Never Your First Choice
by Crystal Crush

Share link

Step into the heartbreak of Crystal Crush’s debut album, Never Your First Choice. Blending sharp pop-punk hooks with raw, diary-level honesty, it captures the ache of almost-love, late-night doubt, and wanting to be chosen. It’s intimate, melodic, and built for the moments that hurt quietly but stay forever.

Lyrics

1. Don’t Slow Down

Your perfume still stuck in the passenger seat
Sweat on your neck, summer sticking to me
Windows fogged up, radio low
We’re saying things we’ll never own

You look at me like you already know
This isn’t love, but we won’t say no

Pull me closer, don’t slow down
We don’t need words, just right now
Hold me tight like you don’t care
Like we’re not gonna feel this tomorrow, yeah
Pull me closer, don’t slow down
Break my heart, but not right now

Bare feet dancing on the kitchen tile
Cheap wine buzz and a crooked smile
You say my name like it’s dangerous
Like you know this thing will ruin us

We both know how this ends
But we keep leaning in

Pull me closer, don’t slow down
We don’t need words, just right now
Hold me tight like you don’t care
Like we’re not gonna feel this tomorrow, yeah
Pull me closer, don’t slow down
Break my heart, but not right now

If this fades when the sun comes up
Let it hurt, I don’t need love
Just stay here in this moment
Before we pretend it was nothing

Pull me closer, don’t slow down
We don’t need words, just right now
Hold me tight like you don’t care
Like we’re not gonna feel this tomorrow, yeah
Pull me closer, don’t slow down
Break my heart, but not right now

Pull me closer, don’t slow down
We don’t need words, just right now
Hold me tight like you don’t care
Like we’re not gonna feel this tomorrow, yeah
Pull me closer, don’t slow down
Break my heart, but not right now

2. Touch Me, Touch Me Slow

You say my name like it’s harmless
Like it won’t stay when you leave
Your hands say more than your mouth does
You get close just to breathe

You don’t promise, you don’t pretend
But you pull me in again

If you’re gonna touch me, touch me slow
Like you don’t wanna let me go
Don’t say love, just say tonight
Say my name like it feels right
If you’re gonna break me, break me true
Leave a mark I’ll always choose
If you’re gonna want me, want me now
I’m your crystal, don’t drop me down

You leave your truth in the doorway
Pick it up when you’re gone
You taste like heat and bad timing
Like a song that goes on

You don’t stay, but you don’t leave
You’re everything you don’t mean

If you’re gonna touch me, touch me slow
Like you don’t wanna let me go
Don’t say love, just say tonight
Say my name like it feels right
If you’re gonna break me, break me true
Leave a mark I’ll always choose
If you’re gonna want me, want me now
I’m your crystal, don’t drop me down

I don’t need forever from you
I just need you honest
If this ends when the lights come up
Let it end with my heart on it

If you’re gonna touch me, touch me slow
Like you don’t wanna let me go
Don’t say love, just say tonight
Say my name like it feels right
If you’re gonna break me, break me true
Leave a mark I’ll always choose
If you’re gonna want me, want me now
I’m your crystal, don’t drop me down

If you’re gonna touch me, touch me slow
Like you don’t wanna let me go
Don’t say love, just say tonight
Say my name like it feels right
If you’re gonna break me, break me true
Leave a mark I’ll always choose
If you’re gonna want me, want me now
I’m your crystal, don’t drop me down

3. You’re The One I Almost Had

You left your heat in my passenger seat
Like you planned to stay, like you planned to leave
Red lights blur when I say your name
Every slow song still sounds the same

You knew exactly when to pull away
Right when I wanted you to stay

You’re the one I almost had
The taste of you still drives me mad
Skin-to-skin then gone too fast
Every touch still hits like glass
You’re the one that got away
Still undressed in my brain
You’re the one I almost had
And I want you just that bad

You move like trouble in a midnight room
Soft mouth lying ’bout what we’ll do
You don’t promise, you don’t lie
You just look at me like you might

You lean in close, then pull back slow
Like you know what you’re doing

You’re the one I almost had
The taste of you still drives me mad
Skin-to-skin then gone too fast
Every touch still hits like glass
You’re the one that got away
Still undressed in my brain
You’re the one I almost had
And I want you just that bad

If wanting you is crossing lines
I’ve been crossing them every night
I don’t need you to stay or swear
I just need you to still care

You’re the one I almost had
The taste of you still drives me mad
Skin-to-skin then gone too fast
Every touch still hits like glass
You’re the one that got away
Still undressed in my brain
You’re the one I almost had
And I want you just that bad

You’re the one I almost had
The taste of you still drives me mad
Skin-to-skin then gone too fast
Every touch still hits like glass
You’re the one that got away
Still undressed in my brain
You’re the one I almost had
And I still want you that bad

