[Verse 1]
Rust on the Ford
Dust on my boots
Same small town
Same old excuse
Neon is buzzing in the rearview glass
Your name on my tongue
Like a shot I can’t pass
I said I’d quit you
But I circle right back
[Chorus]
So I tip it on back
To the pain you poured
Let the burn run slow
Till I feel you more
Raise that memory
Like a glass to my lips
If I’m fallin’ apart
I’m fallin’ to this
Yeah
Every time my heart gets cracked
I tip it on back
[Verse 2]
Barstool confession
Two seats from the door
Laughing too loud
So I don’t talk anymore
Your song comes on
And the room leans left
I’m prayin’ for silence
I’m bracing for impact
I know what’s coming
And I still let it crash
[Chorus]
So I tip it on back
To the pain you poured
Let the burn run slow
Till I feel you more
Raise that memory
Like a glass to my lips
If I’m fallin’ apart
I’m fallin’ to this
Yeah
Every time my heart gets cracked
I tip it on back
[Bridge]
Tell me why the hurt
Is the only thing that lasts
Why I chase the flame
Just to live in the ash
Friends say “let go”
But they don’t know that track
Once I taste your ghost
I can’t turn it back (hey)
[Chorus]
So I tip it on back
To the pain you poured
Let the burn run slow
Till I feel you more
Raise that memory
Like a glass to my lips
If I’m fallin’ apart
I’m fallin’ to this
Yeah
Every time my heart gets cracked
I tip it on back
Every time I swear I won’t look back
I tip it on back
