Ancient bells begin to chime  
Through cathedrals lost to time  
As organs groan their rusted hymn  
The sacred turns to sacred sin

Cathedral bells toll through these halls  
As crimson petals softly fall  
Your venom courses through my veins  
These altar steps now bear our stains  
The saints have turned their marble eyes  
As roses wilt beneath dead skies  
Each step I take leads deeper still  
Into this dark, unholy thrill

Beneath stained glass and marble stone  
Your touch has carved me flesh from bone  
I drank the poison from your lips  
Now heaven's light begins to slip

Crown me with your thorns of grace  
Let blood run down my face  
I'll burn this world to feel your kiss  
And drag you down to sweet abyss

The choir's song has turned to screams  
As incense burns in dying beams  
Each candle's light bleeds black with pain  
Since your touch left its sacred stain  
The altar cloth runs red with wine  
As blasphemy becomes divine  
These hallowed walls will bear the mark  
Of when the light embraced the dark

Beneath stained glass and marble stone  
Your touch has carved me flesh from bone  
I drank the poison from your lips  
Now heaven's light begins to slip

Crown me with your thorns of grace  
Let blood run down my face  
I'll burn this world to feel your kiss  
And drag you down to sweet abyss

The saints avert their eyes in shame  
As I surrender to your name
No prayer can save my blackened soul  
Since you made darkness take control

Crown me with your thorns of grace  
Let blood run down my face  
I'll burn this world to feel your kiss  
And drag you down to sweet abyss

The bells will toll our funeral song  
As heaven weeps for what went wrong  
But in your arms I'll gladly fall  
Until the stars themselves crawl

##The song is a dramatic and tragic tale of succumbing to forbidden love and the consequences of giving in to passion and rebellion. It frames destruction and sin as not just inevitable but intoxicatingly beautiful.
