A Princess Die

Η Lady Gaga παρουσίασε live για πρώτη φορά ένα νέο της τραγούδι, το "Princess Die", κατά την διάρκεια των συναυλιών της στην Αυστραλία! Το κομμάτι είναι μια piano ballad, στα πρότυπα του "You And I", με τον τίτλο του να αποτελεί μια έμμεση αναφορά στην πριγκήπισσα Diana  και τον άδοξο θάνατο της το 1997.

Στιχουργικά, το "Princess Die" αναφέρεται στην αυτοκτονία και την συνασθηματική δυσλειτουργία.  Πάντως η Gaga τονίζει πως το κομμάτι μπορει και να μην συμπεριληφθεί στο νέο της album, ενώ σίγουρα δεν είναι αντιπροσωπευτικό του συνολικού μουσικού ύφους της νέας της δουλειάς. 

LADY GAGA “PRINCESS DIE”
Leave the coffin open when I go
And leave my pearls and lipstick on so everybody knows
Pretty’ll be the photograph I leave
Laying down on famous knives so everybody sees

Bleach out all the dark, I’ll swallow
Each peroxide shot, someone I know can save me from myself
Maybe I’ll just clean the shit off of these fancy shoes
I’ll be a Princess Die and die with you

I wish that I was strong
I wish that I was wrong
I wish that I could cope, but I took pills and left a note

I’m hungry from an anorexic heart
I’ve been trying to tell you how I feel but was never very smart
I’m wrapped in silks made for Egyptian queens
I’ll do it in the swimming pool so everybody sees

Bleach out all the dark
I’ll swallow each peroxide shot, volumes I know

Will love and save me from myself
Maybe I’ll just clean the shit off of these fancy shoes
I’ll be a Princess Die and die with you

Princess Die, I want to see her cry
Princess Die, Princess Die
We want to watch her cry
Princess Die

Wish that I was strong
Wish that I was wrong
Wish that I could cope, but I took pills and left a note

And wish that I would go
In my rich boyfriend’s limo, oh oh
Right after he proposed
With a 16-carat stone wrapped in rose gold
With the papparazzi all swarming ’round
In my Louis Vuitton white button-down
Oh, it’s not that deep
So bob head your head for another dead blonde
Whose real prince is in heaven
She just wants to sleep

The final act of life will be in my own hands to do
I’ll be a Princess Die and die with you, applaud pour vous