4. You Were The Most Beautiful Girl

You walked in like the room was waiting
Like every breath knew your name
The kind of beauty that makes you quiet
Afraid to look straight at it

You smiled once and I was already gone
Some things don’t need long

You were the most beautiful girl I’d ever seen
Not just your face, but the way you’d breathe
The way you laughed like you didn’t know
You were everything I’d never hold
You were the most beautiful girl to me
And loving you was the saddest thing

You talked about dreams like they were fragile
Like you’d already been burned
I memorized the way you listened
Like every word had weight

I knew right then I’d lose this fight
Some loves don’t survive the light

You were the most beautiful girl I’d ever seen
Not just your face, but the way you’d breathe
The way you laughed like you didn’t know
You were everything I’d never hold
You were the most beautiful girl to me
And loving you was the saddest thing

I don’t blame you for walking away
I blame my heart for staying
Some people are meant to be felt
Not kept

You were the most beautiful girl I’d ever seen
Every flaw made you more real to me
I’d watch you leave a thousand times
Just to say you were once mine
You were the most beautiful girl to me
And loving you was the saddest thing

You were the most beautiful girl I’d ever seen
And I still see you in everything
If loving you was all I’d get
I’d choose the hurt, I’d choose it again
You were the most beautiful girl to me
And loving you was the saddest thing

5. If You’re Gonna Stay Then Stay

I don’t fall for the loud ones
I fall for the calm
The ones who don’t rush
The ones who stay gone
You walked in like you knew me
Didn’t try too hard
Just stood there smiling
Like you already won my heart

You don’t chase
You wait
That’s what made me break

If you’re gonna stay then stay
If you’re gonna leave then go
I don’t do half love anymore
I already know
If you’re gonna want me now
Don’t want me when I’m gone
If you’re here then be all in
Or don’t be at all

I’ve been the girl they almost chose
When they were bored or lonely
I’ve learned the difference real quick
Between wanting me and knowing me
You don’t talk just to hear yourself
You listen when I speak
That’s dangerous
That’s the kind of thing
That ruins me

I don’t need
Convincing
I just need honesty

If you’re gonna stay then stay
If you’re gonna leave then go
I don’t do half love anymore
I already know
If you’re gonna want me now
Don’t want me when I’m gone
If you’re here then be all in
Or don’t be at all

I’m not scared of being alone
I’m scared of being almost
I won’t beg you to choose me
That’s not how this goes
If you feel it say it
If you don’t be kind
I’ve learned how to walk away
And still be fine

If you’re gonna stay then stay
If you’re gonna leave then go
I don’t do half love anymore
I already know
If you’re gonna want me now
Don’t want me when I’m gone
If you’re here then be all in
Or don’t be at all

If you’re gonna stay then stay
If you’re gonna leave then go
I don’t do half love anymore
I already know
If you’re gonna want me now
Don’t want me when I’m gone
If you’re here then be all in
Or don’t be at all

6. Say You Want Me

You don’t text first
You don’t have to
Everyone’s already looking at you
I say something dumb
You smile slow
Like you knew I’d fold
You move like you’re bored of the room
Like nothing here can touch you
I should walk away
But I don’t
I never do

You don’t promise
You don’t lie
You just get close
Then make me decide

Say you want me
Say it now
Say it once
Then shut it down
Don’t play nice
Don’t stick around
If you’re gonna hurt me
Make it count
Say you want me
Say it loud
Say it like you mean it right now
If this ends
Let it be true
Don’t save me
Just choose

Your hand on mine
Like it’s nothing
Like you don’t know what you’re doing
Every warning in my head
Goes quiet when you lean in
You don’t chase
You attract
You don’t look back
You don’t ask
I fall faster than I should
Every time
Just like that

You don’t stay
You don’t explain
You just pull me in
Then walk away

Say you want me
Say it now
Say it once
Then shut it down
Don’t play nice
Don’t stick around
If you’re gonna hurt me
Make it count
Say you want me
Say it loud
Say it like you mean it right now
If this ends
Let it be true
Don’t save me
Just choose

I don’t need forever
I need honesty
I don’t need promises
Just don’t lie to me
If I’m just a moment
Say it clean
I’d rather know
Than believe

Say you want me
Say it now
Say it once
Then shut it down
Don’t play nice
Don’t stick around
If you’re gonna hurt me
Make it count
Say you want me
Say it loud
Say it like you mean it right now
If this ends
Let it be true
Don’t save me
Just choose

Say you want me
Or let me go
Don’t keep me guessing
I already know
If I’m just a night
I’ll see it through
Don’t save me
Just choose

7. You Got Me

You smile like you know something
I don’t but I feel it too
Every time you say my name
It lands a little too true
I try to play it cool
Like I’ve been here before
But my heart gives me away
Every time you walk through the door

I don’t know when it happened
I just know it did

You got me you got me
Right where I stand
You got me you got me
Shaking my plans
I said I wouldn’t fall
I didn’t stand a chance
You got me you got me
You got me bad

