nine aetharia - you body is a graveyard lyrics

[verse 1]
their hands are all over my face and my eyes
their fingers around my throat
their lips rasping sighs
they say
darling, you look so divine ~
every single one’s screaming: won’t you be mine?

silver and gold they have placed in my hands
diamonds and misery truly are girl’s best friend
stuck in a dollhouse of lies ~
we decompose in plain sight
{pre+chorus]
i am maria
i am a god
i am creature starved of love and blood
i am most holy
i am a wh0re
i am whatever they’ve brought me here for

[chorus]
my heart is a crossroads
they’ll promise me anything
if i make the world just so
my heart is an altar
they’ll worship me wretchedly
if i offer them all hope
my heart is a graveyard
they’ll bury things assured that it’s where they’re meant to stay
my heart is a graveyard
they don’t ask what i want, they just do things their way

[verse 2]
don’t be so horrified
chin up, my dear
family knows best
and family knows fear
lovers will swear on your soul ~
sell it down the river
for fortune untold
[pre+chorus]
i am madonna
i am desire
i am a corpse made of maggots and wire
i am an angel
i am a bride
i am anathema for wounded pride

[chorus]
my body is a crossroads
they’ll promise me anything
if i make the world just so
my body is an altar
they’ll worship me wretchedly
if i offer them all hope
my body is a graveyard
they’ll bury things assured that it’s where they’re meant to stay
my body is a graveyard
they don’t ask for forgiveness, they just do things their way

[bridge}
if i d+mn myself, will i be saved?
does power equal freedom, or am i doomed anyway?
if i ruin my own life, does it make it okay?
is my peace found in one final shame?
[chorus]
your body is a graveyard
their hands breaking bones
smearing sinew and tar
your body is a graveyard
your chest is a cage for their madness and war
your body is a graveyard
beloved by sorrow
favored by the death knells
your body is a graveyard
in unholy love and matrimony with h+ll
