Soothe The Chaos

I can be your savior
And a villain to the rest of the world
I am more than a walking contradiction
I’m a soul at odds with itself
I can make you feel safe in my arms
Without losing any of the excitement
Of the bad boy you secretly crave
Walking a trembling tightrope
Over a boiling sea of landmines

I may not be who you dreamed of
But don’t put that weight on me
I can soothe the chaos inside you
While setting fire to the calm around us

Your friends say get away
What are you doing with this aberrant
They don’t see what you see in me
And frankly it’s hard to blame them
An anti-social who dragged you in
I trapped a social butterfly
I stared in your willing eyes
And held your id in the palm of my hand

I may not be who you dreamed of
But don’t put that weight on me
I can soothe the chaos inside you
While setting fire to the calm around us

There is more to you than you even knew
But you only see it when you’re with me
You have tried to tame this feral beast
And then rebelled against the calm you sought

I may not be who you dreamed of
But don’t put that weight on me
I can soothe the chaos inside you
While setting fire to the calm around us
While setting fire to the calm around us
