SH1N 4 U

(Intro)

I burned my halo just to see you smile

Cut my wings and crawled a thousand miles

If loving you’s a sin I’ll never undo

I let the dark in –now I shin for you

(Verse 1)

I was golden once, had heaven in my veins

But you touched my soul and rewrote all the pain

They warned me twice, said your love’s a curse

But I read your scars like a holy verse

I bled in silence, you slept in peace

I gave you forever, you gave me “at least”

Every promise cracked when you said my name

Now I’m dancing with the devil in your flame

(Pre-chours)

I felt the light leave my spine

When I chose your hell over mine

If this is wrong I don’t need truth

I’d lose my soul just to shin for you

(Chours)

I shin for you, through the fire and smoke

Every prayer I had is the heart you broke

I shin for you, let the angels fall

I’d rather burn with you than feel nothing at all

Say my name when the sky turns blue

When the night cuts deep and the lies come through

I shin for you –no heaven, no proof

I’d damn myself just to shin for you

(Verse 2)

You wear your sins like diamond chains

Smile so sweet it poisons my veins

I see the knives behind your kiss

Still I lean in, I don’t resist

They call me foolish, say I’m blind

But I see the war behind your eyes

If love’s a crime then lock the door

I’ve crossed that line, I want you more

(Verse 3)

I drowned my past in gasoline

Lit a match where we used to dream

Every truth you never said

Echoes loud inside my head

If I disappear when you let go

I’ll haunt your dark, you should know

I’m not your savior, not your cure

I’m just the one who shin for you

(Pre-chours)

I felt the light leave my spine

When I chose your hell over mine

If this is wrong I don’t need truth

I’d lose my soul just to shin for you

(Chours)

I shin for you, through the fire and smoke

Every prayer I had is the heart you broke

I shin for you, let the angels fall

I’d rather burn with you than feel nothing at all

Say my name when the sky turns blue

When the night cuts deep and the lies come through

I shin for you –no heaven, no proof

I’d damn myself just to shin for you

(Bridge)

If this is love, it’s beautifully cruel

A loaded gun and I pull it for you

I know you’ll leave, I know you’ll lie

Still I’d choose you in every life

Break my crown, erase my truth

There’s nothing left I wouldn’t lose

I don’t need saving, I choose the bruise

Watch me fall –I shin for you

(Outro)

When the lights go out and the world feels new

You’ll hear my voice in the dark you choose

No wings, no God, no perfect view

Just ashes whispering –I shin for you
