[Verse 1]
He says, "Ooh, baby girl, you know we're gonna be legends
I'm the king and you're the queen and we will stumble through heaven
If there's a light at the end, it's just the sun in your eyes
I know you wanna go to heaven, but you're human tonight"

[Pre-Chorus]
And I've been sitting at the bottom of a swimming pool
For a while now, drowning my thoughts out with the sounds

[Chorus]
And do you feel like a young god?
You know the two of us are just young gods
And we'll be flying through the streets with the people underneath
And they're running, running, running
And do you feel like a young god?
You know the two of us arе just young gods
And we'll be flying through the streets with thе people underneath
And they're running, running, running
Again

[Post-Chorus]
And we'll be running, running, running
Again
And we'll be running, running, running

[Verse 2]
He says, "Ooh, baby girl, don't get cut on my edges
I'm the king of everything and my fucking tongue is a weapon
There's a light in the crack that's separating your thighs
And if you wanna go to heaven, you should fuck me tonight"

[Pre-Chorus]
But I've been sitting at the bottom of a swimming pool
For a while now, drowning my thoughts out with the sounds, oh

[Chorus]
But do you feel like a young god?
You know the two of us are just young gods
And we'll be flying through the streets with the people underneath
And they're running, running, running
But do you feel like a young god?
You know the two of us are just young gods
And we'll be flying through the streets with the people underneath
And they're running, running, running
Again

[Post-Chorus]
And we'll be running, running, running
Again
And we'll be running, running, running

[Bridge]
'Cause ooh, baby girl
I'm the king of everything
And there's a light in the crack
And if you wanna go to heaven, you should fuck me tonight

[Chorus]
Do you feel like a young god?
You know the two of us are just young gods
And we'll be flying through the streets with the people underneath
And they're running, running, running
But do you feel like a young god?
You know the two of us are just young gods
(And we'll be flying through the streets with the people underneath)
(And they're running, running, running)
Again

[Spoken Outro]
Thank you

Halsey

Halsey is the stage name of New Jersey singer Ashley Nicolette Frangipane. It is an anagram of her first name and reference to the Halsey Street subway stop and street in Brooklyn where she used to live. The bio on her website

I am Halsey. I will never be anything but honest. I write songs about sex and being sad."

Halsey was diagnosed with bipolar disorder when she was 17. This has greatly influenced her creative process from the start of her career. Songs like “Control” and “Gasoline” explicitly delve into her psychological and emotional battles. Manic, Halsey’s third album and arguably her rawest and most emotionally vulnerable, was written in a fully manic state rather than a depressive one.
