The Man With The Axe (Lyrics)

If I had to break it down, Iā€™d say itā€™s the way you love to danceā€”
Moving the furniture when my back is turned
A flick of the lights and the world falls away
And your office job, and your silver hair
But our shapes in the dark are the reason Iā€™ve stayed for all these years

I thought I was a genius
But now Iā€™m 22, and itā€™s starting to feel like all I know how to do is put on a suit and take it away
With my fistful of tunes that itā€™s painful to play
Fingernail worlds, like favourite seashells
They fill up my nights and then they float away

Iā€™ve got hundreds of gowns, Iā€™ve got paintings in frames And a throat that fills with panic every festival day
Dutifully falling apart for the princess of Norway

But you with your dollā€™s lashes, your infinite T-shirts
I shouldā€™ve known when your favourite record was the same as my fatherā€™s youā€™d take me down

I guess Iā€™ll always be this way, swallowed up by the words and halfway to space
But there by the fire, you offered your hand
And as I took it, I loved you, the boy with the plan

You felled me clean as a pine
The man with the axe
And the light in his eyes

it feels dreamlike to grow up with her music and get to understand this state of mind and maturity from her as we age together, she gave what she promised and i love her sm for that

Its so sad seeing people saying her music sucks now and how they want the old Lorde back. Let her do her thing, this is what she visualized for her album and she made it happen. If you don't like it then leave. Let the people who want to enjoy it, enjoy it.

The thing about lorde is that she does whatever she wants. She is most definitely not a people pleaser and that's refreshing.

i love how lorde uses the difference between casual and formal clothing in this song as a physical manifestation of appearances vs. intimacy. sheā€™s an amazing song writer

She called herself a forest fire (hard to please), but met someone able to take her down, like a tree

never has a love song touched me in the same way this song has. such an intimate proclamation of love. the most mundane and intricate details in the lyrics that seem outlandish to all of us listeners but make divinely perfect sense between ella and who she wrote this about. this song reminds me of how deep love goes, and how i should wait for the right love to enter my life. itā€™s so beyond the physical, itā€™s something deep and spiritual. and lorde effortlessly displayed that in this song. i find it so touching because it feels like iā€™m outside looking in at this beautiful little world sheā€™s constructed with this person, and iā€™ll never truly be able to understand their world, but one day, in a similar yet completely different way iā€™ll understand the world iā€™ve built with someone. we all will.

Iā€™m just going to write this so I can get this thing off my chest. As a gay teen in an non anglocentric country and being considered weird by other people, this song is my favorite from the album purely based on the ability of letting me have the thought of loving someone who clicks with you and is someone who holds your hand. Since all my friends talk about relationships and boyfriends I still desperately dream about having a significant other.

this outro is magical and easily the most beautiful thing lorde has ever created.

Honestly, at first I was like eh with the new album. But I'm currently listening to it on repeat crying as I type this.

that metaphor where the man holds an axe and she is a forest tree and has no choice but to fall down. the same conviction as the way she fell for the man. wooow the imagery is sooooo powerful

I hope she makes a love album in the future. She's a poet and it really shines especially in this track.

I'm glad i was prepared to this kind of sound by taylor's folklore and evermore. The entire tracks of Solar Power are powerful that catches dreamy tropical atmosphere. The production is genius.

Please donā€™t dedicate this song to your lovers, itā€™s too good to become a sad memory you canā€™t bring yourself to go back to.

It's nice to see I'm not the only who thinks this is one of the highlights of the album

"And as I took it, I thought I loved you, the boy with a plan" lyrically this song is truly one of the most beautiful love songs
