Holy Water

Perfect chemistry. Zero survival rate.

That’s the problem.

You step out the Uber looking unapproved

Designer shades in a midnight room

Got a reputation that you can’t outrun

But I’m staring down the barrel of the gun

Your ex still stalk my stories

Your friends all act like cops

But you still send me drunk voice notes

At like 3:13 on the dot

You say my name like a casualty

A flashing light at a dead end street

I'm chasing the rush of the tragedy

'Cause I'd rather bleed than find some peace

You got coke nail confidence

And hotel-lobby eyes

Everybody thinks you’re heaven

Till the holy water dries

I ghost you for days, you go off the map

I bait the timeline, you step in the trap

We swear to the city that we’re finally done

Then spark right back up dangerous as fuck

You’re all false starts and low-lit tension

Whole lotta chaos in high definition

Burn through my chest like straight Fireball

A beautiful disaster at the last call

Hands on my throat in the backseat heat

Red lipstick stain on the leather seats

Everybody says you’re bad for me

That’s what makes you hard to leave

Hard to leave

Hard to leave

I see the angles you play around

Pulling the strings from the underground

You post a picture just to set the bait

Knowing damn well that I'm staying awake

We only exist with a hotel key

A top-floor secret that nobody sees

They tell you I’m poison, a fatal crash

But the danger is what pulls you right back

Last night you screamed we were dead and through

Then swiped your card for the high city view

That’s the type of madness we're addicted to

Building it up just to burn it down

I should run but it's in my blood

Got the same pull as a heavy drug

Every bad decision is adding up

To the price I pay for the damage we love

You’re the kind of high

That makes people miss flights

Miss calls

Miss warning signs

And I keep letting you back in

Like my memory got a death wish

You’re an open throttle with the brake lines cut

We say that we’re finished, then push our luck

Burn through my chest like straight Fireball

A beautiful disaster at the last call

Blue lights flash through the windshield rain

You’re in my lap while I switch them lanes

If loving you’s gonna fuck me up

At least make it unforgettable

You always do.
