champion of the damned
Should you truly be unworthy of love
Of god, no less
Then your unworthiness would make me a fool
To grant myself the authority to adore you
And if the hand of God would smite me for loving you
May His blow be swifter than the cruel, unforgiving blade of man
I myself am unworthy of the kingdom
Even more so because I turn from the light of my maker
What more, then
What more wretched unworthiness would seep
From the cracks of our shattered mortal flesh
But if I should champion the damned
Let it be not because I killed or was untrue
Let it be because I chose to love you
You who say you are unworthy
Let it be because I tore a hole in the edge of heaven
And tried, with my sinful hands, to bring the kingdom to the weary
I will love the unworthy in their homes of thorn
And I will pay the price in paradise
Of god, no less
Then your unworthiness would make me a fool
To grant myself the authority to adore you
And if the hand of God would smite me for loving you
May His blow be swifter than the cruel, unforgiving blade of man
I myself am unworthy of the kingdom
Even more so because I turn from the light of my maker
What more, then
What more wretched unworthiness would seep
From the cracks of our shattered mortal flesh
But if I should champion the damned
Let it be not because I killed or was untrue
Let it be because I chose to love you
You who say you are unworthy
Let it be because I tore a hole in the edge of heaven
And tried, with my sinful hands, to bring the kingdom to the weary
I will love the unworthy in their homes of thorn
And I will pay the price in paradise
