I told her I'd be gone for an hour or two
To fix his bike
I told them I got caught up at work
With a pile of paper tonight
You don't understand the pain
That I felt when I waved my child goodbye
You can trust me I feel more than enough
Guilt without a child

Victoria Line, now, are we fine now?
Wait till lock, so I touch my hand
Planned all this time to commit our crime
Someone will have to understand

And why do we hurt the people around us?
Why do we break the ones that we love most?
I don't wanna hurt no, I don't wanna hurt no more

And why do we chase the perfect delusion?
Tearing it all apart for no reason?
I don't even know you, I don't even know you, no

I don't know why I always keep hurting
The ones I love the most
Come on now, I know you want it
It's so late, we're way too close
So open up some wine, now
Let's feel fine, now
Put your weight right on my chest
If you want you can go
But see you later
Someone will have to clean this mess

And why do we hurt the people around us?
Why do we break the ones that we love most?
I don't wanna hurt no, I don't wanna hurt no more

And why do we chase the perfect delusion?
Tearing it all apart for no reason?
I don't even know you, I don't even know you, no

Hide, we hide with the sunglasses on our faces
Hide, you hide, I hide, 'cause we're out of place
Out of place, out of place

And why do we hurt the people around us?
Why do we break the ones that we love most?
I don't wanna hurt no, I don't wanna hurt no more

And why do we chase the perfect delusion?
Tearing it all apart for no reason?
I don't even know you, I don't even know you, no
Oh, I don't even know you, I don't even know you, no

But we keep riding the Victoria Line
