[Intro: Choir]
Kyrie eleison...
Christe eleison...
Kyrie eleison...
[Verse 1]
Candles burning in empty halls,
Echoes rising through sacred walls.
Marble faces, heaven's gaze,
Hiding shadows beneath the praise.
Holy words from silver tongues,
Beautiful lies on everyone.
Every halo shines so bright...
Until it's held against the light.
[Pre-Chorus]
Gold will fade,
Stone will break.
Truth survives
Every fake.
[Chorus]
We're porcelain saints,
White as snow, hollow beneath.
Hands held high while mercy dies,
Wearing faith upon our sleeves.
We're porcelain saints,
Cracking underneath the weight.
Painted perfect, carved by pride...
Only truth survives the fire.
(Choir: Sanctus... Sanctus...)
[Verse 2]
Every prayer becomes a stage,
Every sermon feeds the fame.
You built a throne inside the temple,
Then claimed that God had blessed your name.
Crosses hanging from your neck,
Bitterness inside your chest.
The loudest voices fill the room,
Yet never learned what love demands.
[Pre-Chorus]
Heaven knows
What mirrors hide.
Grace was never
Built on pride.
[Chorus]
We're porcelain saints,
White as snow, hollow beneath.
Hands held high while mercy dies,
Wearing faith upon our sleeves.
We're porcelain saints,
Cracking underneath the weight.
Painted perfect, carved by pride...
Only truth survives the fire.
(Choir: Sanctus... Sanctus...)
[Bridge]
(Choir: Agnus Dei...)
Strip away the robes.
Strip away the gold.
Strip away the image.
Tell me who you are
When no one's watching,
When no one's clapping,
When no one whispers...
Amen.
(Choir: Veritas... Veritas...)
[Final Chorus]
No more porcelain saints,
Let the painted idols break.
I'd rather kneel with honest scars
Than wear perfection on my face.
Break the mirrors.
Break the crowns.
Let every false thing hit the ground.
If faith becomes performance...
It was never faith at all.
(Choir: Kyrie eleison...)
[Outro]
Kyrie eleison...
Christe eleison...
Kyrie eleison...
