The Stupendium - Dwelling in Despair lyrics

Once again, I'm back in school
I hear that this one's pretty cool
Once again I am the fool
As another story, now unspool

Hey kid, what's your special talent?
I'm rather ordinary I don't think
That I have it
Ah shucks, come and meet all of us
Come out the fridge get on the bus

Here at Hope's Peak Academy
We are the stars, it's you and me
For a bright shining future
We hope any wounds can suture

Lest we let despair win
Well let's just jump on right in
Another cast, another tale
About twisted murder, now for sale

In this dwelling of despair
There is no hope, not anywhere
Just students of hope and rebellion
The whole thing's quite Machiavelian
Whether they live or die we know you'll cry
In a franchise we'll milk dry!

Oh, another season? What's the
Need for treason?
Seems to me you're whining without reason
It's a dreadful story
Lots of plot and thinking
This mystery has got an answer
But it's surely sinking
If we don't try it's gonna
Vanish while we're busy blinking
A nasty crook's abound with a
Plot we all smell stinking
No, we can't just trust each other
But we can't stay in a pother
We gotta work together
Be each other's friend and brother
Lest I die here and never see my mother
A twisted academy everyone's after me
Thought this was just a test of talent
This isn't quite so gallent
Call me an overachiever
But I'll be a new believer
In a world that's merciful if
I escape the deadly folds
