[Intro — whispered hauntingly over distant piano]
She came crawling through the midnight fog
With a black-veiled halo and a heart gone wrong
Ravens screaming scripture from the cathedral spires
While the moon hung low like a funeral pyre
⸻
[Verse 1]
Silk dripped down her bones like a widow’s prayer
Every step she took made the darkness stare
Shadows bowed their heads when she passed them by
Like saints confessing just to feel alive
She wore sorrow like a sharpened crown
Built her empire where the dead girls drown
Buried old names beneath freezing rain
Now she blooms from dirt with blood in her veins
⸻
[Pre-Chorus]
Oh Gods—
The night itself adored her sins
Every broken soul came crawling in
⸻
[Chorus]
She’s the cathedral of crows
The queen of broken halos
Dancing with ghosts in candlelight glow
With whiskey tears and a heart carved cold
Men fall to their knees
Begging heaven for relief
But she tastes like ruin wrapped in silken smoke
A beautiful disaster nobody can hold
She doesn’t run from darkness anymore—
She became the reason darkness feels beautiful
⸻
[Verse 2]
Mirror cracked with another lonely kiss
Death stood silent watching all of this
He memorized the tremble in her breath
Like even reapers ache for things they cannot possess
The city whispered myths about her name
Said she could set entire worlds aflame
Sailors feared her like a storm at sea
But still they drowned exactly where she’d be
And underneath the lace and cemetery skin
Lived a lonely little war she couldn’t win
So she slow danced with the empty air
Hoping lost love still existed somewhere
⸻
[Breakdown]
BLACK MOON!
RAVEN HEART!
TEAR THE HEAVENS ALL APART!
She survived every grave they made
Now she wears the night like a blade
⸻
[Final Chorus]
She’s the cathedral of crows
A hymn no angel knows
Every scar inside her glitters in the cold
Like shattered stained glass made of blackened gold
And the moon still bends for her
While the shadows call her siren
Even Death keeps lingering near
Just to hear her sing again
She doesn’t fear the dark below—
She built a throne inside and made it her own.
