Loving you was a sin
N' I was desperate for the punishment,
I knew you were sharp poison,
Yet, I drank every inch of you
Like lost soul depraved in deserts.
I never knew how to swim,
But I walked deeper n' deeper
Just to drown in depths of you.
Despite knowing repercussions
Of the ferocious flames,
I chose to embrace the burns & crimsons.
The sting of the pierced blade in my heart
Is vibrating throughout my body;
Still, I stand strong, clinging to you,
Like you are my sole hope to be alive.
I worshipped the ground you walked on
Surrendering every cell of my being
Walking barefoot on the smoldering fire,
I laid myself bare on the altar
Of the cult of love,
Only to be sacrificed by my own god.
