"God Behind Your Eyes" lyrics

"God Behind Your Eyes"

She came in shadows laced with light
A hymn composed in black and white
Forbidden fruit with sacred skin
A temple carved in mortal sin

And though I knew I shouldn't kneel
Her voice became the way I heal
A whispered prayer with my last breath
She kissed me back to life from death

You are the fire in my frost
The echo in a world I'd lost
Divine and cruel, you draw me in
A saint beneath the veil of sin
We rise as one, we fall as none
Two flames that burn into the sun
I found my god behind your eyes
A love the stars would envy twice

You wear the moon like it's your crown
And turn my marrow into stone
A siren dressed in seraph's gold
Your lips rewrite what I was told

You haunt the corners of my doubt
Where angels weep and demons shout
But with you, I am more than man
A sovereign in your master plan

You are the fire in my frost
The echo in a world I'd lost
Divine and cruel, you draw me in
A saint beneath the veil of sin
We rise as one, we fall as none
Two flames that burn into the sun
I found my god behind your eyes
A love the stars would envy twice

I'd break the heavens just to bleed
A little more for you to see
You sanctify my every scar
Illuminate just who we are

You are the fire in my frost
The echo in a world I'd lost
Divine and cruel, you draw me in
A saint beneath the veil of sin
We rise as one, we fall as none
Two flames that burn into the sun
I found my god behind your eyes
A love the stars would envy twice
