Penance

Penance - Device
.
In the perfect dark, a botticellian angel exists
The elusive partner puts her key in my hand
A fairly simple gesture, shrouded in evil
As she distorts, it becomes easy to understand
Lost in her piercing eyes
As everything around me, dies
.
Well, can you make the nightmares go away
Can you pull the demon from inside?
Will penance make the nightmares go away
And save me from this endless night?
.
In the choking dark, I try to move, I'm unable
A hundred thousand moving creatures, tickle my flesh
I feel the heat, it's getting harder to breathe...
I feel the panic taking hold, for I'm beginning to understand.
The only way I'll be saved
Is if someone breaks into my grave
.
Well, can you make the nightmares go away
Can you pull the demon from inside?
Will penance make the nightmares go away
And save me from this endless night?
.
Don't need it, don't want it
No more sedation, no more sedation
Don't need it, don't want it
Eradicate this endless aching
.
Don't need it, don't want it
No more sedation, no more sedation
Don't need it, don't want it
Eradicate this endless aching inside
.
Well, can you make the nightmares go away
Can you pull the demon from inside?
Will penance make the nightmares go away
And save me from this endless night?
.
Well, can you make the nightmares go away
Can you pull the demon from inside?
Will penance make the nightmares go away
And save me from this dreadful night?
