Love You Like A Threat

(Verse 1)

You walk in like a bad decision

Leather jacket, killer smile

Every look feels like a prison

But I’ve been locked up for a while

Your touch is trouble on my skin

Your laugh a loaded gun

Every time you pull me in

I forget who I was

(Pre-Chorus

They say love should feel like peace

But you feel like gasoline

(Chorus)

I don’t love you like a promise

I love you like a threat

Like something I can’t outrun

And something I won’t forget

You don’t save me, you don’t fix me

You just light up my mess

I don’t love you like heaven

I love you like a threat

(Verse 2)

We kiss like we’re starting fires

In the back of every room

Your eyes say we’re both liars

But I don’t mind the truth

Two boys playing with matches

In a world built out of doubt

If they’re gonna talk about us

Let’s give them something to talk about

(Pre-Chorus)

They say love should feel safe

But safe never felt this brave

(Chorus)

I don’t love you like a promise

I love you like a threat

Like something I can’t outrun

And something I won’t forget

You don’t save me, you don’t fix me

You just light up my mess

I don’t love you like a heaven

I love you like a threat

(Bridge)

Let them stare, let them judge

Let them call us insane

We don’t need their permission

To feel this kind of flame

Your hand in mine in the dark

Feels louder than any prayer

If loving you is dangerous

Then I’m ready to go there

(Final Chorus)

I don’t love you like a story

With a pretty sunset

I love you like a riot

With nothing to regret

You don’t calm me, you don’t change me

You just take my breath

I don’t love you like heaven

I love you like a threat

(Outro)

Two hearts, one spark

In a world that says no

If this is what danger feels like

I don’t ever wanna go

Don’t ever let us go
