La La La La Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Supposed to be sleep, but over my covers I peak
Won't you terrify me?
Don't belong to me, but still your shadow leaves
Chills on my cheek
And I know it's a no, no, how I'm feeling for you
I can't rid him of my sheets
Pain wants me to let go
I'd be lying if I said no
Hurts so much that it's sweet

[Chorus]
La la la la
Can't calm down, stalker's round, yeah
La la la la
Can't make a sound, you force my love out
Scared in your arms

[Verse 2]
Coiled in your skin, is where I'm stuck
I'll be coming again
Sweet charcoal black is where I wanna be at
I'll be coming back
And I know it's a no, no, how I'm feeling for you
I can't rid him of my sheets
Pain wants me to let go
I'd be lying if I said now
Hurts so much that it's sweet
[Chorus]
La la la la
Can't calm down, stalker's round, yeah
La la la la
Can't make a sound, you force my love out
Scared in your arms

[Verse 3]
How does it feel?
To know I’m wrapped around you, wrapped around you
How does it feel?
To know I’m wrapped around you, wrapped around you
Oh you love you love you love
You love, you love, you love

[Outro]
La la la la, oh babe
Can't calm down, stalker's round, yeah
La la la la
Can't make a sound, you force my love out
Scared in your arms

About

Genius Annotation

Ari Lennox gives us “La La La La” as an ode to the person that continues to linger around as much as she wants them to leave. Her lyrics imply that she knows it will hurt to stick around. Not only does the other person return again and again, but so do the strong emotions and feelings of attachment that she holds for them.
