Welcome To England

[Julie]

"Do a dance for me."
Baby, it is late
Still you pour me
A tall one
"Go on
Let the liquid take off what you're on.
You've been down before..."
Boy, not like this.
I'm in quicksand
I am sinking
Fast
"Perfect," he laughed
"'Cause your other half has got himself
A Devil's access--

Welcome to England,"
He said,
"Welcome to my world.
You better bring your own sun
Sweet girl.
You gotta bring your own sun
Now, don't you forget--
You bring your own sun
Just enough
For everyone."

Heels on
Go on
Bang a Tango but do not get tangled
Who can stay strong?
When they only give us lies to lean on
When your heart explodes
Is it deathly cold?
You must let the colors violate the
Blackness
There is
A magic world parallel
So leave your daily Hell--

"Welcome to England,"
He said,
"Welcome to my world..."
It's not a question if I can
Fight by your side
And withstand
Anything but
I forgot
That you said,
"Girl
If you come
You better bring your sun.
Sweet girl
You gotta bring your sun
Now don't you forget
You bring your sun--
Just enough for
Everyone
For everyone
"Welcome to England"
Welcome to england

Tori has said that "Welcome To England" is a true story about her adjustment to moving to London for her husband. That she's gonna bring her own sun...stay true to who she is even though she's giving up something to be with someone else. Or the line "You must let the colors violate the blackness." Make things better in your own way. I think it's about the sacrifice she made for him to stay together and how it hasn't been easy. The line about "I'm in quicksand, I am sinking fast." makes me think that it was very hard to adapt. But I think the core of this song is about staying true to yourself.