We talk like it’s nothing serious
Like we’re not dancing on fire
Every little touch you make
Pulls me in a little higher
I hear my friends say slow it down
But they don’t feel what I do
I was doing just fine alone
Till I ran into you

I saw the warning signs
I stayed

You got me you got me
Right where I stand
You got me you got me
Shaking my plans
I said I wouldn’t fall
I didn’t stand a chance
You got me you got me
You got me bad

Maybe I’m losing control
Maybe I don’t want to fight it
If this is how it goes
Then I’m fine being caught in it
I won’t pretend I’m stronger
Than the pull I feel
If this is reckless love
At least it’s real

You got me you got me
Right where I stand
You got me you got me
Shaking my plans
I said I wouldn’t fall
I didn’t stand a chance
You got me you got me
You got me bad

You got me you got me
Right where I stand
You got me you got me
Letting go of my plans
I said I wouldn’t fall
But I don’t want to pretend
You got me you got me
All in again

8. How Long Till You Love Me

You say my name like it’s harmless
Like it doesn’t hit me at all
You talk about your someday
Like I’m not here when you call
I laugh it off like I’m steady
Like I don’t feel the wait
But every second I’m with you
Feels a little too late

I don’t need perfect
I just need truth

How long how long till you love me
How long till you say my name
How long till I stop pretending
I don’t feel this way
How long how long till you love me
How long till you’re sure it’s me
How long till I’m not just waiting
For what we could be

You lean in close then pull back
Like you’re scared of the fall
You say you don’t want to rush it
But you don’t move at all
I’m tired of being patient
Tired of reading signs
I don’t wanna be your almost
At the end of the line

Say it out loud
Or let me go

How long how long till you love me
How long till you say my name
How long till I stop pretending
I don’t feel this way
How long how long till you love me
How long till you’re sure it’s me
How long till I’m not just waiting
For what we could be

I don’t need forever promised
I just need something real
I can take a broken ending
I can’t take how this feels
If you’re never gonna choose me
Tell me straight tonight
I’d rather walk away hurting
Than stay here my whole life

How long how long till you love me
How long till you say my name
How long till I stop pretending
I don’t feel this way
How long how long till you love me
How long till you’re sure it’s me
How long till I’m not just waiting
For what we could be

How long how long till you love me
How long till you say my name
How long till I stop pretending
I don’t feel this way
How long how long till you love me
Or tell me it won’t be me
How long till I stop waiting
And let myself be free

9. Take Me Anywhere But Here

We packed too much into one car
Half dreams half clothes half plans
Laughing at the gas station
Like we finally had a chance
Radio too loud windows down
Maps we’ll never use
We said if we don’t leave right now
We’ll turn into excuses

I don’t wanna stay
I wanna feel alive

Take me anywhere but here
I don’t care where we land
If I’m with you and the road ahead
That’s all I understand
We don’t need to know the ending
We just need tonight
Take me anywhere but here
Let’s disappear

Every town starts feeling smaller
When you’re standing still
I don’t wanna wake up someday
Wondering what I missed
You said you’re scared of messing up
I said so am I
But staying scared forever
Feels like wasting time

If this is reckless
I’m in

Take me anywhere but here
I don’t care where we land
If I’m with you and the road ahead
That’s all I understand
We don’t need to know the ending
We just need tonight
Take me anywhere but here
Let’s disappear

Maybe we’ll crash and burn
Maybe we’ll be okay
But I’d rather try and fail
Than never leave this place
I don’t wanna play it safe
I wanna feel something real
Even if it scares me
At least I’ll know how it feels

Take me anywhere but here
I don’t care where we land
If I’m with you and the road ahead
That’s all I understand
We don’t need to know the ending
We just need tonight
Take me anywhere but here
Let’s disappear

Take me anywhere but here
I don’t care where we land
If I’m with you and the road ahead
I’ll take that chance
We don’t need to know the ending
We just need tonight
Take me anywhere but here
Let’s disappear

10. I Was Your Everything

I stayed late
You stayed unsure
I gave more
You weren’t sure
I knew you
Inside out
You knew me
When it counted

I gave you
Everything

I was your everything
Your late-night call
Your safety net
Your after all
I was your everything
I held you close
But I was never
Your first choice

I showed up
You stood still
I bent myself
To fit your will
I fought hard
You felt fine
I crossed lines
You drew mine

I see it
Now

I was your everything
Your late-night call
Your safety net
Your after all
I was your everything
I held you close
But I was never
Your first choice

I won’t fade
To feel enough
I won’t stay
Second love
I gave you me
That was real
You lost the one
Who made you feel

I was your everything
Your late-night call
Your safety net
Your after all
I was your everything
I held you close
But I was never
Your first choice

I was your everything
I gave it all
I held you up
I took the fall
I was your everything
I know my worth
I was your everything
You chose me last
