Laid at your cruel mercy
Resting in my glory, pretty and whole
In the afterglow of awe and euphoria
The wait was thankless and long
Breath undone, my prayers in silence
The violence of wanting and despair
The demons in my mind
All the shadows coming from within
Vibrating to the touch of the light
The sins in our apocryphals
We fall from the grace we forge
And we conquer havens in the sky
Promise me death and life
Through hell and through time
The misery and delight of who we are
I'll witness you with my love
I'll bathe you in my own blood
To overcome and dance in the dark
Through crazy twists and turns
The hottest flame and slowest burn
The one who came from afar
Brokenhearted with ashes in his hand
Fate is your ally and your alibi
You dared me calling it by it's name
Claiming rituals and confessions
And concessions for it to come alive
This lonely elation wraps me in its ruin
Consumed in the purest of the wantings
And in it's little deaths it's satisfied
In your arms I’m neither saint nor sinner
I'm a spirit craving for transcendence
And flesh burning in candlelight
