LYRIC FOR SALE

By R.F.Sinclair

Verse 1
You crowned me with your silver doubt
Lit your faith, then snuffed it out
You liked me meek till I found my flame
Now I’m the prayer that won’t behave
Your rosary swings, I hum along
Every sin becomes a song
Pre-Chorus
You wanted mercy ,I gave you might
Now you flinch when I turn to light
Chorus
I’m your Broken Mary, barefoot and wild
Saint of the sinner, mother of denial
You call it grace, I call it war
You kneel, I don’t anymore
I’m your Broken Mary, still divine
Halo cracked but the glow’s still mine
Verse 2
You built your faith on my restraint
But every savior learns to taint
You wanted quiet ,I gave you sound
Now I’m the gospel underground
You kiss the guilt, I wear the crown
And every fall still counts as found
Pre-Chorus
You wanted peace , gave you proof
That heaven’s just a point of view
Chorus
I’m your Broken Mary, barefoot and wild
Saint of the sinner, mother of denial
You call it grace, I call it war
You kneel, I don’t anymore
I’m your Broken Mary, still divine
Halo cracked but the glow’s still mine
Bridge
My lips are wine, my hands are clay
I turn your nights to holy days
You wanted faith , I gave you flame
Now every whisper sounds like my name
Final Chorus
I’m your Broken Mary, born from ache
The god you made but couldn’t take
You call it sin, I call it art
You paint the cross, I play the part
I’m your Broken Mary, still divine
Your faith was yours, but the fire’s mine
Outro
Bless the storm, forget the sky
Even saints get to defy
