[Verse 1] Come closer, Blade Dancer I know that blade You wear the city on your sleeve Zaun in your wake You move like a rumor Flip through the smoke A grin full of trouble And a hand full of hope Jinx in your bloodline Vi in your bones Everybody said you’d break But you came back whole [Pre-Chorus] I see the dark in you I see it breathe Still standing there Like you belong to me And that look in your eyes Says you know it too You’re not running from yourself I’m not running from you [Chorus] Blade Dancer, stay close I like that you don’t flinch Blade Dancer, stay close I want that reckless edge You fight dirty, you shine You burn through the night Blade Dancer, stay close You’re mine [Verse 2] You turn acrobatic All twisting steel Cartwheels over danger Making pain look real Little fire in your pocket A spark on your tongue Explosive little secrets And a smile when you’re done You cut with a promise You strike with a kiss Every broken little rule Feels perfect on your wrist [Pre-Chorus] I see the dark in you I see it breathe Still standing there Like you belong to me And that hunger in your hands It speaks my name You’re not afraid of what you are That is my favorite thing [Chorus] Blade Dancer, stay close I like that you don’t flinch Blade Dancer, stay close I want that reckless edge You fight dirty, you shine You burn through the night Blade Dancer, stay close You’re mine [Spoken] They brought me a swordsman from Zaun All sharp angles and bad ideas Fire on his coat Blood on his smile And he still stood there I watched the shadow in him Lift its head I watched him welcome it Like an old friend [Bridge] If they call you trouble Let them call it out I only want the version That won’t back down If the whole world wants to break you Let it line up and try I adore the way you linger On the edge of the knife [Final Chorus] Blade Dancer, stay close I like that you don’t flinch Blade Dancer, stay close I want that reckless edge You fight dirty, you shine You burn through the night Blade Dancer, stay close You’re mine Blade Dancer, stay close I saw you in the dark Blade Dancer, stay close I want your battle scars
