Baby has a broken heart
She can’t belong to only one
Until another girl is found
I don’t pay for anything
My cigarettes or diamonds rings
My feet don’t even touch the ground

Chariots of gold
I ride with Jay-Z, Jared Leto
I’m a superpower
Now they call me the tornado
I got roses in my hair, I belly dance and do the tango
Sometimes I get lonely, everybody told me no

No one lives forever, but that’s no reason to give up
Don’t you wanna fall in love?
No such thing as heaven
And I’m the last girl on earth
So baby, let’s get it on

Cleopatra used to rule
But she got nothing on me now
‘Cause I’m the last girl on earth
I turn the television on
They only play my favorite song
Since I’m the last girl on earth

Chariots of gold
I’m sitting, sipping cherry cola
Caesar said he’d fall in love with me if I was older
I own all of Mexico and I got my own roller-coaster
Sometimes I get lonely, millions can hold me now

No one lives forever, but that’s no reason to give up
Don’t you wanna fall in love?
No such thing as heaven
And I’m the last girl on earth
So baby, let’s get it on

I stay up late at night, try not to think about it
Pretend I’m happy, ruling all the world without love
I get so tired being on display somehow
Sometimes I get lonely, millions all own me now

No one lives forever, but that’s no reason to give up
Don’t you wanna fall in love?
No such thing as heaven
And I’m the last girl on earth
So baby, let’s get it on

No such thing as heaven
And I’m the last girl on earth
So baby, let’s get it on

Is it "Chariots of gold"?

 

I think that must be exactly what it is. Thanks, I was so lost.

One of my favorites. I really hope there's another mix like Madrigal suggested because I really love this song.

I need help with the last line. "Sometimes I get lonely, but really, you don't know me, now" ????
I also kind of hear, "Millions don't know me, now." I'm not sure though.

Millions all own me now. I belong to everybody that I walk by, etc.

 

"Display", though, yes.

Agh I'm hearing a "d" sound but at the same time I can hear the "all" you're talking about. Now I'm getting "Millions all know me, now." Along with what I was already hearing and what you originally had. sIGH.

Geez, HDB, ~making such a confusion over the simplest, most insignificant lyric~ :troll:

 

Now I'm getting "Millions all know me, now."

I hear this quite clearly.

Stalking you has sorta become like my occupation.

Pretend I'm happy with an awful world without love.

I hear "Pretend I'm happy living in a world without love" :P

Nah, Sitar was right in the first place:

Pretend I’m happy, ruling all the world without love

I think I love this song a little more with every year that goes by -- it's gorgeous and such a slow-burner; definitely one of her best unreleased imo

Finally after all these years I finally understand her message with the song. I used to think it was a silly demo, but now I see why its so awesome. I think its powerful when she says nobody lives forever, Heaven isn't real, she's the last girl on Earth... Of course that is all a fantasy, yet it seems so real in a dire situation.

Have been listening to this composition lately throughout July and I have to say- it reminds me of Nick Cave’s works. Lana has waves of reminiscing Cave’s writing but her songs in 2011  really do quite mirrors Cave’s works. Love2
