Crown of Velvet

Verse 1

Midnight oil and velvet skin

I wear the dark like armor

Crown of thorns won't hold me in

I'm the storm that begs for more

Temple built of honeyed sin

Every glance a holy war

Come and kneel but don't come in

Unless you're ready for the fall

Pre-Chorus

I am the altar

I am the flame

Oh you want to worship

Oh you want the pain

Chorus

Seductress goddesses

We rule the sacred night

Seductress goddesses

We swallow up the light

Bite the apple take the vine

Every goddess has her time

Seductress goddesses

We don't forgive we don't forget

Verse 2

Lipstick scar across the moon

Heels that click like thunder

My magic is my truth

And your weakness pulls you under

Silk and steel upon my thighs

Watch me burn the quiet

Queen of hunger queen of lies

Baby this is righteous riot

Pre-Chorus

I am the altar

I am the flame

Oh you want to worship

Oh you want the pain

Chorus

Seductress goddesses

We rule the sacred night

Seductress goddesses

We swallow up the light

Bite the apple take the vine

Every goddess has her time

Seductress goddesses

We don't forgive we don't forget

Bridge

We were painted as the wicked

Called us witches called us whores

But the garden that they planted

Grew our thorns and grew our power

Hear us roar

Hear us roar

Hear us holler at the tower

Chorus

Seductress goddesses

We rule the sacred night

Seductress goddesses

We swallow up the light

Bite the apple take the vine

Every goddess has her time

Seductress goddesses

We don't forgive we don't forget

Hook

Rise up rise up

Daughter of the dark

Rise up rise up

We make our mark
