Additional Lyrics:
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

Prechorus 2
Hold you breathe and count to 4
Pinky swears don’t work no more
Put my trust in God that day
Not the man who taught his way
I was alive, but now I’m singing

Bridge:
Whisper, don’t make a sound
Your bed is made, and it’s in the ground
