Crush

Verse

Saw you in the hallway, eyes like summer rain

Laughing with your friends, pulling me in again

Stolen glances, yeah, I catch 'em every time

Butterflies go wild, but you're never mine

Pre-chorus

I replay our talks in my head all night

Hoping for a sign, but it don't feel right

Your voice on the phone, it pulls me under

Why can't I just tell you, put this ache to thunder?

Chorus

This crush is killing me slow

Every look, every word, it's a blow

I want you bad, but you don't even know

Heartbreak in my chest, yeah, it's starting to show

Crush, crush, breaking me down

Crush, crush, turning inside out

Oh-oh, why'd you have to be so...

(so damn perfect)

Verse

Text you late at night, get a "hey" reply

Read into the dots, but it's all goodbye

Saw you with her hand in yours, world went black

That smile I chased? Now it's stabbing back

Pre-chorus

I fake a grin when you walk on by

Bottle up the hurt, let it multiply

One more "what if," one more dream to shatter

This crush was fire, now it's embers that matter

Chorus

This crush is killing me slow

Every look, every word, it's a blow

I want you bad, but you don't even know

Heartbreak in my chest, yeah, it's starting to show

Crush, crush, breaking me down

Crush, crush, turning inside out

Oh-oh, why'd you have to be so...

(so damn perfect)

Bridge

(Let go, let go) I scream inside my room

Punching at the walls, chasing empty fumes

You were my everything, now just a ghost

Crush turned to dust, yeah, I miss you most

Chorus

This crush is killing me slow (killing me slow)

Every look, every word, it's a blow

I want you bad, but you don't even know (don't even know)

Heartbreak in my chest, yeah, it's starting to show

Crush, crush, breaking me down

Crush, crush, turning inside out

Oh-oh, why'd you have to be so...

(so damn perfect)

Crush, crush... (breaking me)

Outro

Yeah, this crush... it's gone...

(oh-oh)
