COOL Songtext
von Crawlers

You held my hair back
When I made myself sick
Said I looked good
Now I can′t quit
It's all performance
The nonstop charisma
Take the edge off
Have another tequila

There′s no smoke
Without any fire
To be a part of conversations
Like a real live wire
Spread the word
Then heat it up like Arizona
Empty fuel lighters
While I'm drinking zero cola


I'll break myself in two
To be good enough for you
I′m losing faith in myself
Now there is nothing else to lose
I keep on pretending
To just get through
I′m scared I'm gonna lose it all

Maybe I′ll play it cool
Pretend I'm not overthinking
Up my medication, then not change what I′m drinking
Cool
Not lose faith in religion
The world is getting hotter least summers in remission
Cool

All of my foundation is falling
Potential of my youth spent in dive bars
I'm calling
Cool
Is it cool?
Play it
Cool


Have I felt alive
Since 2016?
Playing into their hands to keep myself clean?
My inhabitable mind
And then I look outside
Seems I escaped a fire to still be burned alive

And I know that I say it all the time
I′m a bystander to my own demise
But there can't be a fire without fuel
What I do to just play

Cool
Pretend I'm not overthinking
Up my medication, then not change what I′m drinking
Cool
Not lose faith in religion
The world is getting hotter least summers in remission
Cool

All of my foundation is falling
Potential of my youth spent in dive bars
I′m calling
Cool
Is it cool?
Play it
Cool

Is it cool?
Play it
Cool
Play it
Cool

And I'm trying to entertain it
For the sake of staying alive
A facade of composure, while we grow misaligned?
The endless consumption, while we′re casually cruel
The beautiful struggle of
Tryna play it

Cool
Pretend I'm not overthinking
Up my medication, and not change what I′m drinking
Cool
That I've lost faith in religion
The world is fucking burning, and you think I′m gonna play it

Cool?
My mind is still racing
Scared of honesty, and I'm scared of not faking
Cool
My life is ever-changing
I had it all worked out now, I leave how I came in?
Cool

I still wanna get skinny
Been like this since ten
Can you even blame me?
Cool
Lucky to be existential
Tired of playing it cool as a way for survival
Cool

Playing it cool
Playing it cool
Playing it cool
Playing it cool
Playing it cool
Playing it cool
Playing it cool
Playing it cool
