[Verse 1]
Close myself off in new ways
Building walls in my sleep, I can't turn back
I've been reelin' for twelve days (Twelve)
When I start to see if it gets real bad

[Chorus]
Hurt me, know you won't hurt me
I'm about to detonate
Pull you close, and then, I'll be gone
Sorry, never say sorry
All my silence resonates
Think you worked me out, but you're wrong
Dirty, I can talk dirty
I can make you feel so sick
Switch your faith and leave you so low
Hurt me, know you'll never hurt me
I'm about to detonate
Pull you close, and then, I'll be gone

[Post-Chorus]
I don't trust myself at all
Why should you trust me?
I don't trust myself alone
Why should you love me?

[Verse 2]
I'm not tryna be rude
I'm just feelin' confused
My emotions get blue
Had to push 'em all through
Know you hope that I'll prove
Everything will stay cool
But I can't promise that's true
'Cause my emotions so blue

[Chorus]
Hurt me, know you won't hurt me
I'm about to detonate
Pull you close, and then, I'll be gone
Sorry, never say sorry
All my silence resonates
Think you worked me out, but you're wrong
Dirty, I can talk dirty
I can make you feel so sick
Switch your faith and leave you so low
Hurt me, know you'll never hurt me
I'm about to detonate
Pull you close, and then, I'll be gone

[Post-Chorus]
I don't trust myself at all
Why should you trust me?
I don't trust myself alone
Why should you love me?

[Outro]
Do-do-do-do you love me?
So do you love me?
Do-do-do-do you love me?
Why should you love me?
Do-do-do-do you love me?
So do you love me?
Do-do-do-do you love me?
Why should you love me?
Do-do-do-do you love me?
So do you love me?
Do-do-do-do you love me?
Why should you love me?
Do-do-do-do you love me?
So do you love me?
Do-do-do-do you love me?
Why should you love me?

Charli XCX

Charlotte Emma Aitchison (born 2 August 1992), known professionally as Charli XCX, is an English singer-songwriter known for her eclectic style. She began making music at fourteen, and her debut release was a 2008 limited-edition album aptly titled 14.

By 2010, Charli signed to Atlantic Records, and released her debut single “Stay Away” in May 2011. She released her “real” debut album, True Romance, in 2013. The record met critical acclaim but failed to attain much commercial success. Charli’s true breakthrough came with the release of hit collaborations like Iggy Azalea’s “Fancy” and Icona Pop’s “I Love It.”

In April 2014, Charli found solo success with “Boom Clap,” which was featured on the soundtrack of The Fault in Our Stars. It’s now certified triple platinum in the United States and gold in her native United Kingdom. Her sophomore album, Sucker, was a pop-punk oriented effort and enjoyed more success than her debut. “Break The Rules,” “Doing It” (featuring Rita Ora), and “Famous” all performed well on the UK singles chart.
