Lyrics

Solitaire

[Verse 1] Don't wanna talk anymore I'm obsessed with silence I go home and I lock my door I can hear the sirens I see buildings and bars from the window (Mm, mm) And I listen to the wind blow I see people and cars covered in gold (Mm, mm) And I'm happy to be on my own [Pre-Chorus] Hard like a rock, cold like stone White like a diamond, black like coal Cut like a jewel, yeah, I repair myself When you're not there [Chorus] Solitaire Something you consider rare I don't wanna be compared, yeah With that cheap shimmer and glitter Solitaire [Verse 2] I'm in love with the ice-blue grey skies of England I'll admit all I wanna do is get drunk and silent Watch my life unfold all around me (Mm, mm) Like a beautiful garden I see flowers so tall, they surround me (Mm, mm) Oh, my heart, it became so hardened [Pre-Chorus] Hard like a rock, cold like stone White like a diamond, black like coal Cut like a jewel, yeah, I repair myself When you're not there [Chorus] Solitaire Something you consider rare I don't wanna be compared, yeah With that cheap shimmer and glitter Solitaire [Bridge] And all the other jewels around me They astounded me at first I covered up my heart in boundaries And all the fakes, they called me cursed But I'm not cursed, I'm not cursed I was just covered in dirt, dirt, dirt, dirt [Chorus] Solitaire Something you consider rare I don't wanna be compared, yeah With that cheap shimmer and glitter Solitaire [Outro] Mm, solitaire Mm, solitaire Mm, solitaire Mm, solitaire
