Long Way Down (Angelic Version) Lyrics

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

Oh, you know

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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
