I know I needed you around me, I was desperate.
They told me it’s not an addiction I have with you,
So please don’t tell me I’m crazy for wanting you.
You were the one to calm ME down, but the thing is,
Because when I was with you, I felt like my blood was on fire.
On the surface, you seemed soft to me, with you silver-white hair.
When we finally got together, when we fused together,
We became a part of a preordained cycle I couldn’t escape, You helped my destroy everything that was me.
