Magdaleine de Lioncourt - Ambrosia

All the preachers at the old church say
That Heaven comes to the ones who wait
But if I am waiting for a God in vain
I think i'd rather die than wait to be saved

He told me that I could taste so sweet
It was like I was a nectar he could never eat
Like my name was Ambrosia
It was like my name was Ambrosia

I attract malice the same way moths are drawn to flames
I'm just a thirsty spider in your web of lies
Tangled by goodness, I look at you with utter shame
But I am no victim, you are just a fly

You can try to forge a weapon against me
But there's nothing you can do that can set yourself free
Martyrs and men have sacrificed for you and I
Cast me into flames with every black and white lie

Can you save me from the light shining up ahead?
Don't take me now, I'm too young, I don't wanna go yet
Your arms are the safest place that I have ever been
But this is the price for all of my perfect sin

Cause you were just a slick devil, I sold to you my eyes
With your silver tongue, you promised me a life
Good womb birthed a bad son, to life you shall owe
But like a silk Columbine flower, you'll never grow old

All that glitters is not considered purity
A good girl's worth based off of her chastity

Now I lay you down to sleep
Blood and gold, I shall always receive
If you shall die before I wake
I pray to Kali, your soul shall quake

You can try to forge a weapon against me
But there's nothing you can do that can set yourself free
Martyrs and men have sacrificed for you and I
Cast me into flames with every black and white lie

Can you save me from the light shining up ahead?
Don't take me now, I'm too young, I don't wanna go yet
Your arms are the safest place that I have ever been
But this is the price for all of my perfect sin

Tie the noose around my long lost virginity
I'll never be a girl again, my womanhood is forever free
So don't come close to me, I'll tear your throat away
Like I did with the other men who became my prey

Yeshua, come save me from my sins
God doesn't love me enough
