Gospel of dismay

Let's hope this time
We can get this band back together again!

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 that meets the eye
You power up the studio and bring them 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
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 starin' right through your lies

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

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 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
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 lyin'
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 could reopen the curtains and show off the strut
But for goodness sake, you gotta just believe!

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

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 (Bring the demon back to life)
There's a song 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
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!

You're the conductor of this performance now, Henry
Will you take their word or ours?
Golly, I hope this works
You turned on this machine, now you have to believe

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