Lyrics

The Fifth Element

Loud, then quiet, too open, too free,
Nerves pulled tight, a heart locked with no key.
Time slips through, and thoughts run wild,
Bold and strong, with a fire untiled.

You ask—she’ll answer, you leave—she’ll sting,
Unpredictable, her moods take wing.
She’ll hurt, she’ll rage, throw words like flames,
She bears the pain but takes no blame.

She loves, she burns, and then fades away,
No faith in dreams, no mask to betray.
She’ll walk alone, with no tears in sight,
Loud, then quiet, too open, too bright.

Her spirit’s fierce, her will like steel,
She hides her wounds, she’ll never reveal.
She’ll leave the scene when the time feels right,
But in her silence, there’s endless fight.

She loves, she burns, and then fades away,
No faith in dreams, no mask to betray.
She’ll walk alone, with no tears in sight,
Loud, then quiet, too open, too bright.

“Stay as you are,” he whispers, unsure,
“Don’t hide your love—I need to feel more.”
“Drop the mask, let me see your light,
Show me the fire that keeps you alive.”

She turns to him, her walls still high,
A storm in her heart, a tear in her eye.
“Can you take me as I’ve always been?
A woman of fire, with shadows within?”

“Yes,” he says, “I’ll take the flame,
The love, the rage, the joy, the pain.”
“Stay as you are, don’t fade, don’t run—
With you, my battles are already won.”

She stands her ground, her gaze intense,
Her love no longer a self-defense.
Loud or quiet, too open, too free,
At last, she’s loved for all she can be.
