Lorde
Don’t Take the Money (Demo)
[Intro: Julien Baker & Jack Antonoff]
There's a reason I wake up alone in strange places
I slept on my own those nights
A reason I see myself in a million faces
Cut off my t-shirt sleeves
I saw your face
Covered in sun
There's a reason I can't stop at all from changing
[Verse: Jack Antonoff]
So we fight
Stay up late
In my dreams
On the plane
Different sides
Of the bed
Roll your eyes
Shave my head
[Pre-Chorus: Jack Antonoff]
Now we're stuck in the storm
We were born to ignore
All I've got is a chance to just say
Would you love us without me running away?
[Chorus: Jack Antonoff]
You steal the air out of my lungs
You make me feel it
I pray for everything we lost
Buy back the secrets
Your hand forever's all I want
Don't take the money
Don't take the money
You steal the air out of my lungs
You make me feel it
I pray for everything we lost
Buy back the secrets
Your hand forever's all I want
Don't take the money
Don't take the money
Your hand forever's all I want
Don't take the money
Don't take the money
Hey, hey, hey
