Verse 1 Tinsel crowns and plastic haloes, Saints with dirt beneath their nails. We learned early how to fake it, Smile wide when hope derails. Your prayers sound like apologies, Mine sound like threats to God. If holiness means never breaking, Then we never had a shot. Pre-Chorus They dress redemption up real nice, But we know better than the price. Chorus Plastic haloes, falling off, We never wore ‘em right. If loving you’s a mortal sin, I’ll sin with you tonight. No pure hands, no clean escape— Just hearts still trying anyway. Verse 2 Nativity in broken glass, Mary’s crying neon tears. Angels traded wings for fists, Just trying to survive the years. You touch my face like I’m not damned, Like maybe I’m still enough. In a world that taught us how to hurt, You taught me how to trust. Pre-Chorus If grace is earned, we’re in debt deep, But love’s the one thing we still keep. Chorus Plastic haloes, cracked and bent, We wore ‘em till they split. If heaven turns its back on us, Then heaven ain’t worth shit. No absolution, no disguise— Just truth reflected in your eyes. Bridge Burn the rules, melt the gold, Let the story rot and fold. If damnation’s what we choose, I choose it long as I’m with you. Final Chorus Plastic haloes hit the ground, We stop pretending now. If this is hell, then let it be The only place you’re next to me.
