Penance Lyrics - Device - 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 inside 

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
