I feel your fear begin to sing, A trembling psalm beneath my ring. My halo burns in black and gold, A sacred lie your hands can hold. The higher voice that calls my name Has blessed my cruelty into flame. ββββββββββββββββββββββ β¦ **Pre-Chorus** β¦ ββββββββββββββββββββββ Breathe it in, let it rise, All your sorrow sounds divine.

Will you bleed? Will you beg me to care? Come closer, little martyr, Let me drink the despair. Did I wound you deeply? What a delicate soul. All the pleasure is mine When I take control. You call it poison, I call it holy law. Weakling, keep on crying, I adore every flaw. ββββββββββββββββββββββ β¦ **Pre-Chorus** β¦ ββββββββββββββββββββββ Breathe it in, let it rise, All your sorrow sounds divine.
