beatifully damned worth burning for

They called our love forbidden.
They called it shame.
They called it a sin.
Our families turned their backs on us.
The world prayed for our end.
Even heaven seemed to close its gates.

But no one ever asked what it felt like to spend a lifetime trapped inside a borrowed life...
breathing with someone else's lungs,
smiling with someone else's face,
living by someone else's choices.

In a life that was never mine...
you were the only thing that truly belonged to me.

So if loving you is a sin...
Then let them hate us.
Let them condemn us.
Let history remember us as sinners.

Because losing heaven could never frighten me...

The only hell I have ever known...

...was a world without you.

"The only hell I have ever known... was a world without you."
