[Verse 1 ]
Candlelight crawling up your silhouette
Latin on your tongue that you ain’t learned yet
You say my name slow, like a loaded spell
Pull me to the altar, drag me down to hell
Incense on your wrist, smoke under my skin
Roses on the floor where the sins begin
You trace a cross where my halo slips
Prayer on your teeth, poison on your lips
[Pre-Chorus 1 ]
Every time you whisper, walls start shaking
Every vow we break is one we’re making
[Chorus 1 ]
Lay your hands on my halo
Speak in tongues across my chest
You’re the ghost inside my ribcage
You’re the preacher and the hex
If this is sin, don’t save me
Let me drown in how you move
I’m possessed in your cathedral
Every blessing feels like bruise
[Verse 2 ]
You move like a midnight sermon
Black dress like a closed confession
Laugh low, say I look like heaven
“C’mon angel, come learn your lesson”
You trace where my faith starts shaking
Cold hands where my ribs stop praying
You say, “Tell me where your God is now”
When my halo hits your mouth
[Pre-Chorus 2]
You drag your teeth through every promise
Turn my “no” to “maybe I want this”
Every scripture on my tongue goes numb
When you say, “Don’t run”
[Chorus 2 ]
Lay your hands on my halo
Lay me down in your serpent’s den
Holy hands on unholy skin
You’re the ghost inside my ribcage
You’re the preacher and the hex
If this is sin, don’t save me
Let me drown in how you move
I’m possessed in your cathedral
Seraph in your serpent’s den
[Verse 3 ]
Black wine bleeding in a crystal glass
Scripture in your stare, nails in my past
You say, “You were built for altars
Let me see how your halo falters”
You pull the strings on the choir in my veins
Every hallelujah got my demons in chains
You swear you’re just killing time
While you tattoo hell on my spine
[Pre-Chorus 3 ]
You turn my spine into a rosary
Count each vertebra like you own me
Every prayer I almost send above
Drowns in your blood-warm love
[Bridge ]
Choir in my lungs, and you conduct it
Blood on the chalice, and I still trust it
Body as the sermon, sweat like incense
You are every scar that ever made sense
Tie my wrists with your holy thread
Write your name where the prayers go dead
If I’m damned just for wanting you near
Then baby, drag me down right here
[Break ]
Angel on my shoulder, looking away
Demon in your bedroom, begging I stay
Feathers on the floor with the clothes we shed
Wings don’t work with your hands on my neck
Bite down, let the halo break
Cut lines in the vows I made
If I walk out, I’m walking maimed
Branded by the sound of your name
[Final Chorus]
Lay your hands on my halo
Speak in tongues across my chest
Lay me down in your serpent’s den
Holy hands on unholy skin
If this is sin, don’t save me
Every sin tastes like medicine
I’m possessed in your cathedral
Seraph in your serpent’s …… Den
