Teen Idle

"Teen Idle" is a song by Welsh singer-songwriter Marina Diamandis, professionally known as Marina and formerly as Marina and the Diamonds. The ninth track on her second studio album, Electra Heart (2012), it was released on 27 April 2012 along with the whole record. While the production was handled by Liam Howe, the song was written solely by Diamandis. Too obscure to be released as a single, almost not even making to the final tracklist of the album, the track received a warm reception from her fanbase and grew to a substantial song in Diamandis' discography, which is noted to define the Tumblr "sad girl" subculture and did influence singers like Billie Eilish or Melanie Martinez.

Picking up the pieces one by one
I've been doing this all day long
Do you want to know how far it's gone
Or should I bring this uphill alone?
You don't know one thing about me
Yet you're the city's biggest mystery
If you put it all on the page
You know you might give it away
And I'm hoping something perfect
Might fall down from the sky
Until then I'll be inside
Just closing all the blinds
Glowing is the sunlight, but all I see is black
And all those little feelings
They're never coming back
I climbed up to the top alone
And watch the city burn below
If you won't help me put her to rest
I'll dig the hole by myself
I see the hands are turning 'round
As I make my way downtown
So much has burned down
There's no shelter to be found
And I'm hoping something perfect
Might fall down from the sky
Until then I'll be inside
Just closing all the blinds
Glowing is the sunlight, but all I see is black
And all those little feelings
They're never coming back
Hoping something perfect might fall down from the sky
'Til then I'll be inside, closing all the blinds
Glowing is the sunlight
(The big blue sky)
All I see is black
(The big blue sky)
All those little feelings
(The big blue sky)
They are coming back
(The big blue sky)
They are coming back
They are coming back
(Sky)
They are coming back
They are coming back
(The big blue, the big blue sky)
