V6

**[INTRO — WHISPER]** You were made for the light… I was born in the dark. So why the hell do you feel like home? **[VERSE 1]** You got heaven in your eyes, I got blood upon my name, you believe there’s good in people, I was raised among the flames. You’re the morning after midnight, you’re the calm I never knew, and I know I should keep riding — but I can’t stay away from you. **[PRE-CHORUS]** I’m the danger at your door, you’re the light I shouldn’t touch. God knows I’m no good for you… but I want you way too much. **[CHORUS — HUGE]** ’Cause I’m a motherfuckin’ outlaw, you’re the good I’ll never be, you were born to chase the sunrise — I was born to fucking flee. I’m a motherfuckin’ outlaw, you’re the light inside my dark, and I know I shouldn’t love you — **but you put heaven in my heart.** **[VERSE 2]** Your hands were made for healing, mine were made to hold a gun, you still pray beneath the moonlight, I stopped praying long ago. But when you whisper that you love me, all my demons disappear, and for once I want tomorrow more than I have ever feared. **[BRIDGE — QUIET / INTIMATE]** Don’t follow me into the darkness. Don’t become the things I am. Stay exactly who you are, love — good and gentle to the end. And if the whole damn world comes hunting, I’ll make sure they never touch the only piece of heaven this outlaw ever loved. **[FINAL CHORUS — ORCHESTRA + CHOIR]** ’CAUSE I’M A MOTHERFUCKIN’ OUTLAW, AND YOU’RE EVERYTHING THAT’S GOOD! I SHOULD LEAVE YOU HERE FOREVER — God knows that I fucking should. But I’m a motherfuckin’ outlaw, and you’re the light inside my dark, so if loving you destroys me — **let me die with heaven in my heart.** **[OUTRO — WHISPER]** You are the light. I am the shadow. And somehow… you still chose me.
