The Dayveil - Sanctuary Lyrics

[Intro]
Sacred walls around me now
But I ain't asking for permission anymore
Found my own salvation somehow
Between these streets of gold and marble floors

[Verse 1]
Standing in this holy place
While memories of home flash through my veins
They call me stranger to my face
But baby, I've built kingdoms from this pain
Your love's my sanctuary, yeah
When these cathedral lights fade away
They don't know where I've been
Or the storms I've seen, no

[Chorus]
In my sanctuary, I reign supreme
Where nobody tells me who to be
Your touch is my liturgy
In this sanctuary, I'm finally free
No need to explain my identity
'Cause baby, you're my ministry

[Verse 2]
Caught between two worlds tonight
My reflection in stained glass windows blur
They say I don't belong here, right?
But every prayer I sing got me this far
Your body's like a temple, girl
Where all my contradictions come undone
They try to judge our love
But we rise above, yeah

[Bridge]
Let them talk their shit
We've got something sacred here
Every kiss a revelation
Every touch brings salvation near
In your arms, I found my truth
Don't need their validation anymore
You're my holy ground
My sacred crown, for sure

[Chorus]
In my sanctuary, I reign supreme
Where nobody tells me who to be
Your touch is my liturgy
In this sanctuary, I'm finally free
No need to explain my identity
'Cause baby, you're my ministry

[Outro]
Sacred walls around me now
But I built this temple in my soul
Found peace in letting go somehow
In this sanctuary, I am whole
