[Verse 1]
Moon on your window
My claws on the glass
You touch my face like a fever
Call me by my past
You see the teeth and don’t tremble
You trace every scar
“I know the beast and the burden
I love who you are”
[Chorus]
So aim for the heart
If heaven wants my blood
Then take it
Load your fear
Pull apart
Every chain that keeps you sacred
When the night guns tear us both in half
I’ll stand between the fire and your last breath
Put the silver in my heart
I’ll love you to my death
[Verse 2]
Hunters in halos
Prayers under breath
Your hands won’t stop shaking
They’re spelling my death
You whisper “forgive me”
Your eyes beg to stay
I kiss the barrel and bite down
“And steal you away”
[Chorus]
So aim for the heart
If heaven wants my blood
Then take it
Load your fear
Pull apart
Every chain that keeps you sacred
When the night guns tear us both in half
I’ll stand between the fire and your last breath
Put the silver in my heart
I’ll love you to my death
[Bridge]
Let them carve their cross in my skin (oh)
Let them write their laws in my veins
Every shot they fire
I drink it in
I turn their bright cure into chains
I’m the curse they swore to sever
You’re the prayer they couldn’t break
I’ll be hunted
I’ll be never
If it’s you that I can save
[Chorus]
So aim for the heart
If heaven wants my blood
Then take it
Load your fear
Pull apart
Every chain that keeps you sacred
When the light comes
When the rifles rise
I’ll bleed out every myth
Every last lie
Put the silver in my heart
And live inside my death
