"Cross My Heart And Hope To Die" lyrics

They'll suffocate your friends
Then beg you to forget
(Dry-eyed and your hands so stainless)
(Born right when the world was blameless)

You're aching every day
Addicted to decay
(Side eyes in a tight formation)
(Real life at the petrol station)

I saw the PM in the lobby today
And I asked him if he had somethin' he wanted to say
Going 'round 'round 'round like a wishing well (Don't want to know, I've got to know)
Going down down down like a tunnel to hell (Don't want to know, I want it)

No feeling, no tears
No narcissists here
No room on that fence
(Don't want to know, I've got to know)
(Don't want to know, I want it)
There's no dignity left

They'll paralyze the skin
Then kiss your bleeding lips
(Unclean in the paywall palace)
(Get beat by their mindful malice)

You're trying not to crash
An itch you need to scratch
(Pure dread in the top position)
(Check twice for your paid transmission)

Well anchor me deep in apathy
And you can't be an anarchist taking a fee
And I sold my soul for the soles on my shoes (Don't want to know, I've got to know)
And a coal's cold core not getting to you (Don't want to know, I want it)

Reflection of fear
Detention declared
Traumatic appeal
(Don't want to know, I've got to know)
(Don't want to know, I want it)
Thou shalt not steal

You want to give it a break
I want to tear this down
I want to be myself but I don't know how
