Susan Indest, Caspar - Crash and Burn Lyrics

Those lazy summer days they seemed endless
The nights we spent in a manic, drunken haze
We'd stagger from house to house, from bar to bar
We'd crash on someone's couch or in your car

We'd wake up feeling queasy with a pounding in our heads
When the afternoon sunlight hit our eyes
Then the fire in our bellies and hunger in our hearts
Roared to life again and we roared into the night

We'd crash and we'd burn
We never learned
We felt invincible
We'd crash and we'd burn

I got tired of feeling sick and I slowed down
I found a steady job and took a wife
You said your burning spirit made you restless
You said you couldn't understand my life

You said you couldn't understand my reasons
You always felt an endless burning fire
Exactly what it was that you longed for
Remained hidden in the dark parts of your mind.

You'd crash and you'd burn
You never learned
You felt invincible
You'd crash and you'd burn

Another rowdy night you spent with strangers
Another rowdy crowd that you called friends
You snorted coke and downed shots of tequila
You were trying to quench that fire within

They say you drove like a bat out of Hell
Never even slowed down at the curve
They say your injuries killed you quickly
And you never felt the flames when they burned

You crashed and you burned
You never learned
What it was that you longed for
You crashed and you burned
