[Verse 1]
Holding on to you like broken glass
Every touch cuts deeper than the last
I know I should leave
But it feels so good to bleed
Poison kisses lock us in this cage
Our lives got twisted in this masquerade
I can't seem to shake this incurable need
This endless addiction I feed

[Chorus]
Angels on fire
They fall from the sky
Heaven and hell will be burning tonight
Covered in ashes I cry out your name
And out of the flames
We will rise again

[Verse 2]
Run in to the shadows where we hide
Bodies tender as our worlds collide
Nothing is sacred and everything s wrong
But you and I keep holding on

[Chorus]

[Bridge]
No temptation is my sin
Not my darkest deepest whim

[Chorus][x2]
