[Verse 1]
You said I was difficult
Hard to read
Hard to choose
You keep one foot in
One out
Like you’re scared of the bruise
I see you staring at the spark
Praying it doesn’t burn through
You want a halo and a hazard
In the same damn room
[Pre-Chorus]
You want safe
You want wild
You want sinner and a saint in the same smile
Careful
Babe
Careful what you do
Every wish you make comes true
[Chorus]
I’m hellfire and holy water
What you taste is up to you
I can bless you
I can haunt you
Pull you close or pull you through
You can kiss me like confession
Or light me like a fuse
I’m hellfire and holy water
What you taste is up to you (yeah)
[Verse 2]
You trace that line on my shoulder
Like it’s some kind of sign
Ask if I’m trouble or a shelter
I say
“Depends on the night”
You keep your hand on the handle
Car running in the street
But you can’t resist the gamble
Of burning at my feet
[Pre-Chorus]
You want grace
You want blaze
You want heaven with a little sideways
Careful
Babe
Careful what you choose
Every part of me is truth
[Chorus]
I’m hellfire and holy water
What you taste is up to you
I can bless you
I can haunt you
Pull you close or pull you through
You can kiss me like confession
Or light me like a fuse
I’m hellfire and holy water
What you taste is up to you (oh)
[Bridge]
Don’t say you weren’t warned
When the heat hits your tongue (yeah)
When you’re shaking in my arms
Wonder what you’ve begun
Am I your saving grace
Or your favorite mistake?
You decide
You decide
But you don’t get to escape
[Chorus]
I’m hellfire and holy water
What you taste is up to you
I can bless you
I can haunt you
Pull you close or pull you through
You can kiss me like confession
Or light me like a fuse
I’m hellfire and holy water
What you taste is up to you
[Outro]
All your angels
All your demons
Meet right here in this room
I’m hellfire and holy water
What you taste is up to you (up to you)
