Do you wanna die
On my cross tonight
Let me crucify you
I'll be yr boss tonight
I feel yr light
Puritanical lie
Shake off that puritan mask
And pray to Mary tonight
I don't want to die in yr arms tonight
I don't want to overdose right here
Pick me up, place me outside
Because I don't wanna die
Soaked in yr tears
Die on my cross tonight
Let me crucify you
I'll be yr boss tonight
I feel yr light
Yr puritanical lie
Shake off that puritan mask
And pray to Mary tonight
I don't want to die in yr arms tonight
I don't want to overdose right here
Pick me up, place me outside
Because I don't wanna die
Soaked in yr tears
