Pink has shared a video for the title track off her new album “Beautiful trauma”.
The track, written by Pink herself with Jack Antonoff (Taylor Swift, Lorde, Fifth Harmony), is a pop rock song that speaks to the hard work that goes into a years-long relationship (the singer has been married to Carey Hart for 11 years.)
The colourful music video was directed and choreographed by Nick Florez and RJ Durell. It features actor and dancer Channing Tatum and sees the pair playing a married couple in the ’50s. They dance old-school-style in a series of garishly colored polyester outfits.
Pink’s seventh album was released in early October and instantly went to No. 1.
Lyrics:
We were on fire
I slashed your tires
It’s like we burn so bright, we burn out
I made you chase me
I wasn’t that friendly
My love, my drug, we’re fucked up, oh
‘Cause I’ve been on the run so long they can’t find me
You’re waking up to remember I’m pretty
And when the chemicals leave my body
Yeah, they’re gonna find me in a hotel lobby
Mmm, tough
Times they keep comin’
All night
Laughin’ and fuckin’
Some days like I’m barely breathin’
After we were high and the love dope died it was you
The pill I keep takin’
The nightmare I wake in
There’s nothin’, no nothin’, nothin’ but you
My perfect rock bottom
My beautiful trauma
My love, my love, my drug, oh
My love, my love, my love, my drug, oh
My love, my love, my love, my drug, oh
My love, my love, my love, my drug, oh
My love, (oh) my love, my drug, we’re fucked up
You punched a hole in
The wall and I framed it
I wish I could feel things like you
Everyone’s chasing
That holy feeling
And if we don’t stay lit we’ll blow out
Blow out
‘Cause we’ve been on the run so long they can’t find us
Who’s gonna have to die to remind us
That it feels like we chose this (chose this) blindly
Now I’m gonna fuck up a hotel lobby
‘Cause these tough
Times they keep comin’
Last night
I might have messed it up again
Some days like I’m barely breathin’
But after we were high and the love dope died it was you
The pill I keep takin’
The nightmare I wake in
There’s nothin’, no nothin’, nothin’ but you
My perfect rock bottom
My beautiful trauma
My love (my love), my love, my drug, oh
My love, my love (my love), my love, my drug, oh
My love (my love), my love (my drug), my love, my drug, oh
My love (my love), my love (my love), my love, my drug, oh
(My drug) my love, (my love), my love, my drug, we’re fucked up
These tough
Times they keep comin’
All night
Laughin’ and fuckin’
Some days like I’m barely breathin’
After we were high and the love dope died it was you
The pill I keep takin’
The nightmare I wake in
There’s nothin’, no nothin’, nothin’ but you
My perfect rock bottom
My beautiful trauma
My love, my love, my drug, oh (drug)
