Critical Lyrics

[Verse 1]
There's a storm coming up
And I gotta prepare myself
'Cause this feeling's getting stronger everyday
Something's creeping inside
Everything is about to change
Gotta face the fact that I can't walk away


[Chorus]
This is critical
I'm feeling helpless
So hysterical, this can't be healthy
I can't eat or sleep when you're not with me
Baby, you're the air I breathe
This is critical, yeah
So stuck on you

[Verse 2]
Used to have everything figured out
But it's different now
When you came, you saw
You conquered my heart
It's your laugh and your smile
Wanna stay for a little while
I don't wanna go, I just want you in my arms
[Chorus]
This is critical
I'm feeling helpless
So hysterical, this can't be healthy
I can't eat or sleep when you're not with me
Baby, you're the air I breathe
This is critical, yeah
So stuck on you

[Bridge]
Used to run and hide
Used to bend our love
But I can't escape this time
Oh no

[Chorus]
This is critical
I'm feeling helpless
So hysterical, this can't be healthy
I can't eat or sleep when you're not with me
Baby, you're the air I breathe
This is critical, yeah

[Outro]
Baby, it's so critical (Critical)
It's so critical (Critical), yeah
I don't like it
It's so critical (Critical)
It's so critical (Critical), yeah
So stuck on you

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
