Sacred Trouble

Kneeling in silence
Your shadow feels like prayer
But every time I touch you
I'm sinning everywhere
Candles burn like secrets
Our bodies never lie
If heaven doesn’t want us
We’ll build our own tonight

Whispers on my lips
Forbidden in my chest
If loving you is wrong
I don’t wanna confess

You’re my sacred trouble
Holy fire, sinful kiss
In the dark we’re faithful
To a love they’ll never bless
Turn this church to rubble
Let the angels watch us fall
If this love is blasphemy
I’ll worship you through it all

Stained glass in pieces
They can’t reflect my truth
They preach about salvation
But my salvation’s you
Every prayer I'm breaking
Turns louder in my skin
If sin is what they call us
Then let the sin begin

Whispers on my lips
Forbidden in my chest
If loving you is wrong
I don’t wanna confess

You’re my sacred trouble
Holy fire, sinful kiss
In the dark we’re faithful
To a love they’ll never bless
Turn this church to rubble
Let the angels watch us fall
If this love is blasphemy
I’ll worship you through it all

Amen, amen
We’re holy in our sin
Amen, amen
Let the trouble begin
Amen, amen
We’re holy in our sin
Amen, amen
Let the trouble begin

You’re my sacred trouble
Holy fire, sinful kiss
In the dark we’re faithful
To a love they’ll never bless
Turn this church to rubble
Let the angels watch us fall
If this love is blasphemy
I’ll worship you through it all
