The Dark Sentencer - Coheed and Cambria

It begins with them, but ends with me, their son, Vaxis

Hey!

Hey!

Hey!

Hey!

Hey!

Hey!

Hey!

Hey!

Hey!

Hey!

Hey!

Hey!

Hey!

Hey!

Hey!

Hey!

Here, emotions behold

You’ve entered a Hell where the Devil is made of gold

Please, don’t run your mouth

The questions before have no place in this haunted house

Reveal your selfish pleasure

One more time 'round for good measure

In the answer you hold

Time would be better off if our souls had been sold

Here where the light only dies to remember

In the place where the blind truly can see

Hear my voice, dearly departed, I beg on my knees

It’s been my pleasure to serve your disease

Welcome home (Hey! Hey! Hey!)

Shed your skin and expose your bones (Hey! Hey! Hey!)

Take my hand (Hey! Hey! Hey!)

And follow us into the black (Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey!)

So far that we can’t get back

Here, dig me a grave

And toss in the lives that you can’t be bothered to save

With their blood on your hands

You enjoy the sun while you shit in the purest sand

Kiss your lover with that filthy mouth

You fucking monster

Here as evil now gropes

It’s caught us off guard with its hands reaching for our throats

Here where the light only dies to remember

In the place where the blind truly can see

Hear my voice, dearly departed, I beg on my knees

It’s been my pleasure to serve your disease

Welcome home (Hey! Hey! Hey!)

Shed your skin and expose your bones (Hey! Hey! Hey!)

Take my hand (Hey! Hey! Hey!)

And follow us into the black (Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey!)

So far that we can’t get back

There’s no telling when the truth is clear, pay it no mind

Lines were drawn for us, for all sides

In the afterglow, echoes of time unfold

Give me your word, my dear, and promise you won’t let go

You may rest inside the night

You can’t save what the sleep implies

It’s a shame, I fear, from end to start

We walked their lines, born to play the fucking part

A shame, I fear, from end to start

We walked their lines, born to play the fucking part

I fear we’ve got all we had wanted

Close your eyes and believe it didn’t happen

Now shut your mouth beyond your lies

The world knows to stay away from you

In the blood you let run, they march as you lead

We laugh in the sun, maybe that’s all we need

I, and I, and I’m sorry

You can’t escape

Here where the light only dies to remember

A place where the blind truly can see

Hear my voice, dearly departed, I beg on my knees

It’s been my pleasure to serve your disease

Welcome home (Hey! Hey! Hey!)

Shed your skin and expose your bones (Hey! Hey! Hey!)

Take my hand (Hey! Hey! Hey!)

And follow us into the black (Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey!)

So far that we can’t get back

(Hey! Hey! Hey!)

Welcome home (Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey!)

(Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey!)

Welcome home (Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey!)

(Hey! Hey! Hey!)
