Beautiful Breaking

[Intro Instrumental] [Verse 1] You came dressed in mercy

With ruin in your hands

You promised me heaven

Then buried all the plans

I followed your whisper

Through gardens made of grief

You smiled like salvation

Then stole away belief

[Pre-Chorus] I saw the fire behind your eyes

Still reached for light inside your lies

[Chorus] You are the halo full of thorns

The prayer that leaves me torn

The angel I should never trust

The love that turns my faith to dust

You lift me up to let me fall

Then call my breaking beautiful

I hear your wings above my fear

But heaven never lived in here

[Verse 2] You kissed every fracture

Then opened every scar

You told me I was chosen

While pulling me apart

I kept your confession

Like scripture in my chest

But every holy promise

Was poison dressed its best

[Pre-Chorus] I felt the truth beneath your skin

A perfect mask with rot within

[Chorus] You are the halo full of thorns

The prayer that leaves me torn

The angel I should never trust

The love that turns my faith to dust

You lift me up to let me fall

Then call my breaking beautiful

I hear your wings above my fear

But heaven never lived in here

[Bridge] I wanted saving

You wanted control

I gave you silence

You swallowed me whole

Now I am waking

From all that you were

No sacred ending

No miracle cure

[Final Chorus] You are the halo full of thorns

The storm behind the mourning horns

The saint who taught my soul to rust

The vow that scattered into dust

You raised me high to watch me crawl

Then named my sorrow beautiful

I leave your wings, I leave your fear

Because heaven never lived in here [Outro - Fade]
