[Verse 1]
Sorry to keep you waiting
The gates are open, go on, walk straight in
It's nearly time for the demonstration
So shut your eyes now and pray to– shh...
[Verse 2]
Cast off all expectation
There's simply no time for explanation
We're ready for your initiation
Offer your hand now, it's time to go
[Chorus]
Oh child, you've come a long way down
Don't lose your nerve, don't turn back now
I swear you'll see it when the dark calls
A new beginning when the night falls
[Verse 3]
Angels, they have no place here
You know they're lying when they tell you that you need not fear
So softly spoken, the words in your ear
To mask the bastards holding hostage everything you hold dear
[Verse 4]
Eyes of fire, ringed in poison
Shoving candy down your throat to keep the noise in
But if you bite them first and make it hurt, it just might work
It's always worth a try, you never know, you could destroy them
[Chorus]
Oh child, you've come a long way down
Don't lose your nerve, don't turn back now
I swear you'll see it when the dark calls
A new beginning when the night falls
[Bridge]
The stars are brightly shining
They're reflected in your eyes
Oh you can sense it, you can feel it
You can fall but never die
The world is watching on in horror
Burn their judgement, this is it
The culmination of your life
It's your ascendance to the pit
Oh yes, the stars are brightly burning
But they pale against your eyes
Come revel in what you have wrought
And you will never, ever die
The world is watching on in horror
Fuck their judgement, this is it
The culmination of your life
Your coronation in the pit
[Chorus]
Oh child, you've come a long way down
Don't lose your nerve, don't turn back now
I swear you'll see it when the dark calls
A new beginning when the night falls
Oh child, you've come a long way down (You've come a long way down)
Don't lose your nerve, don't turn back now
I swear you'll see it when the dark calls
A new beginning when the night falls
