[Verse 1]
Talking to you
Gives me butterflies, wanna text you all the time
I can't help that I feel like this
Talking to you
Staying up all night, yeah, he knows something ain't right
But it's innocent 'til we kiss
[Pre-Chorus]
Feeling dangerous when you're callin' me
Something 'bout the secrecy of us
Then it hits me like reality
I can't lose him to a fantasy
It ain't heartbreak, but it still hurts enough
[Chorus]
Oh, baby, I'm crushed (Crush)
It will never be us
That's why they call it a crush (Crush)
It will never be love
(Crush)
[Verse 2]
It's been a while since I hit you back
Me and him, we had a chat
And I think it's best I don't reply
'Cause it has been a while
But I can't let you go
And I should've let you know
But I'm typing it right now
[Pre-Chorus]
Got me wondering if it's destiny
Or I just being messy?
All I know is I'm loving the rush
Then it hits me like reality
I can't lose him to a fantasy
It ain't heartbreak, but it still hurts enough
[Chorus]
Oh, baby, I'm crushed (Crush)
It will never be us
That's why they call it a crush (Crush)
It will never be love
(Crush)
[Bridge]
What's the need for destruction? (Destruction)
This might get ugly , you will ruin my life
Tell me, why do I crave your attention?
I got someone at home who treats me right (I got someone who)
It's only just a—
(Just a crush) Crush
(Just a crush) Crush
(Just a crush) Crush
Just a crush, crush, crush
(Just a crush) Crush
(Just a crush) Crush
(Crush, crush, crush, crush)
[Chorus]
Oh, baby, I'm crushed (Crush)
It will never be us (Ooh-oh)
That's why they call it a crush (Just a crush; Crush)
It will never be love (Be love)
(No-no-no-no, no-no-no-no)
Oh, baby, I'm crushed (Ooh-ah)
(No-no-no, no-no-no)
That's why they call it a crush
It will never be love
(Crush)
Possible reference to the lead single from their second album “Ruin My Life”.
Being in the grey zone of morality means navigating ambiguous ethical situations that cannot be clearly categorized as purely “right” or “wrong”. It applies when rules blur, intentions are mixed, or when choosing the lesser of two evils.
Possibly a reference to an another song on the album, “Pretty Ugly”.
