"Seven Devils" lyrics - FLORENCE + THE MACHINE
Holy water cannot help me
A thousand armies couldn't keep me out
I don't want your money, I don't want your crown
See I have come to burn your kingdom down
Holy water cannot help you now
See I've got to burn your kingdom down
And no rivers and no lakes can put the fire out
I'm gonna raise the stakes, I'm gonna smoke you out
Seven devils all around me
Seven devils in my house
See they were there when I woke up this morning
I'll be dead before the day is done
Seven devils all around you
Seven devils in your house
See I was dead when I woke up this morning
And I'll be dead before the day is done
Before the day is done
And now all your love will be exorcised
And we will find you saints to be canonised
And it's an evensong
It's a melody
It's a final cry
It's a symphony
Seven devils all around me
Seven devils in my house
See they were there when I woke up this morning
And I'll be dead before the day is done
Seven devils all around you
Seven devils in your house
See I was dead when I woke up this morning
And I'll be dead before the day is done
Before the day is done
Before the day is done
Before the day is done
You can keep me alive
Till I tear the walls
Till I save your heart
And to take your soul
What have we done?
Can I be undone?
In the evil's heart
In the evil's soul
Seven devils all around you
Seven devils in your house
See I was dead when I woke up this morning
And I'll be dead before the day is done
For the day is done
