I'll damn the dawn ( The priestess song)

[Verse 1] [fragile, trembling, intimate] I was the virgin dressed in white, A holy flame against the night. Born to bleed upon the stone, To keep the beast from flesh and bone. But you came forth, the dagger near, The shadow’s will, my greatest fear… And when you should have struck me through, The world fell silent...I saw you. [Chorus] For love, I’ll damn the dawn, Let the ancient beast awaken on. If my blood must fall to keep the sky, Then let it burn, I won’t comply. For when you spared me, the truth was clear, Life began the moment you drew near. I choose the darkness, I break the vow, The world may fade, but I am yours now [Verse 2] [trembling but more assured] They say my death would seal the gate, That in my blood lies the world’s fate. But how can I kneel, how can I pray, When you’ve shown me life in another way? I fear the altar, I fear the knife, But not the thought of a shared life. Better to watch creation fall, Than never to have your love at all. [Chorus] For love, I’ll damn the dawn, Let the ancient beast awaken on. If my blood must fall to keep the sky, Then let it burn, I won’t comply. For when you spared me, the truth was clear, Life began the moment you drew near. I choose the darkness, I break the vow, The world may fade, but I am yours now [Bridge ] [soft, fragile] I was meant to save them all, To rise in light, to take the fall. But when your hand refused the kill, I lost my chains, I lost my will. I was a saint, untouched, confined… But you set free what was resigned. [Final Chorus ] [ powerful, tragic, soaring] For love, I’ll damn the dawn, Let the ancient beast awaken on. If my blood must fall to keep the sky, Then let it burn, I won’t comply. For when you spared me, the truth was clear, Life began the moment you drew near. I choose the darkness, I break the vow, The world may fade, but I am yours now [Outro] [ Instrumental, vocalization]
