[Verse 1] Cold chapel Candles caving in Ash on my tongue From every little sin Your vows were vultures Picking through my trust White dress Black altar Woke up in the dust [Chorus] Lead me toward the shadows Where all your saints decay Kneel me in the gallows Let every halo fray If there is any mercy It’s hiding in your eyes So lead me toward the shadows And teach me how to die [Verse 2] Teeth in the roses Rust in the ring You carved a promise That never meant a thing I drink your silence Like poison from a glass Your comfort cuts I bleed and call it “us” [Chorus] Lead me toward the shadows Where all your saints decay Kneel me in the gallows Let every halo fray If there is any mercy It’s hiding in your eyes So lead me toward the shadows And teach me how to die [Bridge] [Breakdown hits Drums lurch into half-time Low gutturals] Drag me down the aisle of bones (hey!) Crown me queen of ruined thrones If love is just a funeral choir I’ll sing in pitch with every liar [Chorus] Lead me toward the shadows Where all your saints decay Kneel me in the gallows Let every halo fray If there is any mercy It’s hiding in your eyes So lead me toward the shadows And teach me how to die (how to die)
