Close the window, bruv? Fuck it, right?

Dark hearts
We know you fake but we still roll anyway
It keeps me on my toes and gives me joke let's play this game
We know you fake but we still roll anyway
Let's play this game
[Verse 1]
At the after-party, anti-social, butterflies all floating
Hey ho! Let's all do the smokey cokey!
Left hand in, but just a bit
Never forget that it just ain't it
Right hand out, oh no
He's showing you famous people saved to his phone
So shake it all about, take about, take the piss
Smile when the camera clicks
We're talking but you're looking through me
For someone you brought with to schmooze with
Until you hear that I'm moving
Now you adore me, and we're groovy
Their fun comes from the brewery
Of what names they drop the next day in their story
Well pull out your stash we can chat til you're fashionably horny
Cuz you bore me, you're-
[Chorus]
Fake, but I don't care at all
Mate, we know what's going on
(Giddy up now) Giddy up now
(Giddy up now) Ride the snakes
(Giddy up now) Giddy up now
(Giddy up now) Ride the snakes
Fake, but I don't care at all
Mate, we know what's going on
(Giddy up now) Giddy up now
(Giddy up now) Ride the snakes
(Giddy up now) Giddy up now
(Giddy up now) Ride the snakes
[Verse 2]
Wait up
Even with actual mates interaction is fake
Like, "Hey, bruv, you automatically change how you talk when I'm in your range."
"Hey, bruv, I heard those whispers and hisses spit all over my back."
Paid 'nuff ways, and not just for drinks
Trust is like an ice rink
I smell something when I look in the mirror
The sniff of a sick little figure
Shriveling away with the seas in the shiver
Knee-deep in bullshit and talking and hiccups
It stinks when I'm coming down, I'm paranoid
That's the time when you can't avoid
The fact that your mate's off, fake and void
Of anything of any of your hopes and joys
Got to take the time away
Why not to try a type again?
Lock your eyes with mine and gaze at eyes of pain from miles away
Hold my hand that starts to shaking
All the sweat you pause to say
"Not your friend, we're not the same"
Why do people be this way?
Words to show that we were safe
Sleeves that hide no knives or blade
That's the way to check it
I can see you hold one in your face
Underneath your tongue, in your dimples when you smile and say
"Ooh, how's it going? Nice to meet you, mate"
You're-
[Chorus]
Fake, but I don't care at all (Dark hearts)
Mate, we know what's going on
(Giddy up now) Giddy up now
(Giddy up now) Ride the snakes
(Giddy up now) Giddy up now
(Giddy up now) Ride the snakes
{Dark hearts)
Fake, but I don't care at all (Dark hearts)
Mate, we know what's going on
(Giddy up now) Giddy up now
(Giddy up now) Ride the snakes
(Giddy up now) Giddy up now
(Giddy up now) Ride the snakes
[Bridge]
No, none o' you don't really like me
No, none o' you don't really like me
No, none o' you don't really like me
Cause I don't really like you
I know none o' you don't really like me
No, none o' you don't really like me
No, none o' you don't really like me
Cause I don't really like you
(Dark hearts)
But we keep it pumpin' like the- (Dark hearts)
No love or trust, none of the- (Dark hearts)
We double bluffin' with the- (Dark hearts)
[Chorus]
You're-
Fake, but I don't care at all
Mate, we know what's going on
(Giddy up now) Giddy up now
(Giddy up now) Ride the snakes
(Giddy up now) Giddy up now
(Giddy up now) Ride the snakes
You're-
Fake, but I don't care at all
Mate, we know what's going on
[Outro]
Just look buff but they don't put it back in
Huff and they puff and it's all just fashion
Frown and they plop but they have a good impassion
Seen it all before, now it rarely ever happens
