[Verse 1] Velvet mouth Poisoned tongue Every promise Comes undone Red wine kiss On a borrowed bed You call it heaven But you look half‑dead Mirror framed In a halo stain Gold on your neck But it smells like chains You say “I’m fine I’m just having fun” So why you crying When the night is done? [Chorus] Daughters of Mara Dancing in the flame Chasing every shadow And calling it a name You sell your halos For a moment in his hands But the pleasures of the flesh Turn your castles into sand If you wanna be an angel Let your heart Your mind ignite Daughters of Mara Remember you were light [Verse 2] Cheap thrill hit On an empty soul Every sweet touch Takes a little more control Black lace mask Over hollow eyes You keep on laughing Just to mute the cries You feed the hunger Till it bites you back Every “I love you” Feels like an attack You say “I’m free I can do what I desire” But every single freedom Feels like barbed wire [Chorus] Daughters of Mara Dancing in the flame Chasing every shadow And calling it a name You sell your halos For a moment in his hands But the pleasures of the flesh Turn your castles into sand If you wanna be an angel Let your heart Your mind ignite Daughters of Mara Remember you were light [Bridge] You were carved from stars Not from hands that bruise You were meant for love Not for being used [beat falls away] Make your heart beautiful Let your mind grow wings Hell is just the echo Of forgotten Holy things [Chorus] Daughters of Mara Step out of the flame Turn away from shadows Call yourself by your real name Take back your halo From the dirt and from his hands Every burned-down pleasure Can be rebuilt into land If you wanna be an angel Let your heart Your mind ignite Daughters of Mara You can still be light
