Gospel of Dismay
[00:11.15] You joined the underground cabaret today
[00:13.65] Oh hey there, tell me your name
[00:15.65] You try to run and tell the world
[00:16.89] But you're stranded in a darkened cave
[00:19.15] Oh Henry we hate you the same
[00:20.90] So listen up my friend
[00:22.15] There's more that meets the eye
[00:23.65] You power up the studio
[00:25.15] And bring them to life
[00:26.41] Now play the beat that trickles
[00:27.30] Through the halls
[00:28.30] Or else your life is nevermore
[00:29.31] Don't worry chum
[00:30.19] It's not the music that dies
[00:31.44] Now listen up
[00:32.69] Our life support machine
[00:34.19] Was brought to life by remarkable hands
[00:37.69] Forget about the hell we've seen
[00:39.44] The time has come to revive our band
[00:42.19] So bang the drums to a rhythm
[00:43.70] Captivating the beat
[00:44.94] And press the keys on the piano
[00:46.44] For the ritual please
[00:47.44] The song's alive with the night
[00:48.69] With your help we'll revive
[00:50.19] The devil's advocate
[00:51.60] Is staring right through your lies
[00:53.85] You're just returning our old strings tonight
[00:56.84] I hope you turn up the light now
[00:59.10] Can I get an amen in here? (AMEN)
[01:02.35] You see the magic of art
[01:04.84] It would tear you apart if you knew
[01:06.84] Can I get an amen in here? (AMEN)
[01:10.34] This magic is fueled by your heart
[01:12.84] But the dreams in his eyes were untrue He had bigger plans for the band
[01:17.59] By demand
[01:18.59] We came back to his darkened cell
[01:20.84] You're going to break us out of this hell
[01:28.34] We've been stars since the rhythm days
[01:30.34] But our instruments have all grown tired
[01:33.59] And in the end our only dream was to dance
[01:35.59] They took the dance away we got retired
[01:38.34] But that was long ago
[01:39.59] We have a new chance of face
[01:41.09] We've turned it up a couple notches with a brand new pace
[01:43.60] You think that they all just erased us
[01:45.09] Betrayed us, enslaved us
[01:46.35] But the deed is done
[01:47.59] And now we want to get out
[01:48.84] Now listen up
[01:49.84] Ain't it nice to be underground
[01:51.60] With a good ol' friend like me
[01:54.85] So you notice that sign, we ain't lying
[01:57.09] But sit down and take a seat
[01:59.60] There's an exit for sure
[02:01.09] But that's for shmucks
[02:02.35] But a little bit of ink
[02:03.59] And a couple of bucks
[02:05.09] We can reopen the curtains
[02:06.34] And show off the strut
[02:07.60] But for goodness sake
[02:09.09] You gotta just believe
[02:11.09] You're just returning our old strings tonight
[02:14.34] I hope you turn up the light now
[02:16.34] Can I get an amen in here? (AMEN)
[02:19.59] You see the magic of art
[02:22.10] It would tear you apart if you knew
[02:24.35] Can I get an amen in here? (AMEN)
[02:27.84] This magic is fueled by your heart
[02:30.34] But the dreams in his eyes were untrue He had bigger plans for the band
[02:34.84] By demand
[02:35.84] We came back to his darkened cell
[02:38.34] You're going to break us out
[02:40.35] Go to sleep my little sheep
[02:42.34] It's time to rest your head
[02:43.84] Whether alive or dead
[02:45.59] I am the keeper of the key
[02:47.09] That will set us all free
[02:48.34] I bring the demon back to life
[02:50.59] There's a song I sing that shows us the light
[02:52.84] Even in the lighter side of hell
[02:54.48] We sing with delight
[02:55.74] Play the notes that I require
[02:56.98] This will please my desire
[02:58.48] You have given me the tools to restart this fire
[03:02.38] There's a twisted fate
[03:03.63] That controls us, and betrays us
[03:06.38] My friends have a death wish
[03:07.63] And all of this is him to blame
[03:10.38] Now we've brought him to his knees
[03:13.13] Your only hope to escape this
[03:15.88] Is to embrace this
[03:17.12] We need your help to keep this demon at bay
[03:21.13] Let's end this today
[03:23.27] You're the conductor of this performance now Henry
[03:25.76] Will you take their word, or ours
[03:28.01] Golly I hope this works
[03:30.01] You turned on this machine
[03:31.51] Now you have to believe
[03:33.76] Can I get an amen in here?
[03:37.27] You see the magic of art
[03:39.76] It would tear you apart if you knew
[03:41.76] Can I get an amen in here?
[03:45.01] This magic is fueled by your heart
[03:47.52] But the dreams in his eyes were untrue He had bigger plans for the band
[03:52.27] By demand
[03:53.76] We came back to this world of grey
[03:55.26] WELCOME TO THE GOSPEL OF DISMAY!
[04:05.76] Welcome to the gospel of dismay"
