This song is the 12th and closing track from her album Froot(2015).
This song sounds kinda similar to Lorde’s Glory And Gore, but it has got something special in it. The way that she sings the song makes it really interesting and the background music makes it even more better. The lyrics don’t seem to make much sense to me, but the composition and the production is beautiful.

Can make a flower bloom

We wanna be remembered
        Ab           Cm
Don’t wanna live in vain

But nothing lasts forever

This world is in a losing game

It’s not enough to live out a lucky life
