Devil In A Midnight Mass

A devil in a midnight mass,

He prayed behind stained glass

A memory of Sunday class

Resurrected from the past

Hold your breath and count to four

Pinky swears don't work no more

Footsteps down the hallway floor

Getting closer to my door

I was alive but now I'm singing

[Chorus:]

Silent night for the rest of my life

Silent night for the rest of my life

Violent knight at the edge of your knife

Guilty, guilty... won't make it right

Silent night for the rest of my life

Silent night at the edge of your knife

(You're guilty!)

A devil in a midnight mass,

the temple he just passed.

Attempt a dozen hits,

Can never wash away his sins

I was told that the world wouldn't believe me.

In the cold, sinners world, tried to see them.

Mother nature, Sister fear.

A place called Hell is close to here.

Put my trust in God that day,

not the man that taught his way.

I was alive, but now I'm singin'

[Chorus]

[Whispered]

Whisper, whisper, don't make a sound.

Your bed is made and it's in the ground [x2]

[Screamed]

Whisper, whisper, don't make a sound.

Your bed is made and it's in the ground [x4]
