(How Do I) Make The Devil Fall Asleep

The mausoleums fall, and there's a murder in the choir My confidence has failed me and I'm burnt out of desire A shadow of myself, maybe I'll go out with a smile They took something that night And what grew instead was vile Saw the light leave her eyes as they dilate To the solemn sound of her heartbreak You can't rely on lullabies When evil lives outside What's the point of giving when they just take? When they get what they want and they don't blink It's your demise that's televised So learn your lesson And I return to the dark (Sink deeper down in disgrace Another falling from grace) Help me out of the dark (Is it too late to make the devil fall asleep?) The congregations blind to all the riches on the pyre The neighborhood is hurting and the suffering are tired (My body's weak, mind is burnt out So hollow) Black dog stalks and lingers in doubt I'm not making parole for soul And I return to the dark (Sink deeper down in disgrace Another falling from grace) Help me out of the dark (Is it too late to make the devil fall asleep?) Lie with me, I'm yours I'm undone These darkest parts take hold Be gentle The midnight won't console The midnight won't console The midnight won't console Stained glass virtue will haunt you Stained glass virtue will haunt you Please burn all my tissues and press upon this bruise Pleasure yourself to my death on the news (Payment of pain is forgetting your name The corporation's taken again and again and again)
