Touch my mouth
And hold my tongue
I'll never be your chosen one
I'll be home, safely tucked away
You can't tempt me if I don't see the dayThe pull on my flesh is just too strong
It stifles the choice and the air in my lungs
Better not to breathe than to breathe a lie
When I open my body and breathe aliveI will not speak of your sin
There was no way out for him
The mirror shows not
Your values are all shotBut oh, my heart was flawed
I knew my weakness
So hold my hand
Consign me not to darknessCrawl on my belly til the sun goes down
I'll never wear your broken crown
I took the rope and I fucked it all the way
In this twilight, how dare you speak of graceCrawl on my belly til the sun goes down
I'll never wear your broken crown
I'll take the ropes and fuck it all the way
In this twilight, how dare you speak of graceCrawl on my belly til the sun goes down
I'll never wear your broken crown
I can take the rope and I can fuck it all the way
But in this twilight, our choices seal our fate
