Verse 1

Midnight drips like poison rain,

Every heartbeat sounds the same.

Silhouettes behind my eyes,

Truth is just another lie.

Pre-Chorus

You said I was your saving grace,

But I see the cracks in your holy face.

Chorus

Black halo, falling from the sky,

Saints don’t bleed, but I know why.

Twist the light, make it burn too slow,

Crown of thorns with a black halo.

Verse 2

Velvet chains around my throat,

Every prayer turns into smoke.

Kiss of fire, bitter taste,

Love’s a game you can’t erase.

Pre-Chorus

You said I was your saving grace,

But I see the cracks in your holy face.

Chorus

Black halo, falling from the sky,

Saints don’t bleed, but I know why.

Twist the light, make it burn too slow,

Crown of thorns with a black halo.

Bridge

Angels drown where the devils hide,

I wear the dark on the other side.

If heaven breaks, then let it go,

I’ll find my wings in the undertow.

Final Chorus

Black halo, burning in the fire,

Faithless hands pull me higher.

Twist the light, let the shadows grow,

Crown of thorns with a black halo.

Black halo, burning in the fire,

Faithless hands pull me higher.

Twist the light, let the shadows grow,

Crown of thorns with a black halo.

Outro

Black halo…

I was never yours to hold.
