Your name is a razor in the back of my throat
In the style of progressive metal, ambient mixed a bit with the band "gothic rock, love metal"

Lyrics
Your name is a razor in the back of my throat
A velvet apocalypse wrapped in a note
I kissed your shadow, it tasted like sin
A cathedral collapsing beneath my skin
Black roses blooming where your heartbeat slept
I carved our vows where the angels wept
Every touch was a funeral hymn
And I’d die forever just to die with you again
(Pre-Chorus)
Oh, we were gasoline and holy wine
A sacred curse in a valentine
(Chorus)
I’d burn the world for love, let the heavens rust
Turn every dream into ash and dust
If your lips were the match and my heart the flame
I’d set fire to God in your sweet, dark name
We were infinity wrapped in a scar
Now I’m bleeding starlight from a fallen star
I’d burn the world for love—
Just to feel you in my arms
(Verse 2)
Your eyes were a requiem dressed in blue
A suicide sky I gladly flew into
We danced on graves of what we’d become
Two loaded hearts and a smoking gun
I drank your tears like a poisoned prayer
Swore I saw forever trembling there
But forever cracked like a broken crown
And heaven went down when you let me down
(Pre-Chorus)
Oh, we were fever and crucifix
A fatal kiss no soul could fix
(Chorus)
I’d burn the world for love, let the angels scream
Drown every star in a shattered dream
If your touch was the blade and my soul the art
I’d carve your name through my dying heart
We were paradise dipped in tar
Now I’m haunted by who we are
I’d burn the world for love—
Just to feel you in my arms
(Bridge)
Ashes falling like snow tonight
I see your face in the firelight
If loving you is my last sin
Then let the end of days begin
I’d strike the match with trembling hands
Watch it swallow these broken lands
Because without you, the world is dust—
And all I have is this violent love
(Final Chorus)
I burned the world for love, watched it glow
A funeral pyre for what we know
If your ghost is the only spark
I’ll light the dark till it tears apart
We were forever, we were a lie
Two black hearts in a blood-red sky
I burned the world for love—
And still, you said goodbye
(Outro)
So let it burn…
Let it burn…
Love was the match—
And I was the world.
