Vigil

A vigil, from the Latin vigilia meaning wakefulness (Greek: pannychis, παννυχίς or agrypnia ἀγρυπνία), is a period of purposeful sleeplessness, an occasion for devotional watching, or an observance. The Italian word vigilia has become generalized in this sense and means "eve" (as in on the eve of the war). more »

I can't seem to get out of my head
Wish my brain was rotting instead
The devil has put his hands on me
I feel like burning in Hell for the thrill

The ground beneath my feet is not what I thought
I created this prison for myself

The demons are all now my friends
A reprieve? I'll take the heat instead
Don't wait for me. I deserve to be here
Deep in this darkness, surrounded by fear

I don't ever plan to break free
From this place where I rot in peace
The chance to leave I would not take
Peeling off my skin, your touch I cannot shake
My soul should be burned with haste
What's been done can't be taken back
I don't want to live with the weight of the world because your mind went black
You just took what you thought was yours
I see you, vespertine

The ground beneath my feet is not what I thought
I am the one who keeps me here

I assumed your consequence. Torturing myself the way you deserve
Hell is not enough punishment for you
