Buttons Lyrics

Cover art for Buttons lyrics by Sia

To me, as stated above, this song makes me think of a girl who likes this guy and he likes her, but she's putting her hand up all 80's style and saying, 'hey, watch out, I'm a ticking bomb'.

Shes' afraid that they guy will find out later and be angry, hurt, etc, and that things will get worse. It's like a defense mechanism.

Great song, wonderful artist.
