits at home a lot getting stoned

[Chorus:]
You see fear is only holding us back
Look closely amongst all your peers
There is usually one thing that keeps
Us off track
It is fear, it is fear, it is fear

Ella is worried about her weight
She won't eat in public anymore
She is fucking her ex again
When they've finished
She sleeps on the floor
Nate has a heart of gold
But give it away he will not
His mother abandoned him at ten
It's a pain he has never forgot
Mary's afraid of herself
Her sentences often cut half
She will never give her own opinion
She's afraid that people might laugh
And I am afraid of sharks
I will not swim out past my head
And sometimes I worry
My boyfriend will die
My first love is already dead

[Chorus]

You see fear is only holding us back
Look closely amongst all your peers
There is usually one thing that keeps
Us off track
It is fear, It is fear, It is fear

Candy is having a baby
She fears she will be like her mom
Her friends say relax take a
Deep breath
And march to a different drum
Sachas afraid of her Marco
She think's that it's all her fault
But if he did what he does to a
Stranger
He'd be locked up and charged
With assault

[Chorus]

Drink To Get Drunk lyrics - Sia

I eat food to satisfy my hunger
I drink water to quench my thirst
I use my mouth and air to blow balloon up
I prick with pin to watch it burst
To make noise I use my breathe
To unlock doors I use a key
When I'm looking for something I use my eyes
I use booze to unlock me

I sweep so I can sleep
I sweep so I can sleep

Sweep Sweep Sweep Sweep Sweep

I wear shoes so I can run
As to avoid the broken glass
I wear the pants because they suit me
And to discourage the pinchin' of ass
I'll tell a joke to make you laugh
I'll close the door to have a cry
They say that change and pain is a positive thing
Have I changed since you died

I Sweep so I can sleep
I Sweep so I can sleep

Sweep Sweep Sweep Sweep Sweep

Don't ask me why I smoke
I don't know
But I drink to get drunk

Don't ask me why I smoke
I don't know
But I drink to get drunk

Don't ask me why I smoke
I don't know
But I drink to get drunk

Don't ask me why I smoke
I don't know
But I drink to get drunk

Taken For Granted lyrics - Sia

I'm sitting in the car again
Waiting for you
You said you'd be a minute
But you've been twenty two
See you've got to do your hair
And get it just right
Sometimes you're in the bathroom
For half of the night

And I'm waiting for you again
Yes I'm waiting for you
And I'm waiting for you again
Tell me what can I do
And I'm waiting for you again
Yes I'm waiting for you
And I'm waiting for you again
Tell me what can I do

Now I'm sitting by the phone again
Waiting for your call
You'd said you'd phone at two
And it's a quarter past four
Now I'm standing out the front
Again
It's late at night
And I'm truly sick to death of
Sleazy men
Undressing me with their eyes

And I'm waiting for you again
Yes I'm waiting for you
And I'm waiting for you again
Tell me what can I do
And I'm waiting for you again
Yes I'm waiting for you
And I'm waiting for you again
Tell me what can I do

Now I'm back back from
The theater
I watched the show alone
I waited for you and
I missed half act one
Have you never heard
Of the phone
I don't like being
Taken for granted
I'm too nice for my own good
See I do what I say
And i say what I do
Is it too much to expect
That you could
I wish you would

I ain't waiting for you no more
I ain't waiting for you
I ain't waiting for you no more
Go find another fool
I ain't waiting for you no more
I ain't waiting for you
I ain't waiting for you no more
It's the usual coup
I ain't waiting for you no more
I ain't waiting for you
I ain't waiting for you no more
May I show you the door
I ain't waiting for you no more
I ain't waiting for you
I ain't waiting for you no more
I ain't missing nothing for you

Blow It All Away lyrics - Sia

Without a sound ever heard
Without a lesson I have learned
You are foolish
And diluted

Too many lies have you burned
Where there's eyes to be found
This seems life's underground

But even if you had it all
You would find
I could never let you stay

'Cause you blow it all away
You blow it al away
Blow it all away

If you go
I will stall

Yes I see it
Yes I feel it
You have no oppressions at all

But if life is truly devoured
I'll strip your bare 'till the truth comes out

But even if you had it all
You would find

You blow it all
You blow it all away
Blow it all away
Blow it all, blow it all, blow it all... away

Forever is your mind to be naive
Remember it will bring us to our years
You blow it all away

But even if you had it all
You would find

You blow it all
You blow it all away
Blow it all away
Blow it all, blow it all, blow it all
Blow it all, blow it all, blow it all

Blow it all away
Blow it all away
Blow it all away
You blow it all away

Get Me lyrics - Sia

Now I don't mind if you find that I'm a shoulder to cry on rely on
But the burden is just too much I'm losing touch with myself and my health

What you gonna do if you get me I can heal your problems if you let me
What you gonna do if you get me I can heal your problems if you let me

Now I don't keep you from your sleep I need some ease I'm tired of trying to please
And it seems that my dreams are coming farther and fewer in between

What you gonna do if you get me I can heal your problems if you let me
What you gonna do if you get me I can heal your problems if you let me.

