>> Choir homes inside the church of eny fall. I see when your wings unfolded. I was proud to see you
fly, but you carve your halo from my wounds and war my downfall as your sky. Now they call me heretic, but I was the one who prayed to true. You sold your soul for applause.
Tell me did it clap back for you ser wrap your arms around the ones who lie or could make you break what you can't recreate
the candles burn
No one leaves this clean. I blessings in your name. Offered kindness is currency. Now the temple stands hollow haunted
by the ghost of royalty. Maybe when the static fades, we'll remember the vow beneath the scars. Two souls once smeared flames before envy in the stars.
Jealousy, jealousy, a hero we sang to. Jealousy. Jealousy. No victors in this song.
Heat. Heat.
