‘Flux’ is the first promotional single from Ellie Goulding’s fourth studio album, ‘Brightest Blue’. The song is her looking back and wondering about what could’ve been of an old relationship.
[Verse 1]
Remember me in a simple way, not what I did or said
When I think of you now, I just think of the day we met
Don't forget me, like I didn't care
Yeah, I stole from myself just to make you complete
[Pre-Chorus]
(Flux, flux)
I don't think you have the patience
I don't think you know the difference
(Flux, flux)
And I don't want cute imitations
I know you wanted to save me
[Chorus]
And I'm still in love with the idea of loving you
It's a state of flux, but it's not enough
And I'm still in love with the idea of loving you
It's a state of flux, I just keep holding on
[Post-Chorus]
Would you be taking me higher?
Would we be living as liars?
I wanna know, I wanna know
[Verse 2]
When the memories pack up and leave, it will set me free
All those days on the beach will be washing away from me
I will keep you secretly just to keep the peace
Keep steering this ship through the dark and the stormy seas
[Pre-Chorus]
(Flux, flux)
I should be counting my blessings
Staying safe in confusion
(Flux, flux)
And maybe I'm learning my lesson
I know you wanted to save me
[Chorus]
I'm still in love with the idea of loving you
It's a state of flux, but it's not enough
And I'm still in love with the idea of loving you
It's a state of flux, I just keep holding on
[Post-Chorus]
Would you be taking me higher?
Would we be living as liars?
I wanna know, I wanna know
Would we be living in Camden?
Getting a ticket to your band?
I wanna know, I wanna know
[Bridge]
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh, ooh
[Chorus]
Oh, I'm still in love with the idea of loving you (Oh, with the idea)
It's a state of flux (It's a state of)
But it's not enough (It's not enough)
I'm still in love with the idea of loving you
It's a state of flux, I just keep holding on
(Oh, I just keep holding on)
I'm still in love with the idea of loving you
It's a state of flux, but it's not enough (Oh, I'm still in love)
I'm still in love with the idea of loving you
It's a state of flux, I just keep holding on

On social media, Ellie said of the song:
I think this is really confronting something quite uncomfortable: thinking about what would happen if you’d stayed together. To me, it’s quite indulgent, because it’s absolutely not good for you to do this. It’s not good for growth. But songs like this are great to sing along to and great to indulge...
