Intro

Verse 1
A devil in a midnight mass,
He prayed behind stained glass
A memory of Sunday class
Resurrected from the past
Refrain 1
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
Silent night at the
edge of your knife
(Forgive me father)
Won't make it right
Silent night for
the rest of my life
Silent night at the
edge of your knife
-- (hold)
(You're guilty!)
Post Chorus: -- x2
Verse 2
A devil in a midnight mass
Killed the boy inside the man
The holy water in his hands
Can never wash away his sins
Refrain 2
Hold your breath
and count to four
Pinky swears don't
work no more
Put my trust in
God that day
Not the man that got his way
I was alive but now I'm singing
(Repeat Chorus)
Breakdown
-- x4
Outro
Whisper whisper
don't make a sound
Your bed is made and
it's in the ground
(Repeat x6)
