Blood Oath in the Crossroads

Neon crosses on the alley wall,
Saints with halos cracked and torn.
I walk between the bells and bones,
Where prayers are sharp and faith is sworn.

Silver burns upon my skin,
Old gods whisper through the wire.
The city hums a heretic hymn,
I kneel in ash, I rise in fire.

Name me sinner, name me saint,
I wear both crowns, I bear the brand.
In sacred dark I draw the line,
Blood remembers what words can’t stand.

Blood oath at the crossroads,
Holy sin in the night.
I howl with the angels,
I bite with the bite of the light.
Blood oath at the crossroads,
No heaven without the scars.
I pray with my teeth bared,
Under broken, burning stars.

Candles flicker like loaded guns,
Latin echoes in my veins.
Every miracle has a cost,
Every blessing tastes of chains.
Bridge
If salvation needs a monster,
I will wear the sacred mask.
If the truth demands my shadow,
I will bleed and never ask.
Final Chorus
Blood oath at the crossroads,
Wolf’s hymn carved in my chest.
I walk the line of angels,
But the beast knows me best.
Outro
Amen in the moonlight,
Amen with a snarl.
Faith is sharp as a silver blade,
And mercy is feral and dark.
