I traced your name in the soot on the chapel door
You held your breath like a knife against the floor
The candles bent in the draft like they knew our crime
We kept our hands in the dark, one pulse at a time
And the night leaned in
Said, "Stay with me"
Hear the iron gates
Come loose for me
We were built for the fall
Built to burn through the skin
Now the cracks in the wall
Let the cold rush in
Ashes on the veil
Ashes on the veil
We kiss the ruin well
We kiss the ruin well
Take my hand, don't fail
Take my hand, don't fail
We rise, we break, we bleed
We rise, we break, we bleed
Your black coat on the stairs still smells like rain
My rings hit the sink like a chain of pain
The mirror kept our ghosts in a silver grin
I saw your mouth say "run," then you pulled me in
And the night leaned in
Said, "Stay with me"
Hear the iron gates
Come loose for me
We were built for the fall
Built to burn through the skin
Now the cracks in the wall
Let the cold rush in
Ashes on the veil
Ashes on the veil
We kiss the ruin well
We kiss the ruin well
Take my hand, don't fail
Take my hand, don't fail
We rise, we break, we bleed
We rise, we break, we bleed
Low bones, cold stone
Hear the dark
Come close
Broken light
On our throats
Keep the spark
Keep it mean
If we disappear
Let it sing
Let it sing
Ashes on the veil
Ashes on the veil
We kiss the ruin well
We kiss the ruin well
Take my hand, don't fail
Take my hand, don't fail
We rise, we break, we bleed
We rise, we break, we bleed
