We married where the sun won’t go, in lace and ash and undertow. The kiss was soft— a silent scream. I kept you close inside a dream. The vow we made wasn't divine. It only said: You're always mine.
Lyrics
We stood in silence Veiled in black I said “I do” You never looked back The altar cracked Beneath my knees But vows don’t break From memories You kissed my hand But not my name The chapel burned But stayed the same In the Chapel of Forever We bled into the pews I wore you like a secret The kind no one would choose A kiss like cold confession A promise made in rust In the Chapel of Forever Love is built from dust No priest, no light Just candle smoke Your vow was sharp A sacred choke You spoke in tongues I understood That even pain Could still mean good I said “for always” You said “until” The stained glass cried But we stood still In the Chapel of Forever We bled into the pews I wore you like a secret The kind no one would choose A kiss like cold confession A promise made in rust In the Chapel of Forever Love is built from dust What kind of vow Survives a grave? What kind of love Still begs, still stays? In the Chapel of Forever You haunt me in my dress This altar holds our silence Like a holy, aching mess I burned my name beside you In stone that couldn’t cry In the Chapel of Forever Even ghosts still say goodbye
