Crave the Fall by Sabrina Thorne [Verse 1] I’ve been good, I’ve been dull Held my breath till my heartbeat stalled Wrote my name in a line of salt But no one crossed it, no one called [Pre-Chorus] I lit the match, but I kept it clean Kissed the blade, but it didn’t bleed Told myself I’d stay serene But silence started choking me [Chorus] So give me something sharp, something wrong A little taste where I don’t belong I don’t need love—I need the quake Something real enough to shake Crave the break, crave the sting Pull the wire, let it sing If I can’t feel, then let it burn Let the stillness twist and turn [Verse 2] Woke up bored with my own skin Dreamed of fire just to feel again I made peace with coming undone So bring the dark—I’ll make it fun [Bridge] Whisper soft, I’ll cut you clean You’ll thank me once I end this dream [Final Chorus] Give me chaos, give me ache I’ll dance inside the mess I make No more quiet, no more grace Let me meet you face to face Crave the break, crave the fall Crave the echo down the hall I’ve been good—but not tonight Now I’m everything you fight

This song was inspired by the upcoming novel Deadlines by author K. La Don Smith.
