Chic 20,830 Posted December 20, 2014 Share Posted December 20, 2014 "Immortal†is track #12 on Marina and the Diamonds' upcoming album Froot. Described by The Line of Best Fit as “a sparkling ballroom ballad that deals in existential motifs†and as “arguably the darkest thing she’s ever writtenâ€, Marina commented about its lyrics as following: 'It’s a really universal issue discussing how you leave your mark and how it’s really important to preserve memories and remember people. I started writing that song when I went to a war memorial in Poland. Something that somebody I was with said just struck me… they said ‘It’s not a very beautiful memorial, but it deserves to be visited to keep their memory alive.’ -Rap Genius The song is going to be released on 1/1/15 as the third Froot Of The Month, and the Froot associated with it will be the blueberry, with the ensuing color being blue. Discuss! Title: Immortal Length: 5:21 Genre: Ballad Description: Sparkling ballroom ballad, darkest thing Marina has ever written, about how important memories and leaving your mark is Lyrics: [Verse 1]: I wanna be immortal Like a god in the sky I want to be a silk flower Like I’m never gonna die I wanna live forever Forever in your heart And we'll always be together From the end to the start [Pre-Chorus]: That's what we do it for to reserve a place It's just another part of the human race That's what we do if for to reserve a space In history it's just Part of the human race Race, race, race, race [Chorus]: I'm forever chasing after time But everybody dies, dies If I could buy forever at a price I would buy it twice, twice But if the world ends in fire And the seas are frozen in time There'll be just one survivor The memory that I was yours and you were mine Everybody dies Chasing after time [Verse 2]: When you love somebody They'll always leave too soon But a memory, a memory Can make a flower bloom We wanna be remembered Don't wanna live in vain But nothing lasts forever This world is in a losing game [Pre-Chorus]: I wanna mean something to somebody else Feel a significance in the real world It’s not enough to live out a lucky life [Chorus]: I'm forever chasing after time But everybody dies, dies If I could buy forever at a price I would buy it twice, twice But if the world ends in fire And the trees are frozen in time There'll be just one survivor The memory that I was yours and you were mine Everybody dies Chasing after time [bridge]: No, I don't want to be afraid, afraid to die Just want to be able to say that i have lived my life Oh, all these things that humans do To leave behind a little proof But the only thing that doesn’t die is love [Chorus]: I'm forever chasing after time But everybody dies, dies If I could buy forever at a price I would buy it twice, twice But if the world ends in fire And the seas are frozen in time There'll be just one survivor The memories of our life time Everybody dies Chasing after time [Outro]: So keep me alive So keep me alive So keep me alive Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
