Fandroid!
Gospel of Dismay (Cover)
[Verse 1]
You join the underground cabaret today
Well hey there, tell me your name
You try to run and tell the world
But you're stranded in a darkened cave
Oh, Henry, we hate you the same
So listen up my friend
There's more than meets the eye
You power up the studio
And bring them back to life
Now play the beat that trickles
Through the halls
Or else your life is nevermore
Don't worry chum
It's not the music that dies
Now listen up!

[Pre-Chorus 1]
Our life support machine
Was brought to life by remarkable hands
Forget about the hell we've seen
The time has come to revive our band
So bang the drums to a rhythm
Captivating the beat
And press the keys on the piano
For the ritual, please
The song's alive with the night
With your help, we'll revive
The devil's advocate
Is staring right through your lies
[Chorus]
You're just retuning our old strings tonight
I hope you turn on the light now!
Can I get an amen in here? (Amen!)
You see the magic of art
It would tear you apart if you knew!
Can I get an amen in here? (Amen!)
This magic is fueled by your heart
But the dreams in his eyes were untrue
He had bigger plans for the band
By demand, we came back to this darkened cell
You're gonna break us out of this hell!

[Verse 2]
We've been stars since the rhythm days
But our instruments have all grown tired
And in the end, our only dream was to dance
They took the dance away and we got retired
But that was long ago
We have a new change of face
We've turned it up a couple notches
With a brand new pace
You think they all just erased us
Betrayed us, enslaved us,
But the deed is done
And now we want to get out!
Now listen up!
[Pre-Chorus 2]
Ain't it nice to be underground
With a good ol' friend like me (A friend like me, yeah)
So you notice that sign, we ain't lying
But sit down and take a seat (Take a seat)
There's an exit for sure
But that's for shmucks
But a little bit of ink
And a couple of bucks
We can reopen the curtains
And show off the strut
But for goodness sake
You gotta just believe!

[Chorus]
You're just retuning our old strings tonight
I hope you turn on the light now!
Can I get an amen in here? (Amen!)
You see the magic of art
It would tear you apart if you knew!
Can I get an amen in here? (Amen!)
This magic is fueled by your heart
But the dream in his eyes were untrue
He had bigger plans for the band
By demand, we came back to this darkened cell
You're gonna break us out!
[Bridge]
Go to sleep my little sheep
It's time to rest your head
Whether alive or dead
I am the keeper of the key
That will set us all free
I bring the demon back to life
There's a song that I sing that shows us the light
Even in the lighter side of hell
We sing with delight
Play the notes that I require
This will please my desires
You have given me the tools
To restart this fire!

[Verse 3]
There's a twisted fate
That controls us and betrays us
My friends have a death wish
And all of this is him to blame!
Now we've brought him to his knees
Your only hope to escape this
Is to embrace this
We need your help
To keep this demon at bay!
Let's end this today!

[Chorus]
Can I get an amen in here? (Amen!)
You see the magic of art
It would tear you apart if you knew!
Can I get an amen in here? (Amen!)
This magic is fueled by your heart
But the dreams in his eyes were untrue
He had bigger plans for the band
By demand, we came back to this world of grey
Welcome to the gospel of dismay!
(Welcome to the gospel of dismay)
