Confess Me Tonight

I knelt before the holy light

But saw your shadow in the flame

They taught me fear, they taught me wrong

But my desire speaks your name

You are my temptation, my sweetest sin

Every prayer breaks when you breathe me in

Confess me tonight, don't turn away

Your touch is the truth I was taught to betray

My faith in you is stronger than the curse

If loving you is heaven

Then heaven hurts

I've kissed the cross, I've bled belief

I've sworn my soul to higher ground

But every vow I gave the sky

Fell to its knees when you were found

They promise light beyond desire

But you are my sacred fire

Confess me tonight, whisper my name

Your lips undo all guilt and shame

My faith in you is stronger than the curse

If loving you is heaven

Then heaven hurts

Let the bells cry out my fall

Let the angels close their eyes

I'd trade salvation, crown and grace

For one true moment in your light

Confess me tonight, body and soul

I'm losing control - and I choose to fall

You are my faith, my blasphemy, my truth

My religion ends and starts with you

My faith in you is stronger than the curse

If loving you is heaven

Then heaven burns
