He's swirling heat and embers
The scent of spices and charcoal
He's my friend, my love, my defender
And in my hands I hold his soul
I was young and dumb and full of trust
And I found myself falling for a devil
Never thought my life could fall to dust
How terribly ironic, the monster and the angel
Everyone calls our love toxic, like poison
They doubt me and him, our love
It seems as though for no reason
But this is the one thing I'm proud of
I can't help wanting something so sweet
All I've ever known is bitter cold and ice
And in reverse my love is just like the heat
So soothing and soft, a warm paradise
He's protective and maybe a little possessive
But I was the one to who latched on first
I ignored the way he was always so aggressive
He ignored the way they all treated me as the worst
With him by my side I feel so much stronger
Like life without him would devastate me
Missing him would make my pain last longer
And having him leaves us both feeling free
