  • Interior – Charli XCX

    Be sure you know what you are after

    Open up every scar

    I’ve been known to strike like disaster

    They say I hit hard

    Think anyone, anyone but you, anyone, anyone but—

    Think anyone, anyone but you

    Should have known what you were after

    When you fell in love

    The interior design of my— (fell in love)

    The interior design of my— (fell in love)

    The interior design of my— (fell in love)

    The interior design of my heart

    Now I’ve got you where I want you

    Never say you were not warned

    I’ll make you wish you were never born

    The harder you fight, the harder you fall

    Think anyone, anyone but you, anyone, anyone but—

    Think anyone, anyone but you

    Should have known what you were after

    When you fell in love

    The interior design of my— (fell in love)

    The interior design of my— (fell in love)

    The interior design of my— (fell in love)

    The interior design of my heart

    Thought I was processed, thought I was packaged

    Just like an apple pie wrapped in the plastic

    Got love but you’re never gonna have it

    Fell so hard like Alice and the Rabbit

    Locked down, can’t move, now you don’t know what to do

    Took a bite of the apple, went straight to the core

    Fell in love with my interior

    Think anyone, anyone but you, anyone, anyone but—

    Think anyone, anyone but you

    Should have known what you were after

    When you fell in love

    The interior design of my— (fell in love)

    The interior design of my— (fell in love)

    The interior design of my— (fell in love)

    The interior design of my heart

    When you fell in love

    Fell in love

    Fell in love

    Fell in love

    Exploring Vulnerability and Self-Discovery in “Interior”

    Charli XCX’s “Interior” delves deep into themes of emotional exposure and the complexities of love. The metaphor of “interior design” cleverly represents the inner workings of her heart, suggesting that falling in love is akin to navigating a complex and personal space. The lyrics reflect a sense of guardedness, with references to scars and past hurts, but also a willingness to let someone in. There’s a powerful push-and-pull dynamic, as Charli warns of the risks involved in loving her, highlighting both her strength and the vulnerability beneath. The song’s references to familiar tales like Alice in Wonderland and the forbidden apple create a vivid narrative of temptation and consequence. Ultimately, “Interior” paints a portrait of love as something both beautiful and hazardous, where true connection means seeing—and accepting—the real person within.

    You make me feel like I could sparkle through the night

    You are beautiful like lightning

    When you kiss me I’m electrified

    You are like magic

    You’re my angel in the sky

    You’re my baby, never leave me

    Catching all the tears I cry, oh

    You’re the glow in my heartbeat

    You’re the spark in the empty room

    You’re the song on the repeat

    You’re the star and you’re in full bloom

    And I hope that you know, I’ma always be right by your side

    Crystals just don’t satisfy

    Hey, did you know that I’ll always be in love with you?

    I can’t fake it, my heart’s taken

    Our love cuts like diamonds

    Your love alone, worth finding

    Give me your heart, give me what you’re hiding

    Our love cuts like diamonds

    Our love will burn down cities

    Your love, the fire within me

    Give me your hand, we are shining

    Our love cuts like diamonds

    I feel your power

    We could take over the world

    You’re the apple of my eye

    I know that I’m your only supergirl

    Don’t need no rubies, don’t need emeralds or pearls

    We are perfect just the way we are

    Hey, did you know that I’ll always be in love with you?

    I can’t fake it, my heart’s taken

    Our love cuts like diamonds

    Your love alone, worth finding

    Give me your heart, give me what you’re hiding

    Our love cuts like diamonds

    Our love will burn down cities

    Your love, the fire within me

    Give me your hand, we are shining

    Our love cuts like diamonds

    Da-da-da-da-da-da

    Our love will burn down cities

    Your love, the fire within me

    Give me your hand, we are shining

    Our love cuts like diamonds

    Our love cuts like diamonds

    Burning colors in your brain

    Emelline just ruled the world, and it won’t be the same

    Unknot your lips, embrace the trips

    And tend after your tails

    Or tie me to the kitchen chair if all else fails

    Acoustic treats, sadistic beats

    Get your shoes, move your feet

    Emelline, you’re running out of time to impress

    Take off your dress and let them look at the scars

    From when you met the stars in the backseat of your car

    Standing like a dollar glass around your neck

    Just cover it up

    Put on your spectacles and be a good girl like mommy said

    Don’t let the pills affect your head

    Keep your eyes wide and secretly smile

    And everybody will try to connect with you and adapt to you

    They’ll want to dance with you

    They’ll have to crawl across the room just to get to you, wow!
