KESMAR states that he originally wrote ‘Crushing’ in March of 2017, but since having changed his style (from acoustic to more ‘disco’) he felt it needed re-working. Hearing a keyboard backing by co-writer Tim Ayre “helped the track find it’s base”, before being added to by the main “Analog Juno Pad”...
Verse One:
You always tell me
What I need to feel
It's like we don't see eye to eye and never will
I can feel it burning
Through these walls
The smoke is rising till we cannot breathe at all
Pre-Chorus:
Let's go back to another time
When we can talk all night
Our movements can only be
Seen by distant light
And it's only you and me
But I feel so far away
Come out and say it
Do you need to be alone now?
Chorus:
Oh
It is crushing
Because the way I feel about you came to nothing
And I need to know
If there's something that I'm missing
Speak to me and I will listen
I need to know
Bridge:
It is crushing
It is crushing
Verse 2:
There is no reason
To hold it in
Let me know just where we end and I begin
Time goes on and on
We still stay the same
Go and say it
Do you need to be alone now?
Chorus:
Oh
It is crushing
Because the way I feel about you came to nothing
And I need to know
If there's something that I'm missing
Speak to me and I will listen
I need to know
Oh
It is crushing
Because the way I feel about you came to nothing
And I need to know
If there's something that I'm missing
Speak to me and I will listen
I need to know
Pre-Chorus:
Let's go back to another time
When we can talk all night
Our movements can only be
Seen by distant light
And it's only you and me
But I feel so far away
Come out and say it
Do you need to be alone now?
Chorus:
Oh
It is crushing
Because the way I feel about you came to nothing
And I need to know
If there's something that I'm missing
Speak to me and I will listen
I need to know
Oh
It is crushing
Because the way I feel about you came to nothing
And I need to know
If there's something that I'm missing
Speak to me and I will listen
I need to know
