Cross Your Fingers Lyrics

In a way, I think this song is about giving up your life to religion. Especially this part: "Oh you'll jump into your grave and die And on my word you'll give up your whole life for me And you'll be reborn bigger and stronger and less alive"

It's like she is saying that if you give up your life to Jesus you'll be forgiven and become better, but you'll be less alive because of all the resttrictions.
