Digital Crush
After Midnight Project Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Youre my artificial escape
THe burning inside when I cant sleep
An addiction that I know way to well
My dirty little secret that Ill never tell
Ill never Ever tell

Ill be up for hours tonight
I got a digital crush and I cant give it up
but I dont care
Ill sit for hours tonight with my digital crush
Shes my virtual drug

Ive got her red lipstick smeared across the fuzzy screen
I like it hot and dirty rather than cold and clean
I loke it hott and dirty rather than cold an dclean
thats what she said to me
Well I just want you to know
This is just a phase dont ever change
HEY I would rather touch you lips then touch these keys
you come first last and always
last and always




(repeat Chorus)
Ill pay the toll for one hour all alone in your world
