Look at me now
The halo's still burning
But I'm not afraid of the fire anymore

There's smoke dancing underneath the ceiling
Gold on my skin, but nothing here is holy
I hear the ghosts of who I used to be
Whispering that I should get down on my knees

But I don't pray like I used to
I don't beg for a sign
I found something dangerous
When I stopped asking why

There's a flame around my body
There's a fever in my blood
Maybe I was never meant for heaven
Maybe heaven wasn't enough

I can feel it getting closer
I can hear the angels scream
Every rule I ever followed
Is dissolving in the heat

I'm wearing a burning halo
Fire above my head
Dancing with my demons
Like they're lovers in my bed

I'm wearing a burning halo
Watch it turn to gold
If I'm going down tonight
I'm going down beautiful

Burning halo
Burning halo
I don't need it to be pure

Burning halo
Burning halo
I don't need to be cured

Oh-oh, let it burn
Oh-oh, let it glow
If you came here for an angel
Baby, you should go

Oh-oh, let it burn
Oh-oh, let it shine
The halo's on fire
And the fire is mine

I used to hide the parts you called sinful
Now I put them underneath the spotlight
Every scar is a piece of my history
Every shadow makes the diamonds look brighter

I've kissed the edge of temptation
I've tasted what I couldn't name
And every time I lost control
I found another side of me to claim

Don't tell me I'm too reckless
Don't tell me I'm too much
I've spent my whole life shrinking
Just to make somebody comfortable

I can feel it getting closer
I can hear the angels scream
Every rule I ever followed
Is dissolving in the heat

I'm wearing a burning halo
Fire above my head
Dancing with my demons
Like they're lovers in my bed

I'm wearing a burning halo
Watch it turn to gold
If I'm going down tonight
I'm going down beautiful

Burning halo
Burning halo
I don't need it to be pure

Burning halo
Burning halo
I don't need to be cured

Maybe I'm a contradiction
Maybe that's the point
A little bit of heaven
With a little bit of noise

I can be the sinner
I can be divine
I can break the rules
And still look you in the eyes

You wanted something perfect
I gave you something real
You wanted me on my knees
I learned how to kneel
Only when I wanted to

Burn
Burn
Burn
Let the gold melt down my skin
Let the fire rewrite my name

No more halos
No more hiding
No more asking to be saved
I am not your angel
I am the fire

I'm wearing a burning halo
Fire above my head
Dancing with my demons
Like they're lovers in my bed

I'm wearing a burning halo
Watch it turn to gold
If I'm going down tonight
I'm going down beautiful

Burning halo
Burning halo
I don't need it to be pure

Burning halo
Burning halo
I don't need to be cured

Oh-oh, let it burn
Oh-oh, let it glow
If you came here for an angel
Baby, you should go

Oh-oh, let it burn
Oh-oh, let it shine
The halo's on fire
And the fire is mine

The crown is broken
The throne is empty
The halo is burning
And somehow
I'm glowing
