Eldritch Forces

This morning, while I was on my break
I decided to leave everything behind
Forsake the trudging world of civilization
And join the eldritch forces that conspire against mankind
I told my supervisor the news
She was surprised, but she took it with stride
A handshake and some congratulations, then I was on my way
When I got home, a black car was waiting outside

Isn't it nice
To have something to believe in?
Isn't it it nice
To have somewhere you belong?
When humanity is fed into the Void
I will be there
Singing this song

This morning, where I read forsaken tomes
I made some new friends by the coffee machine
Mephistopheles is from Germany, and he's really into ska
And Darryl from Salem, he's got the strangest eyes I've ever seen
We're gonna take a botany class together
We're gonna go camping in the ancient hills just outside of town
And go fishing for slithering beasts in the bottomless pool
While Darryl sings like the voices coming from the burial ground

Isn't it nice
To have something to believe in?
Isn't it it nice
To have somewhere you belong?
When humanity is fed into the Void
Give me your hand
No I will not cut it off

And I'm starting to understand
That these people are not evil minions at all
And I'm starting to understand
That my initial impressions were from ignorance and gall
These cursed tongues are just someone else's language
These forsaken tomes are just someone else's books
Even this dagger they gave me is ceremonial, it can't even cut bread
Not everything is as strange as it first looks
And feeding humanity into the void
Wouldn't be such a bad thing if you'll just hear me out
Like David said, "heaven is a place where nothing ever happens"
And nothing is what the Void is all about

Isn't it nice
To have something to believe in?
Isn't it it nice
To have somewhere you belong?
Isn't it nice
To have some perspective?
Isn't it nice
To finally sing along?