I'm Not Important To You lyrics - Sia

You took me for granted
You took me, you took me for granted
But I landed back on my feet, back on
My feet
Cos you don't deserve me, deserve me
You don't have the time that I need
That I want, I deserve
But I got back my nerve
Did what was right for me
I'm using my head not my heart
And I'm starting new
I'm going to get over you, over you

I'm not important to you
I'm not important to you
I'm not important to you
I'm not important to you

You happy is all I wanted to see, is all
I wanted to see, to see
And so now that's what
I'm going to be, what I'm going to be
I'll waste some time on me
I gave you my all and you took it
I saw and you gave nothing back
Your mind on another track,
Another track, another track yeah
There are plenty of people out there
Who would care about me
You'll see
You'll see

I'm not important to you
I'm not important to you
I'm not important to you
I'm not important to you

Sober And Unkissed lyrics - Sia

Like a new winter's coat
I'm wearing your last embrace
Like a cold quenching glass of water
I hold a clear picture of your face

When are you coming around
Oh when are you coming around
Cos soon I'll be cold and thirsty

I'm hearing your last telephone call
Ringing louder and clearer than
The rest
I hear your invitation to see it all
Better written I am smitten no
Protest

So when are you coming around
Oh when are you coming around
Cos soon I'll be bored and lonely

I'm tasting the last glass of yor wine
The sweet taste linger left on lips
I'm tasting your sweet kisses with mine
The sweet taste lingers left on lips

So when are you coming around
Oh when are you coming around
Cos soon I'll be sober and unkissed.

Healing Is Difficult lyrics - Sia

Healing is difficult
Often results in psychosomatic
I admit to enjoying drugs
They get rid of tension, boredom and static
Hate those adverse sideeffects
Forcing the people who love me to scatter
Excuse me for being such a hypocrit
The way I see it really doesn't matter

Why do you cock your head to the side when you look at me
Why are my skills in bed more important than sanity

Why do you cock your head to the side when you look at me
Why are my skills in bed more important than sanity

To tell you the truth
I can't believe I love you so much
So much in fact that I don't know whether to weep or wind my watch
I have a sick sense of humour
It amazes me how points it scores
I'm addicted to vice
My best friends are pushers, my boyfriends are whores

Why do you cock your head to the side when you look at me
Why are my skills in bed more important than sanity

Why do you cock your head to the side when you look at me
Why are my skills in bed more important than sanity

Simple to see why I breathe
No one bothers me completely

Simple to see why I breathe
No one bothers me completely

Why do you cock your head to the side when you look at me
Why are my skills in bed more important than sanity

Why do you cock your head to the side when you look at me
Why are my skills in bed more important than sanity

Waking up next to you
Your morningbreath reminds me of Lucy
The flies in the frontroom
Buzz round my head and try to seduce me
If I contract illness
The last thing I want is to pass it to others
Fucking leaves guilt pangs
When I start forgetting the names of my lovers

Why do you cock your head to the side when you look at me
Why are my skills in bed more important than sanity

Why do you cock your head to the side when you look at me
Why are my skills in bed more important than sanity...

Judge Me lyrics - Sia

Judge me feel free
Cos the freer you feel
The freer you'll let me be

It's such a terrible terrible shame
You keep on judging me, in his name
You're so quick to shift the focus
Cos you can find yourself
In today's frame
But I know he's approve
And I've nothing to prove to you
He smiles down on me lovingly

Just me feel free
Cos the freer you feel
The freer you'll let me be

It's truly sad to see
You suffering so immensely
You need distracting
So you use me conveniently
But I know he'd approve
And I've nothing to prove to you
He smiles down on me lovingly.

Little Man lyrics - Sia

So naive, it helps me to breathe
Yor smile I keep on file
You tickle me pink
I love the way you think
So when I'm feeling low I know
I'm your greatest fan

Little man I'm endlessly proud of you
In such a short time span
You've filled my heart with joy
As I grow older, you grow wiser
Watching my mistakes
Memorise where I've gone wrong

If they fall way
I'll stay with you
But do as I say and not as do
Trust me and you'll see
All I want is what is best for you

Little man yor head is full of dreams
If only I could spend one day touring
Your imagination
If I live longer you'll grow faster
At recognising the traps that cause
Me such frustration

If they fall way
I'll stay with you
But do as I say and not as I do
trust me and you'll see
All I want is what is best for you
[x3]

So naive, it helps me to breathe
Your smile I keep on file
You tickle me pink
I love the way you think
So when I'm feeling low I know
I'm your greatest fan.
