[Verse] Ashes whisper in the night My hands burn but hold you tight The world’s a stage of cruel decay But I’ll torch it all to keep you safe today [Prechorus] You don’t see the flames in my eyes You don’t hear the screams in my skies [Chorus] I’ll burn the world to keep you near Every spark fueled by fear I don’t need their rules or grace Your shadow’s mine No one takes your place [Verse 2] My scars are maps of what I’ve lost But for you I’ll pay the cost They can call me twisted Call me wrong But your name is my eternal song [Prechorus] No escape from the heat of my vow You’re mine forever Starting now [Chorus] I’ll burn the world to keep you near Every spark fueled by fear I don’t need their rules or grace Your shadow’s mine No one takes your place
