letra de wedding dance at the end of the world - nine aetharia

Loading...

i’ve got temptation stuck on the roof of my mouth
the taste of it bitter and foul
trading salvation for brimstone and fire
holding onto your name like a prayer

oh, how easy to scorn adam in the garden
to place blame on his shoulders for sin
when perhaps all he did was devotion
eyes wide open
running straight for the end

do you know that i love you enough to fall?
i’d look back
i’d confess
i would risk it all

i’d surrender all that i am at your call
on your altar, i’d lay my own soul

your memory in the gaps
between my t–th
within my lungs
under the floorboards
right above my feverish heart

keep this vow like a scar
an evеr-fixed mark
yours and yours and yours through peace and war
oh, how еasy to scorn orpheus for weakness
as if love was so paltry and weak
when all he did was lay bare devoutness
when to tragedy, his word he would keep

do you know that i love you enough to fall?
i’d look back
i’d confess
i would risk it all

i’d surrender all that i am at your call
on your altar, i’d lay my own soul

but i yearn
oh, i hunger
i dream of a love

white-knuckled
hand over heart
knees to the earth, and eyes above

a love that’s ravenous and demanding
and i’m skinned by t–th and tongue
by crowns of th-rns
and whispered prayers
the stained glass where faith is hung
just as you are and as i am
whether witnessed by god or man
we kiss our vows and take our hands
to new beginnings or to the end

for there’s a love as strong as death
that drowns you in its stormy depths
and it’s the only place i’ve ever found rest

love, i know that there’s nothing that i can do
the world turns, ever indifferent
to what we have to lose

so i’ll wrap myself tight around your heart like a noose
to the end of the world
take this “i love you”

and please know that i love you enough to fall
i’d look back
i’d confess
i would risk it all

i’d surrender all that i am at your call
on your altar, i’ve laid my own soul
