Ember covered roses
And our smoke spins your name
Into spirals of hearts,
Then it bursts into flames

The sight of an angel
Left me speechless, with grace
So I panicked like always  
And blew dust in your face

In that full moon moment
You were under my spell  
So I stole you, for mine
And dragged you back to hell

That's where I lost myself
And gave it all to you
I ******* stole your soul
But you devoured mine, too

Then the sky ripped in half
And the stars all collapsed
The heavens opened up
'Cause they wanted you back

Explosions in your eyes
Made me drop to my knees
And my poison heart bled  
When they ordered you free

You flew back to yourself
I fell back to the ground
My horns caught on fire
As your wings were unbound

You were just an angel
Haunted by the devil
Begging for attention while
Your halo wasn't leveled

But I made you my god
And gave you a throne
You tricked me with mirrors
And turned me to stone

I am but a demon
Of my own shallow ways
So I reach for the dagger
Let myself go to waste

Hollow in your presence
Take this as your treasure
Forever a statue
For your viewing pleasure
