Lyrics
I knew your eyes before I knew your name
A ghost of thunder, a flicker of a flame
Some forgotten language on my tongue went weak
The ground beneath my comfortable old life began to creak
And everything I tried to hide, you saw it in a glance
You didn't give me comfort, you didn't give a chance
I think we had a deal, from before the stars were born
You're not my lover, you're the eye of the storm
You're not my shelter, you're the burning flame
To make me face myself and scream my own damn name!
You are the mirror I was scared to see
Reflecting every broken part of me
The beautiful chaos I was meant to find
A perfect storm to wreck my peace of mind
And everything I tried to hide, you saw it in a glance
You didn't give me comfort, you didn't give a chance
I think we had a deal, from before the stars were born
You're not my lover, you're the eye of the storm
You're not my shelter, you're the burning flame
To make me face myself and scream my own damn name!
We didn't meet to fall in love, we met to fall apart
To tear down all the walls I built around my coward heart
To burn away the doubts I left behind
And be the catalyst for what I had to find!
We definitely had a deal, from before the stars were born!
You're not my lover, you're the eye of the storm!
You're not my shelter, you're the burning flame!
To make me face myself and scream my own damn name!
We had a deal
Yeah, we had a deal
The deal was pain... and change
