The Tradition - Halsey

Oh the loneliest girl in town

Is bought for pennies a price

We dress her up in lovely gowns

She's easy on the eyes

Her soul is black and it's a fact

That her sneer will eat you alive

And the buyer always brings her back

Because all she does is cry

So take what you want take what you can

Take what you please don't give a d**n

Ask for forgiveness never permission

Take what you want take what you can

Take what you please don't givе a d**n

It's in the blood and this is tradition

Ooh-ooh

Oh the loneliеst girl in town

Was bought for plenty a price

Well they dress her up in golden crowns

His smile hides a lie

She smiles back but it's a fact

That her fear will eat her alive

Well she got the life that she wanted

But now all she does is cry

Take what you want take what you can

Take what you please don't give a d**n

Ask for forgiveness never permission

Take what you want take what you can

Take what you please don't give a d**n

It's in the blood and this is tradition

You can't take it back it's good as gone

Well flesh amnesiac this is your song

And I hope what's left will last all summer long

And they said that boys were boys but they were wrong

Take what you want take what you can

Take what you please don't give a d**n

Ask for forgiveness never permission

Take what you want take what you can

Take what you please don't give a d**n

It's in the blood and this is tradition

Take what you want take what you can

Take what you please don't give a d**n

Ask for forgiveness never permission

Take what you want take what you can

Take what you please don't give a d**n

It's in the blood and this is tradition

It's good as gone
