This will be
The end of me
This kind of love burns too bright, leaving me lying with blisters
But my mind’s spinning out of control, like I’m trapped in a twister
Yeah, I know it’ll never last
I fell too hard and much too fast
It’s like all of a sudden, I can’t catch my breath
And it’s a little risky, like I’m flirting with death
It’s the falling so hard, I know I will regret
Being lovestruck, the butterflies, and feeling so content
But you make this feel so sweet
And gravity’s already pulled me off my feet
And you stared just a little too long
Your voice is my favorite song
You’ve got starlight dancing in your eyes
A glint that reminds me of the heavenly skies
Embers burst into sparks and we might crumble to ashes
But we’ll shine brighter than the fire of a million matches
Blind the whole world, take it over by storm
Take this rain and turn it into a hailstorm
I’d love death to be this kind
No, I wouldn’t mind
If this would be
The end of me
