[Verse 1 — intimate, restrained clean]
There’s something loaded in your stare
Like one wrong move could set fire to the air
You don’t speak, you let the silence cut
And I keep getting closer when I know I shouldn’t
You leave your shadow underneath my skin
I tear it out, you find your way back in
Every instinct tells me not tonight
But every warning sounds better in your voice
[Pre-Chorus — breathy rise]
Don’t tell me where this ends
I already know
Some things aren’t meant to save you
Some things just won’t let go
[Chorus — soaring high cleans]
Keep me under your spell
Drag me somewhere I won’t tell
I see the edge beneath my feet
Still I want you next to me
You’re the match against the flame
The sweetest way to lose my name
I know you’re dangerous as hell
Still, keep me under your spell
[Verse 2 — rhythmic, seductive clean]
You’re midnight crawling through my veins
A beautiful addiction wearing someone else’s face
I lock the door, then leave the key
Like some sick part of me wants you haunting me
Now every stranger wears your silhouette
Every empty room still carries your scent
I tell myself you’re nothing but a phase
Then midnight comes and I’m saying your name
[Pre-Chorus — falsetto into high clean]
I should want distance
I should want release
But every time you vanish
The silence gets its teeth in me
[Chorus — soaring high cleans]
Keep me under your spell
Drag me somewhere I won’t tell
I see the edge beneath my feet
Still I want you next to me
You’re the match against the flame
The sweetest way to lose my name
I know you’re dangerous as hell
Still, keep me under your spell
[Bridge — stripped / intimate falsetto]
Maybe I don’t want the cure
Maybe safe was never what I wanted
Maybe knowing you’re no good for me
Is exactly why I can’t stop it
You’re the thought I shouldn’t entertain
The door I shouldn’t open
The voice inside my head that says
Just once more…
When we both know
Once was never enough
[Build — clean vocal climbing higher]
So come a little closer
Make me question everything
I know exactly what you are
And I still need to hear you say—
MINE.
[Immediate high clean / almost breaking]
And God, I hate how much I want to be…
[Final Chorus — huge layered high cleans]
Keep me under your spell
If we burn, then don’t tell
I see the ending in your eyes
And still I stay another night
You’re the match against the flame
The beautiful ruin I can’t escape
I know this doesn’t end well
But keep me—
Keep me under your spell
[Outro — close-mic clean → falsetto]
I know what you are…
I know what this is…
That’s what scares me.
I still want it.
