Crushing

Verse1

Pin drops on the carpet hear it echo through the halls

That’s how tense it gets when I try to speak to you

Every word premeditated, thinking through each call

Any less than perfect I just feel so weak to you

I wish we’d avoid, the small talk and circumstances, take more chances on us

It’s killing me softly, the pressure to get this right- suffocating

Chorus

But the harder you play to get, makes it easier falling for you

Just don’t get your ways, but you always get your way

When you build me up and break me down, no wonder why I’m crushing all the time, crushing all the time

But if I’m crushing, then I guess it’s all a matter of time

Verse2

Full moon takes the sky, illuminating my desires

Showing every reason why I need you close to me

Loving you means peace to me I’ll do what that requires

But I shouldn’t have to fight for you to notice me

This is not infatuation, this is discipline and patience moving slow until you’re comfortable

This is no exaggeration, but I could hold the weight of the world if I’m in your embrace

Chorus

But the harder you play to get, makes it easier falling for you

Just don’t get your ways, but you always get your way

When you build me up and break me down, no wonder why I’m crushing all the time, crushing all the time

But if I’m crushing, then I guess it’s all a matter of time

Instrumental Break

Chorus

But the harder you play to get, makes it easier falling for you

Just don’t get your ways, but you always get your way

When you build me up and break me down, no wonder why I’m crushing all the time, crushing all the time

But if I’m crushing, then I guess it’s all a matter of time
