**Verse 1**
Your shadow’s burning holes through my skin
Every breath you take pulls me back in
You’re poison wrapped in velvet, I taste the edge
One step closer and I lose my head
**Pre-Chorus**
I’m a storm in a cage, breaking the steel
The closer you stand, the less I can feel
I crave you like fire, I choke on desire
So I beg you — don’t come any higher
**Chorus**
Keep your distance, don’t feed the flame
I’m drowning in the sound of your name
You’re the knife that cuts, the wound I hide
Stay away or I’ll burn alive
**Verse 2**
Your voice is a trigger, it rattles my bones
A siren calling me to come too close
I built these walls but you’re slipping through
You’re everything I want, everything I’ll lose
**Bridge (breakdown)**
I see you standing — a ghost I can’t touch
My hands tremble, they want too much
I’m chained to a fire I’ll never tame
If you reach for me, I’ll take the blame
*(instrumental guitar solo, dark and raw)*
**Chorus (repeat with variation)**
Keep your distance, don’t feed the flame
I’m losing myself when I hear your name
You’re the storm I need, the storm I’ll fight
Stay away, save me tonight
**Outro**
Stay where you are — don’t cross the line
Your light could kill this heart of mine
I’ll love you forever, but not up close
Keep your distance — or I’ll eexplod
