Stones falling down
Roller coaster, heart pound
Fears overplayed
Two left feet emergency

Wide open space
Catch my tail
Fishing net
Fold up my frown
Take the rage
And smooth it out

Stick to my skin
Paper mache face to live in
Same view to paint
Watercolour your name

Face your mistakes
(You will never have to feel that way again)
Oil your chains, under rate
(You will never have to feel that way again)
Read every page
Press the dents, fighter plane

I held the fort, and I swung my sword I have muted the screams I have broken the falls oh I have fought, and I swung my sword I have muted the screams I have broken the falls

Fighter Plane
Fly away!

Ellie Goulding

Elena Jane “Ellie” Goulding (born 30 December 1986) – is an English singer-songwriter. In 2010, she became the second artist to both top the BBC’s annual Sound of… poll and win the Critics' Choice Award at the Brit Awards in the same year, following Adele’s win of both in 2008. Originally her music incorporated elements of folk, pop, electronica, and folktronica.

In July 2009, Goulding signed with Polydor Records, and released her debut EP An Introduction to Ellie Goulding, later that year. Her debut single, “Under The Sheets” was then released in November.

In 2010 Goulding recorded and released her debut record Lights, which spawned four charting singles in the UK, the biggest of which “Starry Eyes” peaked at #4 in the UK and charted in many European countries and Australia.
