Am I a notion or a substance in your bloodstream? A codeine like ripple that gives false security? So don’t lean upon the enemy I'm sweet but there is venom in every kiss Don’t leave it too long till you spit and rinse your mouth out I see you treat my bathroom sink like you’re at home You believe the things you wanna feel But I can turn the water from hot to cold So now I’m riding solo solo Why you think that I feel so low so low Cos I don’t need nobody Or do I need somebody oh And now I’m riding solo solo Why you think that I feel so low so low Cos I don’t need nobody Or do I need somebody oh I've seen it all before, when trust turns into jealousy I’m here right now but I’ll say loud it’s not for long Yes I like the things you do to me But those things are temporary So now I’m riding solo solo Why you think that I feel so low so low Cos I don’t need nobody Or do I need somebody oh And now I’m riding solo solo Why you think that I feel so low so low Cos I don’t need nobody Or do I need somebody oh I’ve learnt the hard way Don’t trust nobody Head under water I like the sound it makes when I scream I’ve learnt the hard way Crashing through the accidents Your god is safe and my gods just bleed and play So now I’m riding solo solo Why you think that I feel so low so low Cos I don’t need nobody Or do I need somebody oh So now I’m riding solo solo Why you think that I feel so low so low Cos I don’t need nobody Or do I need somebody oh I’ve learnt the hard way Don’t trust nobody I’ve learnt the hard way Don’t trust nobody

You fuck me like I love you You’re lucky I’m still here Cos it’s only make believe when I’m writhing in these sheets beside you Don’t mean to be so brutal Sometimes the pain is kind Now my heart is growing numb so I guess I should move on without you You know that we’re not safe inside this grave we’re digging We keep repeating all the reckless things we do Cos we’re just counting crosses Till our time is through And now we’re counting crosses One for me one for you Be careful of the danger I gave you all the signs Yeah it’s getting hard to breathe yeah this atmosphere is freezing cold Is it too late to save it, save it? When we’re both suffocating? Cos we’re just counting crosses Till our time is through And now we’re counting crosses One for me one for you Cos we’re just counting crosses Till our time is through And now we’re counting crosses One for me one for you

I don’t want the ordinary Or a safety zone Break the rules then lick the honey Taste me 'til you blow Kiss me hard, don't wait until you drown yourself in gin Shut down your control cos baby I’ll walk if you don’t let the wild in I’ll scream it louder please don’t call me pretty I swallow fire. Don’t give me the nice things I wanna play, fall harder ra ra I wanna play, fall harder ra ra Take the lead, don’t scare so easy cos I know what I want Don’t say what you think I wanna hear boy, I like you as the boss Hold me down, show me you want to undress all my sins Lose yourself, don’t think too loudly I’ll walk if you don’t let the wild in I’ll scream it louder please don’t call me pretty I swallow fire. Don’t give me the nice things I wanna play, fall harder ra ra I wanna play, fall harder ra ra I’ll scream it louder please don’t call me cutie I swallow fire. Don’t give me the nice things I wanna play, fall harder ra ra I wanna play, fall harder ra ra I wanna play fall harder ra ra I wanna play fall harder You think you really know me So why don’t you do the things that I want I want you to really own it So grab a knife to make the cut Make the cut I’ll scream it louder please don’t call me pretty I swallow fire. Don’t give me the nice things I wanna play, fall harder ra ra I wanna play, fall harder ra ra I’ll scream it louder please don’t call me cutie I swallow fire. Don’t give me the nice things I wanna play, fall harder ra ra I wanna play, fall harder ra ra I wanna play for harder

Rosie says I want you But I will let you leave me There’s nothing you can do to change me oh I’ve exhausted all the confidence I had As the city throws me round Cos every face I wear won’t purify my lies I know Now I’m chaos tonight I’m chaos tonight I’m chaos still I vandalise myself Won’t confess I really need you tonight Why am I scared of being loved so easy I sabotage it well Too proud to say I need you tonight
