Devil in the Room

Convent concealing sin, sheltering my abyss Trapped inside, a starved soul Devoured whole youth's innocence Shadows stalk and stir me from a dream They haunt, they leave their mark on me They pull me in, pull me in Won't you just let me forget? Your secret is safe, I'll take it to the grave Bury it, bury it next to me In silence I cave while you keep your peace It's killing me, it's killing me What's sacred between these walls Between these walls What's sacred between these walls? The lives you touch, the life you took There's something sacred between these walls - Not just the word you lost We swallow the past, whatever truth that it holds I know you know the devil in the room - The devil in the room They pull me in, pull me in Won't you just let me forget? Your secret is safe, I'll take it to the grave Bury it, bury it next to me In silence I cave while you keep your peace It's killing me, it's killing me What's sacred between these walls? It's killing me, it's killing me The lives you touch, the life you took It's killing me, it's killing me
