temptation

Verse 1 I used to chase temptation Like tequila and lime Burn goin’ down smooth Leave me blurry by the night Neon lights like halos Over barroom confessions Call it young and restless Call it bad direction Every “just one more” Turned into sunrise Every wrong decision Came dressed up in good vibes I was runnin’ from silence Runnin’ from truth Didn’t wanna sit alone With the version of me I knew Pre-Chorus Temporary highs Got permanent cost I kept callin’ it freedom But I was just lost Chorus Yeah, I used to chase temptation Like tequila and lime Little salt on the wound Make it taste just fine Every shot feel like heaven Every morning feel like crime Yeah, I used to chase temptation Like tequila and lime Verse 2 Text I shouldn’t send Calls I shouldn’t make Hearts I didn’t mean to bend Just to fill a space Laughin’ too loud So nobody would see The quiet kind of lonely That was living in me I wore confidence heavy Like it covered my shame But mirrors don’t lie They just whisper your name And somewhere in the chaos Between thrill and regret I started gettin’ tired Of wakin’ up in debt Pre-Chorus Every thrill fades out Every buzz runs dry I was numbing the pain Not askin’ why Chorus Yeah, I used to chase temptation Like tequila and lime Burn first, think later Say I’m doin’ just fine But peace don’t come bottled And love ain’t that kind Yeah, I used to chase temptation Like tequila and lime Bridge (Stripped / Honest) Now I’m sittin’ with the silence Let it say what it says Let the ache turn to healing Instead of runnin’ again Maybe growth ain’t flashy Maybe it’s slow Maybe real strength Is sayin’ no Final Chorus (Lift) Yeah, I used to chase temptation Like tequila and lime Thought the rush was alive Thought the chaos was mine Now I’m choosin’ something steady Over sparks that just shine Yeah, I used to chase temptation… But I’m leavin’ that behind
