Tragedy... Feathers in the Fire

Verse 1: I was born of the morning, You were forged in the flame, Two prayers lost in thunder, Never meant to speak a name. I wore the hush of heaven, You wore the scarlet night, Yet somewhere in the silence Our shadows learned to rhyme. Pre-Chorus: You reached through the ruin, I bled through the light, Two worlds on the edge of a dying star, Too far, too near, too bright. Chorus: Oh, my fallen desire, My echo beneath the sun, I am wings made of sorrow, You are the blade I cannot outrun. If love is a war between halos and fire, Then let me burn in your darkened sky— For I was made to save you, And you were made goodbye. Verse 2: Your voice was a red confession In the cathedral of my veins, A hymn of ash and hunger, A fever dressed in chains. I touched your grief like velvet, You kissed my faith like sin, But paradise grows crueler When hell is under your skin. Pre-Chorus: I called you through moonlight, You answered in pain, Like rain on the tomb of the innocent, Like roses drowned in flame. Chorus: Oh, my fallen desire, My echo beneath the sun, I am wings made of sorrow, You are the blade I cannot outrun. If love is a war between halos and fire, Then let me burn in your darkened sky— For I was made to save you, And you were made goodbye. Bridge: No dawn for the cursed, No sleep for the pure, Only this starless yearning No heaven can endure. I would tear down forever, I would silence the choir, To hold you for one heartbeat Before I feed the fire. Final Chorus: Oh, my beautiful ruin, My prayer the gods denied, I am snow on your embers, You are the wound I hide inside. If love is a throne built of silence and pyres, Then crown me in your last twilight cry— For I was made to love you, And you were made goodbye. Outro: So I fall without touching, And you burn without rain, An angel at your doorstep, A demon in my name.
