Andrew Ripp is a former alcoholic and has been sober for 8 years. In this song, he speaks about staying away from alcohol in the way of a woman who he knows is bad for him.
It’s a song about battling temptation. He stated:
Having abused it for so long I’ve had to completely relearn how to live wit...
[Verse 1]
All alone
Danger zone
Makes me think of you
It's been so long and I've been strong, but I'm missing you
If I'm going to stay alive, I gotta stop pretending
That you and I could ever just be friends
[Chorus]
Yeah we've been here before, and we both have our tricks
We both know this is wrong, but we just can't resist
So I pull you in close, and I watch you lean in for a kiss
Get away from my lips, yeah
[Verse 2]
You're so fire
Blur the lines
Demons still in me
Sexy lies make me feel alive, but they're killing me
So pour it on strong cause I can handle it
Ooh baby I deserve just a little sin
[Chorus]
Yeah we've been here before, and we both have our tricks
We both know this is wrong, but we just can't resist
So I pull you in close, and I watch you lean in for a kiss
Get away from my lips, yeah
[Bridge]
Get away and stay the hell away from me
I hate how much I love what you do to me
And now I know I gotta stop before you ruin me
Yeah
Ooh yeah
[Chorus]
Yeah we've been here before, and we both have our tricks
We both know this is wrong, but we just can't resist
So I pull you in close, and I watch you lean in for a kiss
Get away from my lips, yeah
