🎵 Title: “Skirts of Fire” [raw emotional energy sung with fire and passion] [Verse 1] We circle like smoke around a no-fire zone You laugh through your teeth and I call it home We trace old steps in brand new shoes You say it’s nothing — I bruise [Verse 2] You lean like a question I’m scared to ask Wrapped in ribbons and red-flag masks I speak in sparks, you don’t reply Still I burn just fine [Chorus] The way we do this dance — it’s dangerous Tapping toes on the edge of faithless We flirt in code, skirt the fuse I lose me every time I choose My heart’s got hands but none for holding It walks straight in, wide-eyed and open [Verse 3] You're good with words, but not the weight Of promises said past their sell-by date You move like maybe, I follow like sure Both of us haunted, but yours is pure [Chorus] The way we do this dance — it's reckless You blink and I forget I'm defenseless We breathe too close to catch what's true I split my soul just reaching you My heart’s got maps with missing pieces It leads me in where logic ceases [Bridge] We’re two bad ideas with rhythm A myth we keep relivin’ A match and a bottle in love with the flame Then blame the fire when it won’t stay tame [Final Chorus] The way we do this dance — it’s dangerous We write soft lines, then tear the pages You pull away just when it fits And I chase ghosts I can’t resist My heart — too loud, too brave, too raw Still steps in like it never saw
