Linger On Lyrics by Joey Burbach

2021

[Chorus: Joey Burbs]
I've been movin' on 'cause I know it was wrong but
Something keeps on pullin' me back
Devil on my doorstep, ask if I need more, yeah
Tell him what was left in the past
All these lies I tell my mind
Just to keep a spark alive (Just to keep a spark alive)
Even though the moment's gone, I let it linger on
[Verse 1: Joey Burbs]
How did feelin' your body turn into feelings that probably
Aren't gonna film me 'til I'm in a new scene? (New scene)
You're the white picket fence that I see in all of my dreams
But now that gates are closing quickly on me
She said we got problems but I know that we can make it work
You can dress me up and wear me out just like your favorite shirt
Everyone around us thinks the sun is settin' in the east
But I just watched her eyes with my own eyes and see it differently
Darling, tell me, when do these emotions fade?
Darling, tell me, are they meant to always stay?
[Chorus: Joey Burbs]
I've been movin' on 'cause I know it was wrong but
Something keeps on pullin' me back
Devil on my doorstep, ask if I need more, yeah
Tell him what was left in the past
All these lies I tell my mind
Just to keep a spark alive (Just to keep a spark alive)
Even though the moment's gone, I let it linger on
[Post-Chorus: Joey Burbs]
Linger on, mmm
Linger on, mmm
[Verse 2: Abstract]
You play your love like casinos
I need that fix like a needle
Even though it's toxic, I'm addicted to the pain
You got this way with the way that you bring me down to my lowest
And give me somethin' just to keep me in your game
I play my cards, you own the house
No clock, no doors, I can't get out
It's like a weekend out in Vegas turned to prison, I found out
That you addicted to the friction
You create the works of fiction
Keepin' fools like me addicted
Sickness in your heart, no doubt
But I gotta go take control of what I tend to value
Love myself enough to live without you
Lingered on as long as I could take it
Broke the spell, I'm breakin' out your Matrix
Young, well-off, and I'm famous
Quick way up how they paint us
What's the real motive? It get dangerous
Messin' with the sexy, young, and brainless
Damn
[Chorus: Joey Burbs]
I've been movin' on 'cause I know it was wrong but
Something keeps on pullin' me back
Devil on my doorstep, ask if I need more, yeah
Tell him what was left in the past
All these lies I tell my mind
Just to keep a spark alive (Just to keep a spark alive)
Even though the moment's gone, I let it linger on
[Post-Chorus: Joey Burbs]
Linger on, mmm
Linger on, mmm
