TO DIE FOR Verse 1 You walked in dressed like good intentions, knife-edge smile beneath the silk. The kind of beautiful that teaches common sense to kneel. Every saint looked nervous. Every sinner looked at home. Funny how the sweetest fruit always grows beside the rope. I could hear the warning hidden underneath applause. Even wolves know flowers can be camouflage. ⸻ Pre-Chorus I should’ve called it danger. Instead… I called it destiny. ⸻ Chorus You’re to die for. That’s the problem. Everything worth worshipping comes sharpened at the bottom. To die for. So beautiful it hurts. Every heaven writes its name inside the dirt. You’re to die for. God… What a curse. ⸻ Verse 2 You wore forever like a borrowed leather jacket. Fit you perfectly— never really yours. I watched entire kingdoms trade their crowns for better cages. History repeats itself wearing prettier faces. The hook was never hidden. It was polished till it shined. People rarely choke on poison— it’s the sugar that they find. ⸻ Pre-Chorus Some lessons arrive smiling. ⸻ Chorus You’re to die for. That’s the problem. Everything worth worshipping comes sharpened at the bottom. To die for. So beautiful it hurts. Every heaven writes its name inside the dirt. You’re to die for. God… What a curse. ⸻ Bridge Every altar asks for blood. Nobody mentions that until you’re kneeling. We mistake survival for love when leaving would’ve been the holiest thing. I kissed the blade because it glittered. Then wondered who taught steel to look like mercy. ⸻ Final Chorus You’re to die for. That’s the lie. Every perfect thing arrives already dressed in white. You’re to die for. But I’m staying alive. Some flowers only bloom to prove not everything beautiful deserves to survive. To die for… Not this time.
