Well, I was movin' at the speed of sound
Head spinnin', couldn't find my way around, and
Didn't know that I was goin' down, yeah, yeah
Where I been; well, it's all a blur
What I was lookin' for I'm not sure
Too late and didn't see it coming, yeah, yeah

Then I crashed into you
And I went up in flames
Could've been the death of me
But then you breathed your breath in me
Then I crashed into you
Like a runaway train
You will consume me
But I can't walk away

Somehow I couldn't stop myself
I just wanted to know how it felt
Too strong, I couldn't hold on, yeah, yeah
Now I'm just tryin' to make some sense
Out of how and why this happened
Where we're headed
There's just no knowin', yeah, yeah

And then I crashed into you
And I went up in flames
Could've been the death of me
But then you breathed your breath in me
Then I crashed into you
Like a runaway train
You will consume me
But I can't walk away

Your face, your eyes
Are burnt into me
You save me, you gave me
Just what I need
Oh, just what I need

And then I crashed into you
And I went up in flames
Could've been the death of me
But then you breathed your breath in me
Then I crashed into you
Like a runaway train
You will consume me
But I can't walk away

Then I crashed into you
And then I crashed into you
And then I crashed into you
And then I crashed into you
Then I crashed into you
Like a runaway train
You will consume me
But I can't walk away
