Mismatch Flame

Love-Plated

Love-Plated

A fancy suite, your seasonal people cheering, sounding oh so silent
Cuffed behind bars of gold, with bright lights and bouquets of vioelts
Despite the luxuries, I don't know what else is there to be there
But just looking at a facet of a diamond doesn’t make it a square
My tear wiping handkerchiefs, your dollar bills and notes
Unheard heartbearts of your diamond heart, wrapped in your velvet coats
My costly gold-made pricetags, you paid for and finally said your oath
All I ever wanted was a prince charming, and you were my knight in gold armour, both

This love-plated exchange of gold, will never go too far to stay shine-like
We started off by farewelling hellos and welcoming goodbyes
So tell me how we were to move with our love-deprived tries?
Our confessions and promises were quieter than our unsaid conversations
Darling, shine and glitter rusts with time, unlike love and understandings
And now, tearing the bad pages of this story won't change the ending

This brightly lit chamber, outdone by your promises sounding quiet and new
My price tags read, a showpiece to love, so I gold rushed to you
Despite that luxury, I don't know what else is there, to be there
But just looking at a facet of a diamond doesn’t make it anything less
Your glimmerings caught my eye, I always wanted pretty and gorgeous
Your flashy diamond heart, a brand so expensive to buy and have
And now everytime I see that, I see myself reflecting back

But now I have to break this to you, all we ever had was fool's gold
Not everything that sparkles is pretty beneath the surface of what's actually old
And now you're just a why to the decisions I made in a hustle
All that's left now is a sad tragedy and unsolved hassles
These heartbeats were just another tick of time of rusting gold shackles

This love-plated exchange of gold, will never go too far to stay shine-like
We started off by farewelling hellos and welcoming goodbyes
So tell me how we were to work out with our love-deprived ties?
Our confessions and promises were quieter than our unsaid conversations
Darling, shine and glitter rusts with time, unlike love and understandings
And now, tearing the bad pages of this story won't change the ending

ynopsis:

Love-plated is just a stereotype-breaker song of how rich men and beautiful women are considered successful factors of a good relationship/marriage. :) Hence the word love-plated (just like gold-plated stuff), I have used because what is outside is never what's on the inside.
