“No Choir” is a stripped, short ballad that closes Florence + The Machine’s fourth studio album High as Hope.
Florence breaks the fourth wall and sings about the relationship between her music career and her state of mind. The song’s mantra is that happiness doesn’t have to be loud; it can be quiet...
[Verse 1]
And it's hard to write about being happy
'Cause the older I get

But the loneliness never left me

[Chorus]
And there will be no grand choirs to sing
No chorus will come in
No ballad will be written
It will be entirely forgotten
[Verse 3]
And if tomorrow it's all over
At least we had it for a moment
Oh, darling, things seem so unstable
But for a moment we were able to be still
[Chorus]
And there will be no grand choirs to sing
No chorus will come in
No ballad will be written
This will be entirely forgotten
