Gentle Devil

[Verse 1] You drape yourself in immaculate white linen

A delicate martyr weeping beneath the moonlight

Anointing your skin with the fragrance of innocence

While you quietly pour venom into every open wound

The world beholds a fragile guardian, a porcelain saint

Grieving for the hollow shell you slowly manufactured

They cannot perceive the invisible iron collar

Nor the slow, methodical strangulation of my sanity

You weaponize soft affection, anointing every chain with grace

Transforming devotion into a gilded torture chamber

[Chorus] You wear your purity like a loaded gun,

drowning my mind in your suffocating poison.

The saintly martyr with blood on the teeth,

building my coffin out of gentle concern.

You play the victim while you hold the leash!

[Verse 2] A single drop of salt from your eye rewrites reality

Casting me into the darkness as the hideous tormentor

You retreat into soft frailty, a master of deception

Executing my freedom while the audience weeps for you

A tyrant draped in silk, a parasite carved of marble

Smothering my voice beneath the weight of fake compassion

You twist my memories until I doubt my own perception

Building an inescapable vault out of gentle whispers

No warmth lives inside your calculated mercy

Only a predator feeding on my gradual decay

[Chorus] You wear your purity like a loaded gun,

drowning my mind in your suffocating poison.

The saintly martyr with blood on the teeth,

building my coffin out of gentle concern.

You play the victim while you hold the leash!

[Bridge] Rewrite the shadows

Dissolve the truth

Reborn as a saint

Rewrite the shadows

Rewrite the shadows

[Verse 3] Tearing away the pristine veil of your false purity

Revealing the crawling decay hiding beneath the altar

You laid waste to my identity and christened it sanctuary

building my coffin out of gentle concern.

You play the victim while you hold the leash!

Rewrite the shadows

[Chorus] You wear your purity like a loaded gun,

drowning my mind in your suffocating poison.

The saintly martyr with blood on the teeth,

building my coffin out of gentle concern.

You play the victim while you hold the leash!
