[Verse 1]
Violet eyes in the back of the classroom
Black nail moons on a busted phone
You stare straight through my armor
He pretends that he’s carved from stone
Hallway ghost
You walk by slow
He flinches like I’m made of silver
Every look
Every almost-touch
Feels like someone’s pulling triggers
[Chorus]
You’re the wolf and I’m the fire
I’m the name inside your riot
You keep running from the hunger in your veins
I’m the storm your pack keeps fearing
I’m the truth behind your breathing
You’re my fate and I’m the one you can’t contain
Violet eyes
Wolf heart
Tearing you apart
[Verse 2]
Full moon hangs in the parking lot sky
Cigarette sparks and your clenched jaw shakes
I hear a growl in your bitten-off words
“Stay away” but your pupils quake
You back up
Knuckles white
Like you’re holding back an avalanche
But your shadow
Leans toward mine
Like it’s tired of the distance
[Chorus]
You’re the wolf and I’m the fire
I’m the name inside your riot
You keep running from the hunger in your veins
I’m the storm your pack keeps fearing
I’m the truth behind your breathing
You’re my fate and I’m the one you can’t contain
Violet eyes
Wolf heart
Tearing you apart
[Bridge]
I hear him howling through your teeth
(“She’s the one, she’s the one”)
You choke on every heartbeat
Like you’re drowning in the sun
If I’m the curse
Then break me
If I’m the key
Then turn
Either way
You’re burning
And I’m the burn
[Chorus]
You’re the wolf and I’m the fire
I’m the name inside your riot
You keep running from the hunger in your veins
I’m the storm your pack keeps fearing
I’m the truth behind your breathing
You’re my fate and I’m the one you can’t contain
Violet eyes
Wolf heart
You can’t tear us apart
