The Fall 7/9 (Crash)

Neko you're Trippin'

Intro

mm… yeah

1AM…

engine running…

heart too loud

Verse 1

End of shift, I’m heading home

Empty streets, I’m on my own

Eyes are heavy, mind on you

Same routine I always do

Phone lights up in the dark

Didn’t think it’d hit this hard

Your name there on the screen

Didn’t know what it would mean

Pre-Chorus

One message… that’s all it took

Didn’t even need to look twice

But I knew from the first few words

My whole world just got redefined

Chorus

And it hit like a crash

Everything came down fast

Three years gone in a line

“Not you, it’s me” this time

No face, no voice, no goodbye

Just a text in the night

And I’m driving through the dark

With a breaking heart

Post-Chorus

mm… crash…

just like that…

yeah… crash…

Verse 2

“Don’t feel it anymore”

Read it once, then once more

“It's not you, it's me” you say

Like that makes it fade away

I hit the gas without a thought

Trying to reach you, but I’m not

Ready for the truth I know

Still I needed you to show

Pulled up fast, I couldn’t wait

Knocking hard at your front gate

At least say it to my face

Not through a screen you chose to place

Pre-Chorus

All the time we built in years

Gone in seconds, lost in here

I gave you everything I had

And now it’s just… that

Chorus

And it hit like a crash

Everything came down fast

Three years gone in a line

“Not you, it’s me” this time

No face, no voice, no goodbye

Just a text in the night

And I’m driving through the dark

With a breaking heart

Bridge

I left my dreams to fall in line

Put my future on the side

Worked myself until I broke

Just to keep you close

Was it ever really seen

All the effort in between?

All the nights I stayed awake

Just to make your path feel safe

Now it’s gone… no warning sign

No real ending, no defined line

Just a message in the dark

That tore everything apart

Final Chorus

And it hit like a crash

No slowing down, no past

Just a moment that erased

Every memory we made

No “we” left to hold onto

No more me and you

Just a silence I can’t fight

In the middle of the night

Outro

mm… yeah

1AM…

engine off…

and everything’s changed…
