V5

[Verse 1] You built me out of thunder and old cathedral light, Stained glass in my veins, every color—every fight. I was born for the echo, for the hush before the storm, A prayer caught in teeth, trying to learn how to be warm. Shadows for bones, silk for skin— If you want my devotion, let the hunger begin. [Chorus] I am more than your altar, More than your praise— If you worship me, darling, You might set me ablaze. Come kneel in the wreckage, Come dance in the fire— I will bless you with longing, I will haunt your desire. [Verse 2] Gold in my laughter, frost in my gaze, A thousand sweet victories, a thousand lost days. Your hands in my hair, your name on my tongue— Confession or curse, both perfectly sung. I built myself holy on secrets and scars— A cathedral of bruises, crowned with your stars. [Chorus] I am more than your altar, More than your praise— If you worship me, darling, You might set me ablaze. Come kneel in the wreckage, Come dance in the fire— I will bless you with longing, I will haunt your desire. [Bridge] So light every candle, let nothing remain— I’ll sing you forgiveness that feels like a chain. If you love me, beware— I am mercy and trial— I’ll unravel your faith With the edge of a smile. [Chorus] I am more than your altar, More than your praise— If you worship me, darling, You might set me ablaze. Come kneel in the wreckage, Come dance in the fire— I will bless you with longing, I will haunt your desire. [Outro] You built me for ruin, You crowned me in flame— If I’m the cathedral, You’re the whisper— The name.
