Lyric Video by Sasha Guimaraes
Lyrics:
It always goes like this
Could’ve predicted it
I’m so naive to think you loved me for me
Kissed as I ran off stage
You’re too old to play this game
Guess you’re still growing up at thirty
Were you surprised by me?
When you took me home
When the glamor wore off
Reduced to skin and bone
I can’t even tell
Who you want to know
I’m a goddess on stage
Human when we’re alone
You took a star to bed
Woke up with me instead
You must have felt so damn deceived
When you
Made up version of
Me that you thought you’d love
But I am not your Aphrodite
Were you surprised by me?
When you took me home
When the glamor wore off
Reduced to skin and bone
I can’t even tell
Who you want to know
I’m a goddess on stage
And human when we’re alone
You took me for a fool
You stole my youth
You wanted this so much
You watched me rise
Then killed my light
And now you know
I’m not your fucking goddess
I’m no goddess when I’m alone

[@heartzpillow]

Goddess is so goood!! And the fact she sweared in the song shows how much pain she’s been in..

[@6oifish]

i love how she doesn't overuse cursing in her songs, so when she does curse, it's not an 'oh, yeah, this is normal' moment, and it's more like an 'oh shoot, she's actually really upset' typa moment.

[@sukitatqm]

​@@novamaniacthis comment doesn't say it's the first time she curses in a song, it says that when she does curse, it has a deep meaning

[@kaila4928]

laufey is really feeding her musician fans by giving us the chords 😭😭

[@theopinson3851]

Gives up the Radiohead reference. ;) I feel like you can’t go from major to minor on the same chord without sounding like them lol

[@jordanstarr2992]

@@theopinson3851 what?! hahah- idk about that. i think 5/4 feels more radiohead then major to minor that, makes me think of alex turner actually lol.

[@theopinson3851]

@@jordanstarr2992 IDK they do it a lot, most famously on Creep but all over the place. I definitely feel like it’s one of their signature harmonic moves.

[@ahmedalsayed444]

Guys what does it mean when it's written like "BB major"? Or "A7(B13)" ?

[@theopinson3851]

@@ahmedalsayed444 Bb is B flat. The (13) is an added 13th note. So if the notes of an A chord are A, C#, and E, the 7th would be a G, 9th would be a B, 11th D, 13 F

[@sillycat8815]

the transition between “when *we’re* alone” to “when *I’m* alone” is so……. like I can’t describe how it makes me feel

[@aliannadorsey9398]

AGONY 😭

[@newhairnewteenewjeans]

laufey is literally a lyrical genius bro the whole chorus is just so beautifully honest 😭

[@HanabiKatanawa]

Awh but she doesn't write her own songs, like I don't think so because I saw she has a songwriter on Spotify:(

[@talents010]

Goddesses don't curse, humans do. Forever be the beautiful human you are Laufey!

[@Mason-is4mr]

God's and goddesses most absolutely do curse lol

[@leonicodemus8566]

whole point of the song is that she ISN'T a goddess... that was in HIS head.

“ you took a star to bed, woke up with me instead” made me feel so like idk how to describe it

[@cheezwhizisz2054]

This song is such a beautiful expression of emotion. The whole meaning of the song is protrayed through the lyrics "I'm a Goddess on stage, Human when we're alone." And the pure raw powerful vocals demonstrate her being 100% herself❤

[@zhn97]

This song speaks for me. Risking myself to be open here, if anyone who knows me stumbled on this, just ignore or leave a kind note. Whichever you choose. Recently had a breakup, only a day after new year’s. 2 months went by but the pain still feels like it just happened yesterday. We were together for 6 years and we did everything together, we experienced life together and we explored ourselves together. He was the person who taught me how to love when I didn’t know how to, he changed my mind in so many ways. He was gentle and kind. He used to be a sweet boy, one that you would’ve never thought could do the things that you’d expect from a man these days. How betrayed i felt when he finally did it. He left and replaced me within days/weeks. The heartbreak was indescribable, I almost went insane. He told me in the end, that he couldn’t accept me for who i am and his reason was to focus more on his work, he didn’t want anything to drag him down. What he didn’t say was, he already had someone else in mind. Why this song resonates so well with me is because, he expected me to be this perfect person to fit into his ideal perfect relationship. He wanted me to be everything he ever pictured in a woman. I put on a show to everyone everyday and i showed my real self to him and him only. Sometimes I think he forgets that i’m a human too, I’m not a fcking goddess.

[@LYRIC_AND_LAUFEY]

hoping that you're doing well now, things do get better even if they don't seem they will

[@Bu-bo-Bu-bo]

Hi ! I just wanted to tell you that i feel sorry for your loss. It can be very painful. The lesson for this and for everybody (and for me) is that the adjective "idealist" is NOT ALWAYS a quality. I have known several person - including my own brother - who are idealist, and...sometimes it leads to people not living in the reality and...well, putting people on piedestal, exactly what you describe. 6 years is long, it will be several months before you get better. But you will, someday. Focus on something else, throw everything linked to him, forbid yourself to talk about him, and it will help. It's hard, but it will help. And don't ever try to contact him or, if he does first, to reply. It's hard, but it will help. Until then, be strong !

[@iamkazuha]

this song is the sound of getting your soul purified and sent into the heavens

Laufey is probably producing the modern equivalent of bohemian rhapsody on an emotional level the use of dynamics and vowels are just mmm so fresh and vibrant Laufey is an amazing story teller and I love her music
