Soft Crash

[Verse 1] Lipstick stain on a paper cup Last call glow on the tabletop You trace stars in the water rings Ask if any of them look like us Boot prints chalked in the hallway dust Old show flyers peeling from the door Jukebox skips on the sweetest part Like it knows what we’re headed for [Chorus] It’s a soft crash on Orchard Street Slow motion in a busted seat (oh) You’re laughing like you don’t bleed While the whole room shakes beneath our feet Soft crash and I hear you say “Let the wreck keep the world away” If we’re going down in a cheap red heat I wanna fall with you on Orchard Street [Verse 2] Leather jacket on a velvet chair You light a match off a silver ring Ashtray halo over your head Saint of trouble, patron of everything Neon buzz in the backroom air You write your number on my wrist Ink runs wild in a spilled‑drink blur Guess forever looks a lot like this [Chorus] It’s a soft crash on Orchard Street Slow motion in a busted seat (hey) You’re laughing like you don’t bleed While the whole room shakes beneath our feet Soft crash and I hear you say “Let the wreck keep the world away” If we’re going down in a cheap red heat I wanna fall with you on Orchard Street [Bridge] [Band shouts - Half‑time] You say “So what if we burn out?” I say “So what if we fade out?” We both know we’re the same doubt Spinning in the same loud night (woah) [Whispered Airy] Write our names in the cigarette smoke Let it rise, let it blur, let it choke If this is all we ever keep Meet me where the pavement dreams [Chorus] It’s a soft crash on Orchard Street Slow motion in a busted seat You’re laughing like you don’t bleed While the whole world breaks beneath our feet Soft crash And I hear you say “Let the wreck keep the world away” If we disappear in a cheap red heat I’ll still be haunting you on Orchard Street
