[Verse 1: Ryan Miller/Miller & Adam Gardner]
Absent in the things I've done
For the real revelations come to people so slow
Frightening
Won't stop now before they're done
Peel their skin eaten underneath
Rotten, rotten

[Chorus: Miller & Gardner]
Drowning in understanding
Swallowed poison keeps them well
But watching the others struggle through makes me grin
Should I tell the mindless stumbling through
That I have found it?

[Verse 2: Ryan Miller/Miller & Adam Gardner]
Watching all the things they've done
This is real when revolution comes from misguided hands
Frightening
And in all the idiots I see
Thoughtless men casting doubts on me
Enlightening

[Chorus: Ryan Miller & Adam Gardner]
Drowning in understanding
Swallowed poison keeps them well
But watching the others struggle through makes me grin
Should I tell the mindless stumbling through
That I have found it?
[Bridge: Ryan Miller/Miller & Adam Gardner]
They'll turn the vice once
And slowly break your hand
Will it come back you now
Just like it never left?

[Collision: Ryan Miller, Adam Gardner, Both]
Peel away their faith, their fears have led them towards the first one
(Drowning in understanding)
See the way their minds have glazed, they're looking towards the worst one
(Swallowed poison keeps them well)
But watching the others struggle through makes me grin
(Peel away their faith, their fears have led them towards the first one)
Should I tell the mindless stumbling through
That I have found it?
(See the way their minds have glazed, they're looking towards the worst one)

[Outro: Ryan Miller & Adam Gardner]
Peel away their faith, their fears
Have led them towards the worst one
See the way their minds have glazed
But I have found it
