Shadows and Flames

I walk through streets that don't see me
A ghost in light, a soul that bleeds
My hands can burn, my heart can freeze
And every touch of yours confuses me

I hide the fire that I cannot tame
The world whispers cruel, calling my name
You look at me, your eyes like flame
And I don't know if I should stay or break

Ah, give me a million reasons to stay
A million tears that I can't explain
Hold me through the storm and the pain
'Cause I'm afraid of losing you again

I've learned to fight, to bend, to fall
To hide my scars behind these walls
Your love's a spark that shakes my soul
A dangerous pull I cannot control

The shadow I carry, the fire inside
You see the real me, nowhere to hide
I'm torn between rage and fragile pride
And your heart's too strong to leave behind

Ah, give me a million reasons to stay
A million dreams I've lost along the way
Hold me close, let the world fade
I need your love to light my way

If I let you in, will I burn your heart?
Or are we destined to fall apart?
I'm a storm you can't contain
Yet I can't resist the warmth of your flame

Ah, give me a million reasons to stay
A million tears I've cried along the way
Hold me through the fire and the rain
I'm yours tonight, don't let me fade

I'm yours tonight, don't let me fade
