about

January 28th, 2024 is my 8 month anniversary of sobriety. "crash and burn" is a reflection of adjustment to major changes in life, where I found myself longing for my historic days of self sabotage via substance abuse. Once you're out of the cycle of binge drinking and going on benders, it's easy to romanticize the simplicity of numbing out your feelings and emotions in the name of a good time with friends. It almost seems like the simpler life. This song is a love letter, a breakup letter, a eulogy, and a proclamation: my history will forever be a part of me, and it's a part of me I strive to never see again.

lyrics

Better this is left unsaid I
Need it like I do a hole in the head

Pull me out of the danger zone
I’m 30 minutes and 7 months from home

Take me there, I’m not scared anymore
it can’t be as bad as I’ve heard before

And I, want to crash and burn
cause I miss the way it hurts

What goes up then must come down
Stranded on the outside of town

Sunrise treks to my front door
Here again but really, what is it for?

And I want to crash and burn
Cause I miss the way it hurts

Don’t threaten me with a good time
Because that has never cost me a dime
I drank for free and it took from me
Naivity, curiosity

Of what lies behind closed doors
Plates and bodies on the floor
Camaraderie of inebriates
I miss my fucking innocence

And I want to crash and burn
Cause I miss the way it hurts
