TsunamiNami - Between Fire and Shadow

In the silence, I hear the storm
Of words unsaid, of hearts yet torn
A fire inside, it pulls me near
But I hold my breath, consumed by fear

I want to fight for you, to stand my ground
But if I reach too far, will you drown?
In the blaze of all I feel, will you retreat?
Or will you rise with me, fierce yet sweet?

I am the flame, but you're the air
And I'm afraid of burning where
The line is thin, between too much
And not enough of your soft touch

I will fight, but with an open hand
I'll burn bright, but I won't demand
Your heart, it beats its own wild song
And I'm afraid of steering wrong
Between fire and shadow, I'll stand tall
But if you need to rise, I'll let you fall
Because love, it's not a battlefield
It's a kingdom we both must yield

A warrior's heart, but made of glass
Afraid of breaking with every pass
Your eyes, they pierce right through my soul
And yet, I know I can't control

I'll raise my sword, but it won't be sharp
To defend my love, but not your heart
The fear I hold, it screams inside
That if I push too hard, you'll hide

I'm the flame, but you're the breeze
And I'm afraid that you'll retreat
If I fight too strong, will you take flight?
Or join me in this endless night?

I will fight, but with an open hand
I'll burn bright, but I won't demand
Your heart, it beats its own wild song
And I'm afraid of steering wrong
Between fire and shadow, I'll stand tall
But if you need to rise, I'll let you fall
Because love, it's not a battlefield
It's a kingdom we both must yield

I see you standing, proud and free
But do you see this war in me?
Between desire, between the fear
Of holding close or drawing near

Do you feel the same? Or is my fight
A battle lost before it's right?
I can't command, I won't control
But I need to know if you feel whole

I will fight, but with an open hand
I'll burn bright, but I won't demand
Your heart, it beats its own wild song
And I'm afraid of steering wrong
Between fire and shadow, I'll stand tall
But if you need to rise, I'll let you fall
Because love, it's not a battlefield
It's a kingdom we both must yield

Between fire and shadow, I stand alone
But I leave the throne, for you to own
In your time, in your own way
I'll be here, waiting for the day...
