Track 1: Kingdom of Sin

Lyrics by Gemma Ford from Vow of Fire (Blood & Vows: Book 1)

Track 1

Black roses on the dashboard,
city lights dripping gold,
Everybody says you’re poison,
But I was born to drink the cold.

Your name hangs over my doorway,
Like a prayer and a loaded gun,
I should run when I see your shadow,
Instead I chase where the darkness comes.

They call you a villain,
I call you mine,
Every red flag looks holy
Under midnight skies.

So pull me into your kingdom of sin,
Lock every door and let the chaos in,
If loving you is a crime,
Then carve your name into mine,
We’re the fire, we’re the flood,
We’re the diamonds in the blood.

And I know this story won’t end clean,
But forever’s never felt so real to me,
Let the saints look away,
Let the heavens cave in,
I’ll wear your crown
In this kingdom of sin.
In this kingdom of sin.

Velvet smoke and broken promises,
Marble halls and alibis,
You kiss me like a confession,
Then disappear before daylight.

Everybody wants your empire,
Nobody sees the scars beneath,
I traced every one with trembling fingers,
Now your ghosts belong to me.

The world keeps talking,
We don’t care,
We’re two bad decisions
Breathing the same air.

So pull me into your kingdom of sin,
Lock every door and let the chaos in,
If loving you is a crime,
Then carve your name into mine,
We’re the fire, we’re the flood,
We’re the diamonds in the blood.

And I know this story won’t end clean,
But forever’s never felt so real to me,
Let the saints look away,
Let the heavens cave in,
I’ll wear your crown
In this kingdom of sin.
In this kingdom of sin.

Maybe we’re the curse,
Maybe we’re the storm,
Maybe every warning sign
Was leading me home.

If the night comes hunting,
If the walls fall down,
I’ll still be standing
With your shadow wrapped around me now.

Pull me into your kingdom of sin,
Where every ending feels like it could begin,
If the world burns tonight,
We’ll be dancing in the light,
Like legends, like ghosts,
Like a secret nobody knows.

Let the saints look away,
Let the heavens cave in,
I’ll wear your crown
In this kingdom of sin.
