lyrics

I know what I’ve heard
And I don’t want to hear more
I know she’s strong like me

I kept my word
I kept away from this war
But I know what’s wrong with me

I know she’s got more in common
I know she’s on the same side
She is the logical option
And that’s fine

I don’t want to know what she talks like
I don’t want to know what she wears
I don’t want to know what she sounds like
Till she’s screaming out her final breath

I don’t want to know what she thinks like
And I don’t want to know what she’s read
I don’t want to know what she looks like
Till I look right in the eyes of her severed head

I don’t care if you kill me
‘Cos by then I’d be better off dead
To die by your hand, my beautiful man
Is the closest we’ll ever get
We’ll ever get

I tried to forget
I tried to fall on my sword
Must have forgotten

The plate at my breast
Shielding my heart from its force
Now my fate is written

And you are my singular equal
You, I am willing to fight
If you can best me in battle
That’s alright

I don’t want to know what she walks like
I don’t want to know what she says
I don’t want to know what she moves like
Till she’s running in vain from her death

I don’t want to know what she smells like
And please spare me what she’s like in bed
I don’t want to know what she feels like
Till she kneels right at my feet with my blade at her neck

I don’t care if you kill me
‘Cos at least I can die as I lived
A spear in my fist, your name on my lips
Fighting like I always did
I always did
I always did
