[Verse 1] A devil in a midnight ma** He preyed behind stained gla** A memory of Sunday cla** Resurrected from the past [Pre-Chorus] 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 “Forgive me, Father” won't make it right Silent night for the rest of my life Silent night at the edge of your knife You're guilty! [Verse 2] A devil in a midnight ma** k**ed the boy inside the man
The holy water in his hands Can never wash away his sins [Pre-Chorus] 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 taught his way 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 “Forgive me, Father” won't make it right Silent night for the rest of my life Silent night at the edge of your knife You're guilty! [Outro] x6 Whisper, whisper, don't make a sound Your bed is made, it's in the ground
