Can't Be Erased

I'm the Dancing Demon
Watch me twirl and hop and spin
I'm quick to give a smile
But I won't forget your sins

Ha ha ha ha! The wonders of imagination!
Welcome home, dear friend
Oh, how long we've all been waitin'
Let's create a masterpiece, breathe life into your dreams
All you gotta do is start up the machine

I'm the product of an artist
Whose creations bring delight
Upon this somber threshold
Imagination comes to life
Just free yourself from reason
Soon, you'll see in black and white
Call me a seed of evil
But what's that mean if I'm conceived within your mind?

Leaking from the ceiling
Ink is bleeding through the lines
Is that your heart that's beating
Or illusion you're alive?
Collect what's necessary
Keep appeasing the divines
It's me you should be believing
'Cause he's deceiving you with lies

Holy conniption — has it been thirty years? (No way!)
It appears Mickey Mouse might've been murdered here (No way!)
Lifeless pie cut eyes — I have learned to fear
Kinda reminds me why I quit workin' here
Why did I come, let me go home, I should be leavin' (help me)
Whatever happened, don't wanna know, what are these demons? (No!)
Guess if I gotta be stuck here, then I might as well investigate
Secrets are unlocking — but too bad the exit ain't!

Despite this mask of happiness, I drown in dark despair
The world may be your canvas, what you paint on it, beware
The pen is mightier than the sword, it has no limitation
Don't refrain, this ink will stain and nothing can erase us now
Can you describe the face you saw?
Could it be one you recognize?
We'd never harm the hand that draws
Imagination cursed us all with life

Shamed and defaced
Scathed and disgraced
Tainted by hatred and can't be erased
Creators betrayed us
We've got it on tape
We've written your fate and it can't be erased

(Be erased, be erased, be erased)
(Can't be erased, be erased)

I was not always a monster
Once, I was somebody's muse
Innovation made us stronger
But that power was abused
The machine is thumping
And the ink is pumping
Now you need to run
Because the Demon's coming

I really need help, someone send a telegram!
I'm surrounded by upside down pentagrams
I don't have a guide, just little bit of candlelight
With an axe that I don't know how to handle right
That little Devil Darlin's on a lot of reels
Long as he's on one, he cannot be real
Stop the projectors, Bendy's off his reel!
Got a feeling he and Joey got a deal

An unholy bargain, a demonic seal
With a master plan, that I must reveal
Won't be long 'til this ink's all congealed
Upon my body, head to toe, all concealed
But a little bit of bleach should do the trick
I'll never watch another damn cartoon — I quit!
Look at you, you're scared of a moving pic
Hey, Bendy, how'd you get that tutu to fit? (Hahahaha)

I'm blinded by this evil growing
My heart is full of people-loathing
With secrets that I keep from showing
I am the wolf in sheepish clothing

Flood the shop, with ink-a-floating
Push it to the brink of blowing
We hope you don't think of going
Weigh you down to keep from floating
Come with me, we'll bring you Joey
You'll be kept from being lonely
Kicking screaming, sinking slowly
Give your soul, it's what you owe me!

Shamed and defaced
Scathed and disgraced
Tainted by hatred and can't be erased
Creators betrayed us
We've got it on tape
We've written your fate and it can't be erased
