David Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Oh, dark day
Was I just someone to dominate?
Worthy opponent, flint to my blade, now we're playing with shadows
At the Sunset Tower, you said, "Open your mouth"
I did
[Pre-Chorus]
And what came spillin' out that day was the truth
If I'd had virginity, I would have given that too
[Chorus]
Why do we run to the ones we do?
I don't belong to anyone, ooh
[Verse 2]
Oh, dark day
Was I just young blood to get on tape?
'Cause you dimed me out when it got hard
Uppercut to the throat, I was off guard
Pure heroine mistaken for featherweight
[Pre-Chorus]
But what came spillin' out that day was the truth
And once I could sing again, I swore I'd never lеt
Let myself sing again for you, oh-woah-oh
Oh-woah, ooh-woah-oh
Sing it
[Chorus]
Said, "Why do we run to thе ones we do?"
I don't belong to anyone, ooh
I made you God 'cause it was all
That I knew how to do
But I don't belong to anyone (Ooh)
[Outro]
Am I ever gon' love again?
Am I ever gon' love again?
Am I ever gon' love again? (Ooh)
Am I ever gon' love again? (Am I ever gon' love again?) (Tell it to the rock doves)
Will you ever feel like a friend? (Sing it to the fountain)
Am I ever gon' love again?
Do you understand? (Till you understand)
Tell it to 'em

What did Lorde say about "David"?
There’s a lot of strength to this album and I always felt that the end needed to be a real breakdown of that. I feel completely vulnerable on that song and even how we treat the vocal, it’s so human, I felt this journey happening through the song, it sort of comes to this big quite machine-made clim...
