Strike the demons to the ground
From the spire hear the sound
Say your prayers any Sunday morning
Think of Heaven and eternal life
By the dawn and when the night is falling
Any sermon, any resting moment
By the clock we pray the dark away
By the dusk and when desire calling
No (no) ten thousand prayers in exile
I said no (no) graves cannot build our last empire
I said no prayer at midnight
I said no prayer at midnight
For the first of us survive
Never get to unattend the sermon
For the mass is what you can't betray
Any given day we praise the Lord
Say the credo in your final hour
We remember all the rats who say
May your body rest in peace and prayer
No (no) break out of sainted holy fire
I said no (no) wait for the end on burning pyre
No (no) prayer at midnight
No (no) prayer can testify
I said no (no) prayer at midnight
No (no) prayer at midnight
No (no) prayer can testify
I said no (no) prayer at midnight
For the first of us survive
No (no) prayer at midnight
No (no) prayer can testify
I said no (no) prayer at midnight
No (no) prayer at midnight
No (no) prayer can testify
I said no (no) prayer at midnight
For the first of us survive
