A World Alone Lyrics

Cover art for A World Alone lyrics by Lorde

I always thought she said, “I'm biding my time" rather than “I'm biting my tongue."

Like she knows that it won't last forever and maybe something better is waiting for her but at the moment she's content with dancing in the world alone. Y'know?

I think the idea of biting my tongue is holding back your thoughts or opinions. Perhaps, its her way of saying she doesn't want to be involve in their meaningless conversations or petty remarks.
