White Cross Lyrics

Burning inside
I cross myself, it doesn't help
Because I'm not smart enough

I'm digging into hot white
Learning not to lie
We cross it out and stay away

Burning inside
We cross it out and stay away

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
