"Bleach" lyrics - ELLIE GOULDING
[Intro:]
Yeah-yeah-yeah-yeah-yay
Yeah-yeah-yeah-yeah-yay
Na-na-na-na-na-na
Once upon a time, you were my sunshine
Everything about you got me goddamn wired
Started as a fleeting thing now
You're all that I can stomach
Tie my hands, I'm gripping to the stereo
Don't understand how I ended up being so low
Didn't owe you anything now
I'm paying for my exit
[Pre-Chorus:]
Seen violent movies
Seen how it could be
I tried, tried to fix your heart
You thief, pat my pockets
Now I'm feeling heartless
I tried, tried to pull us apart
[Chorus:]
What would it take to bleach you?
What would it take to undo?
Five Hennessys to drink you out my mind
What would it have to come to?
Stuck to me like a tattoo
No remedy to leave you glorified
You throw the dice as if I were the losing game
And every time you ask, I say I'm okay, babe
Lying in a thousand flames, but
I still tell you that I'm okay
It was devotion
I drank every potion you gave me
And now you say you think we're different
And maybe we can just fuck, oh
[Pre-Chorus:]
Bleed, but you don't notice (Oh, you don't notice)
I was always honest (Hey)
But you, you just love to lie (Oh, you just love to lie)
[Chorus:]
What would it take to bleach you?
What would it take to undo?
Five Hennessys to drink you out my mind
What would it have to come to?
Stuck to me like a tattoo
No remedy to leave you glorified
[Outro:]
(I'm just gonna bleach you)
Bleach you like a bone in a brook (I'm just gonna bleach you, oh)
Bleach you like a bone in a brook
Bleach you like a bone in a brook (Ah)
Bleach you like a bone in a brook
