Cathedral of You

Verse 1

I built a church inside my ribs

Just to keep your ghost alive

Every prayer turns into hunger

Every hymn becomes a lie

Your name hangs from my tongue like poison

Sweet enough to make me kneel

If heaven wanted my devotion

They shouldn’t have made you feel this real

Pre-Chorus

And I know I’m not a good man

I know what I become

When the world reaches for your hand

And I want to burn the sun

Chorus

You’re the cathedral that I worship

The ruin that I crawl into

If God himself came down and claimed you

I’d make an enemy of truth

Let the angels call me faithless

Let the saints say I’m possessed

I’d trade every kingdom after death

For one more heartbeat in your chest

Verse 2

Every scar you hide is scripture

Every flaw a sacred thing

I’d wear your sins around my throat

Like a dead king wears his ring

And if the world decided someday

That I don’t deserve your light

Then I’ll become the monster they fear

Just to keep you by my side

Breakdown

If the end stood between us

I’d tear apart forever stone by stone

Not because I own you

Because losing you

Feels like losing every version of home

Final Chorus

You’re the cathedral that I worship

The fire that I can’t undo

And if salvation means forgetting

Then damn salvation too

I’ll be the villain in the story

The shadow underneath your throne

Let heaven close its gates forever

As long as I never stand alone
