CRESTWOOD - As I Live & Breathe... Lyrics

Remember the nights when the paper used to burn
And ignite the fire in your eyes as my stomach turned
Swear you the love of my life
You pressed your face into my sternum
Placed your hand across my heart and my body started squirming
Fingers curled up like a perm
And to that moment I'd like to return and have a word
Just a warning that the tables might turn
And one day you'll be left with a man
That isn't able to learn from the past or worse
Left in the back of a hearse or an urn full of ash
See I might not have too much cash
I might not be super flash but I promise
If we can make this shit last one day
We'll jump on a plane to somewhere cool like Nebraska
And hope that it crashes
So I can spend the last moments of my life with you
I'm running faster from the pain, the misery and shame
Memories that the past left
It all disappears when I hear that f*cking laugh
Let's just take a second to reassess my actions
I know I'm brash and I say shit just for your reaction
I always check when you're active
Who you with, what you doing or where you at
And I just hope you don't mind me asking
Because whenever he turned his back for a second they always stabbed him
My mind is racing my hands are shaking I think I'm passing
Think I need me a pastor
Girl you hot like the laksa you used to order on those nights
I flew across the border just to hit that ass
And now you caught up in my web
And I'm just chilling on the ceiling looking down while receiving head
Bet your face turning red
I love the warmth of your bed
I love the blonde in your hair
Even the smell of your breathe
I love to play with your breasts
And when we pull up the Hasbro on FaceTime or late nights playing chess
Girl I think I'm obsessed with you
Take off those f*cking shoes
Put on some f*cking tunes
Let's get in the f*cking mood
Honestly I'm down for whatever let's just lay down and spoon
Or find a place to hide and just stare at the moon for a while
Girl you make me smile
Like I used to when I was a child
Like I used to before I bodied myself with these vials
In an attempt to delete these files
These folders full of pictures that made me grow colder as I grew older
I need a shoulder to lean on and a hand to hold
A person that understands I made some mistakes before
And there's still some shit I can't say
But that's okay
All that matters is who I am today
Is it too late
Tell me it's not too late
God please show me a sign I think I'm loosing faith
Would you send me some grace right now if you could see my state
I think I see my fate and it's an early grave
We all need to be saved
We all need to feel safe
We all need to escape
Not through these drugs or these bottles please can we close this case
All we need is some love and a familiar face
