[Prelude]
No, no, there is no time
Space between the Well & unknowing
Our story starts there
Well into our future, yet far beyond our past
In a romance between a pair of Unheavenly Creatur
The Five Houses of the Star Supremacy have privatized the detention zones of the galaxy
These planetary prison pits reassembled from the cracked worlds of the Great Crash
Which brings us to our stage
Where the light must learn to love the black
The Dark Sentencer
It begins with them, but ends with me. Their son, Vaxus
Bm G E
[Verse 1]
BmHere, emotions behold
You've entered a Hell where the Devil is made of gold
BmPlease, don't run your mouth
The questions before have no place in this haunted house
BmReveal your selfish pleasure
One more time run for good measure
BmIn the answer you ho
Time would be better off if our souls had been sold
D Bm
[Pre-Chorus]
AHere, where the liDght oGnly dies to remembBmer
DInBm a plAace where the blDind trGuly can sBmee
GHear my voice, dearly deBmparted, I beg on my DkneD/C#es
GIt's been my pleasuBmre to serve your disDease D/C#
[Chorus]
GWelAcomBme home (Hey! Hey! Hey!)
SGhed yoAur sBmkin and expose your bones (Hey! Hey! Hey!)
TaGke mAy haBmnd (Hey! Hey! Hey!)
And fGolAlow uBms into the black (Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey!)
So far that we can't get back
[Verse 2]
BmHere, dig me a grave
And toss in the lives that you can't be bothered to save
BmWith their blood on your hands
You enjoy the sun while you shit in the purest sand
BmKiss your lover with that filthy mouth
You fucking monster
BmHere, as evil now gropes
It's caught us off guard with its hand reaching for our throats
[Pre-Chorus]
AHere, where the liDght oGnly dies to remembBmer
DInBm a plAace where the blDind trGuly can sBmee
GHear my voice, dearly deBmparted, I beg on my DkneD/C#es
GIt's been my pleasuBmre to serve your disDease D/C#
[Chorus]

SGhed yoAur sBmkin and expose your bones (Hey! Hey! Hey!)
TaGke mAy haBmnd (Hey! Hey! Hey!)
And fGolAlow uBms into the black (Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey!)
So far that we can't get back
