[Verse 1]
Glass crown
Perfect little hallway saint
White dress
Hiding all the rust and paint
Family portraits
Crooked on the chapel wall
Every smile
Dared me not to fall
[Pre-Chorus]
You walked in like a bad idea
Red grin in a leather coat
Said
“Halo looks like it hurts your neck”
And my yes caught in my throat (oh)
[Chorus]
Now I’m your hellbound princess
Burning up my paper throne
They pray like they can fix this
But I already left that home
They’re shouting through the stained glass
Bleeding from their Sunday vows
They’re fighting hard to win me back
But I’m too far
I’m too far down
With you
I wear my darkness like a crown
[Verse 2]
Cold calls
“Come back
You can still be pure”
Tears fall
Every guilt trip sounds rehearsed
They call you poison
Like I can’t decide at all
But your arms
Feel truer than their God
[Pre-Chorus]
We laugh at all the silver frames
Name dates like they’re battle scars
You kiss the cross tattooed on my wrist
Say
“You were born to love the dark”
[Chorus]
Now I’m your hellbound princess
Burning up my paper throne
They pray like they can fix this
But I already left that home
They’re shouting through the stained glass
Bleeding from their Sunday vows
They’re fighting hard to win me back
But I’m too far
I’m too far down
With you
I wear my darkness like a crown
[Bridge]
Let them scream my name in circles
Let them flood my phone with grace
I chose every scar I’m keeping
I chose you
I chose this place (hey)
I won’t crawl back to their cages
I won’t beg to be re-made
If loving you’s a losing war
Then let their daylight fade
[Chorus]
I’m still your hellbound princess
Dancing in the open flame
Their “good girl” is gone
She left this
Buried with my old last name
They’re pounding on the stained glass
Breaking on their sacred ground
They’re fighting hard to win me back
But I won’t turn
I won’t turn ‘round
With you
I wear my darkness like a crown
With you
I’ll never go back down
