The Ritual
(Underground City)
The Ritual
(Underground City)
The Ritual
(Underground City)
The Ritual
(in Underground City)

1 Verse
Wake up
Make up
Mirror on the wall
(Who’s the fairest of them all?)

“Unknown”
Cell phone
Ringing down the Hall
(Don’t answer that!)

One last touch up
And then you’re ready to go
(You know)
Step out into the night
Go where the lights shine bright

1 Chorus
Tonight’s
The Ritual
When we gather all as one
It’s so habitual
Underneath the midnight sun
No individuals
Just a wild pack on the run
It’s so instinctual
Gonna hunt until the morning comes

The Ritual
(Underground City)
The Ritual
(Underground City)
The Ritual
(Underground City)
The Ritual
(in Underground City)

2 Verse
There was a time when love just felt so good
(You know that feeling)
Promises were made and understood (Promises)
Now the game has changed and you know that it would
(You know)
Step out into the light
And be with us tonight


2 Chorus
Tonight’s
The Ritual
When we gather all as one
It’s so habitual
Underneath the midnight sun
No individuals
Just a wild pack on the run
It’s so instinctual
Gonna hunt until the morning comes


C-PART

Children of the night
(Hear me calling)
Children of the night
(We are falling)

Children of the night
Children of the night
Children of the night

RE-INTRO
“Mirror, mirror on the wall. Who’s the fairest of us all?” (Ruth McCartney)

3 Chorus
Welcome to
Underground City
Where the parties never stops
You’re right here in Underground City
Where we cherish every drop
So stay a while in Underground City
And when night turns into day
Just be with us in Underground City
And we’ll take your pain away…

(Take your pain away, but there’s a price to pay)
