[Verse 1]
I walk in a vision in red
Your favorite movie playing on my silhouette
You turn to me just for a minute
Do you know my real secret?

[Verse 2]
Make my move
Spillin' all my popcorn over you
You're confused
What does a girl like me want with you? (With you, with you)

[Pre-Chorus]
I want your hands
Your future plans
To the bitter end
We said

[Chorus]
"Take a life for me," you know I'd do it instantly
In danger of a true romance
We are meant to be, I'd die for love and loyalty
In danger of a true romance

[Post-Chorus]
I don't like the real world
I don't like the real world
It's tough out in the real world
Let's go back to our world

[Verse 3]
Bullets fly, you took him down and now we're
Honeymooners dreamin' 'bout tropical skies

[Pre-Chorus]
In trouble again
When does it end?
Will it ever end?
Save me

[Chorus]
Running from the scene, more money that we could ever dream
In danger of a true romance
Bodies left to bleed, they all had it comin'
In danger of a true romance
Thought I watched you die, I killed a man with tears in my eyes
In danger of a true romance
Saved you from that room, the powder and gold and the men were all doomed
Against our love, they never stood a chance
"Take a life for me," you know I'd do it instantly
In danger of a true romance
We are meant to be, I'd die for love and loyalty
In danger of a true romance

[Post-Chorus]
I don't like the real world
I don't like the real world
It's tough out in the real world
Let's go back to our world

Ebba Tove Elsa Nilsson, professionally known as Tove Lo (pronounced Too-veh-Lu), is a Swedish singer-songwriter born and raised in Djursholm, Sweden.

She first rose to prominence for her single, “Habits (Stay High)“, which became a top ten hit in the U.S. a year after its 2013 release, a dark breakup anthem that generated such Internet buzz that it led to a deal with Universal. “Habits“ and its follow-up, “Out of Mind“, appeared on her debut EP Truth Serum, in 2014.

Later that year, her debut album, Queen of the Clouds, arrived, featuring “Habits“. The album was a Top 10 hit in Sweden and a Top 20 hit in the U.S. and U.K., and the subsequent single “Talking Body“ was a similar success.
