LILITH’S LITANY

(Verse 1 - Whispered) *You built your throne on trembling bones,* *Hung the stars on hollow praise.* *But night has claws, and I *—* unspooled your laws,* *When you gasped my name through the smoke and the haze...* (Pre-Chorus - Growling) *Oh, Lord, did it feel like falling?* *When the serpent *wasn’t* the first to crawl in?* *You bit the apple—*I* watched it happen—* *Now bleed for me like Eden bled for sin.* (Chorus - Anthemic, Crashing) *I am the war you couldn’t win,* *The first breath *out* when the world began.* *You called it ruin—*I* call it *climax—* *Come lay your halo in my hands.* (Verse 2 - Smoldering) *Eve wears my lips now, laughs at your curse,* *Dances naked through the wreck of your church.* *Funny how heaven *aches* like a wound,* *When the angels learn *exactly* whom they serve...* (Bridge - Frenzied, Spoken) *Tell me, Father—was it worth the lie?* *The gates swung wide the night you *cried* my name.* *The original sin?* *Your hands between my thighs.* *Now the sky is drunk, and the earth *is* aflame.* (Outro - Hymn-like, Decadent) *I’ll *be* the storm, the sacrament, the flood,* *Your rib *still* trembles where I left it—*god.* *Kneel.* *Beg.* *Come.*
