Hex Appeal

Verse 1 They said your name in whispers Like a prayer they couldn’t say Every tavern had a story About the kingdoms you laid waste They warned me not to seek you Told me I’d be burned alive But I’ve always had a weakness For the things I can’t survive ⸻ Pre-Chorus One step closer Smoke in the air Gold on the floor Fire in your stare I should be running I should be gone Instead I’m wondering If you’d sing along ⸻ Chorus You’ve got that hex appeal Got me reaching for the flame Every warning bell is ringing Still I’m asking for your name Everybody says you’re danger Everybody says you’re doom But I’d rather dance with dragons Than be safe across the room You’ve got that hex appeal ⸻ Verse 2 Claws on stone and molten laughter Ancient eyes that see right through Like you already know the ending And you’re curious what I’ll do Maybe I’m completely reckless Maybe wisdom left the chat But if this is how I perish I’m surprisingly okay with that ⸻ Pre-Chorus 2 Closer now The heat’s unreal Funny how You almost feel… Like someone lonely Under all that gold Something immortal Getting tired of growing old ⸻ Chorus You’ve got that hex appeal Got me reaching for the flame Every warning bell is ringing Still I’m asking for your name Everybody says you’re danger Everybody says you’re doom But I’d rather dance with dragons Than be safe across the room ⸻ Bridge (Rowan) Go ahead Bare your teeth Show me why the heroes leave (Eva) Go ahead Spread your wings Tell me all your terrible things (Together) Maybe I’m a fool Maybe that’s the deal But legends never started By choosing what was safe or real ⸻ Final Chorus You’ve got that hex appeal Got me caught inside your spell If this ends in glorious disaster Well, at least it’ll make one hell— Of a story worth remembering A song they’ll never kill Everybody fears the dragon But I think I love her still You’ve got that hex appeal…
