© Copyright 2025. All words and music by Jay Moxham. [Verse 1] Don't show me the truth 
I can cover my eyes, pretend I'm blind. 
Don't tell me the truth 
I'd rather hear nice lies anytime. [Chorus 1] I need all the warmth that I can draw 
The world's easy to ignore
 And there's only wishful thinking
 To save me from sinking
 Through the floor... Through the floor... Through the floor... Through the flooooor.... [Verse 2] Don't ask me to change 
I stick in the mud but I'm secure 
Don't force me to change 
I am a disease that has no cure. [Chorus 2] This way is a way I understand
 A trodden trail that's close at hand
 And there's only wishful thinking
 To save me from sinking
 Through the floor... Through the floor... Through the floor... Through the flooooor.... [Lead break] [Verse 3] Don't ask for my love
 Don't tell me your life could follow mine.
 I wouldn't ask for your love
 Wouldn't snatch at your freedom from behind. [Chorus 3] There was a chance but how dreams fade
 Now we're lost in the charade
 All I have is wishful thinking
 To save me from sinking
 Through the floor... Through the floor... Through the floor... Through the flooooor.... [Outro] Don't... ask for my love. 
Don't... ask me to change. 
Don't... show me the truth. Don't... ask for my love. 
Don't... ask me to change. 
Don't... show me the truth.
