Hi,

What do you think of this song? It's called Your Love Is Plastic.

(Verse)
Have you always been so ferocious?
Or was I tricked by fake emotions?
Get out of my sight,
Want you out of my mind
Au-revoir! Sans moi! (french)
 
Has my mind always been so irrational?
I was blind and you were just terrible
But now I’m glad to
See the back of you
Au-revoir! Casse-moi! (french)
 
(Prechorus)
But now I realise you were my blessing in disguise
Why did you have to add fuel to the fire?
Stay where you are! Don’t you dare turn around, dare turn around now
 
 
(Chorus)
Cause your love is plastic, I don’t wanna stay
You promised gold but used me for your entertain-
ment, go home!
Cause plastic love ,it always ends
Worthless and transparent
Everyone can see through it (2x)

(Verse 2)

Have you ever thought
about the things that went wrong?
It's getting tough and you're hiding behind walls
Let you mind speak
Cause there's no repeat
It's over, it's over

(Prechorus)
But now I realise you were my blessing in disguise
Why did you have to add fuel to the fire?
Stay where you are! Don’t you dare turn around, dare turn around now

(Chorus)

(Bridge)
Disappointment hurts and lets
my feelings become such a mess
When I'm mad I don't know myself
don't know myself..

(Chorus)
Cause your love is plastic, I don’t wanna stay
You promised gold but used me for your entertain-
ment, go home!
Cause plastic love ,it always ends
Worthless and transparent
Everyone can see through it (2x)

Hi and welcome!

I like the hook and you've placed it well at the first of the chorus.
And you stay true to it - no doubt about the message in the song.
I would have liked to see more rhyming in the chorus to make it memorable, and all plastic is not transparent - so that line kind of threw me off a bit.

Thanks for posting this - and please join in and review other lyrics - that's what makes this a fun place!  ;D ;D

You got me hooked with your hook ;-)

The rest of the chorus doesn't keep up with it, though. A few rhymes would do it good IMO.

In the bridge 'your' inner turmoil could maybe worked out a bit more (if my interpretation is correct, that is).

Cheers,
Bernd
