From the beginning everyone knew they'd be trouble
From the minute his hand touched her waist and their eyes met they knew
Every sunset that outlined their touching lips and those secretive C-major smiles
How every sentence dripping with love
And every gaze laced with potential
Was the calm before the storm
Because waves crash across rocks so fiercely, honey and so did they
She cried until her eyes were red
And the sky was red
And every memory of him was the deepest scarlet there's ever been
But he can't see straight or dream
Everything he sees is her and her delicate brand of poison
And all they had was time
But all they want is more
Don't play with fire, honey
Don't go outside during storms
