Verse 1 (low, intimate)
You found me in the quiet dark
Where I keep my softer parts
Said my name like it was prayer
Like I’d always been right there
Hands like sin, but voice like grace
Left your shadow on my face
You held me like a sacred thing
Then vanished just as quick
⸻
Pre-Chorus (rising tension)
Oh, I should’ve known better
Than to worship what won’t stay
⸻
Chorus (rich, emotional)
You were holy like hunger
Something I could never keep
I was down on my knees in wonder
While you slipped right out of reach
I gave you every piece of heaven
Every truth I tried to hide
But you only loved the confession
Not the sinner inside
⸻
Verse 2 (earthy, vivid imagery)
Your love was a storm at sea
Pulling wreckage out of me
Turned my bones into a song
Then left before too long
I tasted something close to God
In the way you held me hard
But your faith was never mine
You were only passing time
⸻
Pre-Chorus
Oh, I called you my salvation
But you never said my name
⸻
Chorus
You were holy like hunger
Something I could never keep
I was down on my knees in wonder
While you slipped right out of reach
I gave you every piece of heaven
Every truth I tried to hide
But you only loved the confession
Not the sinner inside
⸻
Bridge (dark, powerful)
If loving you’s a sin, I’ll take it
Let it carve me to the bone
I would bleed just to feel it
Even if I’m left alone
⸻
Final Chorus (full intensity)
You were holy like hunger
And I starved at your door
I would’ve given you forever
But you never wanted more
I laid my soul out like an altar
Let you take what you desired
But you left me with the ashes
Of a love you never required
