She walks in velvet boots
where the alleys bend
A silver blade smile,
but her hands still shake
She saves the lost with a dangerous grin And keeps her own
heart locked away (ahhhh)
Don’t ask her name when the moon turns pale She’ll pull you
close, then cut the chain Run,
run, but you want to stay (ah-ah-ahhhh)
Hero
of the night,
take me higher
Crowned in danger,
wrapped in fire
Break my fear with your wild desire
Sing me alive,
alive (oh-oh-oh, ahhhh)
She leaves a red scarf tied to a chapel gate
Kisses trouble like a sacred vow
Under black mascara, mercy aches She is the rescue
and the reckoning now (mm-mm)
She says, be brave when the sirens cry I’ll burn the cage,
I’ll keep you near
Fall,
fall, into the light (ah-ah-ah-ahhhh)
Hero of the night,
take me higher
Crowned in danger,
wrapped in fire
Break my fear with your wild desire
Sing me alive, alive (oh-oh-oh, ahhhh)
Beneath the painted moon,
she finally bleeds No crown,
no mask, just a heart on its knees I touch the scar
she never shows And the whole night knows (ahhhh)
Hero of the night,
take me higher
Crowned in danger,
wrapped in fire
Break my fear with your wild desire
Sing me alive, alive Rise with me now,
alive
(oh-oh-oh, ahhhh)
She fades with dawn,
but the mark remains
(alive, alive)
