[Verse 1 – soft, ambient piano with sparse drums]
You came to me in whispers,
Through the walls I tried to build.
Every breath you took was scripture,
And every silence, unfulfilled.
Eyes like oceans swallowing my pride,
You move through me — the ghost I can’t hide.
[Pre-Chorus – tension builds with layered synth and falsetto vocals]
Say my name like it’s sacred,
Break me like I’ve begged it.
Fall apart in devotion —
Leave me drowning in your ocean.
[Chorus – full band, heavy drop, low growls & soaring clean vocals]
I gave you my sanctum —
You burned it to light your way.
Tore down my altar,
But I still kneel every day.
Is this love or is it penance?
Your shadow’s my sentence.
I scream into the silence,
But you never fade.
[Verse 2 – low vocals, eerie textures, slow groove]
Tasted your grace on the knife-edge,
Drank your poison like wine.
You stitched me from the inside,
Now I’m yours by design.
I danced in the ruin, called it divine —
Your touch is a wound that rewrites mine.
[Pre-Chorus – more desperate, rising intensity]
Pull me down, deeper still —
Wrap your will around my will.
Paint your name across my skin,
So I remember where I’ve been.
[Chorus – heavier, more raw emotion]
I gave you my sanctum —
You used it to pave your throne.
Shattered every promise,
Yet I still call you home.
Is this worship or surrender?
I forget where I end.
Every prayer, a confession —
But you won’t descend.
[Bridge – quiet piano, choral backing vocals, rising into explosion]
If love is just a grave we share…
Then bury me deeper, I won’t care.
Let my bones be your cathedral floor,
I’ll be yours forever — nothing more.
[Final Chorus – ethereal harmonies + brutal instrumentation]
I gave you my sanctum —
Now it’s ashes in your hands.
Still I sing your name in silence,
To a god who never stands.
Was it love or was it madness?
Did I matter in the end?
I would bleed a thousand lifetimes…
Just to break again.
[Outro – fading piano, whispered vocal]
Sanctum… sanctum…
Where you left me to begin.
