You know, as a kid, on Sunday I'd go to church

And say my daily prayers, It's such a blur

Repeating, "Padre nuestro en el cielo santifica-"

Um, how did it go?

And so the padre's talkin', he's doin' his thing

He takes a breath, looks up, and starin' at me, he says

"Holy bunnies, white as snow

Will you promise not to ever roam?"

I don't know when these feelings all began

It seems the Devil and I walked hand-in-hand

And so I'd run and run and run away

Endless circles through a senseless game

I would wait for an answer every night

But the moon stayed silent with its damning light

And so I'd run and run and run away

Feigning solace through a holy fate now

The echoes interlace

Repeating sacred grace to save the misbehaved

A picture-perfect masquerade

Embracing faded pages of tainted saints

"Mi hijito, Dios te quiere

Él sólo quiere protegerte"

A saying I've heard before, adorning covenants

Dear God, I'm bored

We've lost our youth to the night

Left to find reason between every fracture of light

In portraits portraying our lives

Can we redefine what it means to be alive?

If the scripture says it's sin, then let's begin, a dying wish

Although our cards were dealt in blinded bliss

There's hope beyond this lone abyss

Leave bruises on my neck

We won't regret our staggered breaths

I wanna feel your body close, but there's something

Latching to my throat

It's got me

Co- co- co- co- what?

It's got me

Co- co- co- co- what?

Collared

Cheap wine, cheaper praise

Cheap ways to fill my faith

I got a hundred ways to null the pain

Every day the same, still trying to pray, like

"Oye, wey, ¿estás allí? En el cielo tan bello"

Find it hard to believe

Hey, did you run, and run, and run

To shun the only one

Who could have saved us from humanity's sun?

We've lost our youth to the night

Left to find reason between every fracture of light

In portraits portraying our lives

Can we redefine what it means to be alive?

Life isn't up to a God

Our components are sonnets, they're up to us to write

Our memories live on through each line

Can we redefine what they mean?

If the scripture says it's sin, then let's begin a dying wish

Although our cards were dealt in blinded bliss

There's hope beyond this lone abyss

Leave bruises on my neck

We won't regret our staggered breaths

I wanna feel your body close, but there's something

Latching to my throat

I wanna worship you all night

I wanna feel your gentle bite

And if the world wants us to burn

We'll join the stars and watch it turn

I could throw it all away, repeat the prayers I used to pray

But if I hid behind this broken bliss, I'll never know what lies within

Those markings on my neck, I don't regret the nights we spent

I wanna feel your body close, but there's something

Latching to my throat

The scripture says it's sin? Then let's begin this sinner's wish

Although our cards were dealt in blinded bliss

Let's recreate the serpent's kiss

These bruises on my neck, I won't repent, my knees are bent

I wanna hold your body close, just wrap your hands around my throat

They had me

Co- co- co- co- what?

But now I'm

Co- co- co- co- what?

Pull on my

Co- co- co- co- what?

Collar
