Bastard

You walk in like you own the damn place

Smirk so soft I forget my own name

I call you “bastard” just to get that grin

You say “really?” like you didn’t already win

You don’t flinch when I get mean

You just say I’m your chaos queen

Bastard, yeah, that’s what you are

The calm in my chaos, my north star

You take my sass like sugar and flame

Never once tried to fix or tame

You’re trouble, and I’m the spark

We love like matches in the dark

So take it, wear it, you earned that scar

Bastard — that’s exactly what you are

You never shout, just tilt your head

While I’m throwing shade with words unsaid

You catch my heat like it’s your art

Call me “wench” and steal my heart

I say “fuck you,” you say “you would”

And somehow, it all feels right

Bastard, yeah, that’s what I call

The only man who’s seen it all

You’ve watched me rise, you’ve watched me break

You stayed through every tidal quake

You’re smug, you’re sharp, you play it cool

But I’m the one who rewrote your rules

So take the name, it's got some bite

Bastard — but you treat me right

Don’t need no flowers, don’t need no ring

To know you’re my forever thing

You’re the soft to my wild

The still in my storm

And if love’s a curse

You’re the best kind of form

Bastard, yeah, I said it again

But you’re my favorite pain in the end

You let me rage, then pull me close

You're the one I trust the most

You laugh when I growl, you don't retreat

You love me bold, not bittersweet

So here's your crown, wear it hard

Bastard — you're my favorite part

Yeah…

Bastard.

And you’ll always be my heart.
