Have you seen the silent tyrant?
Swollen underneath his skull
Will it crack from all this pressure?
Everyone he can’t control
I heard “no” before the question
We can read your jagged fine
Lasers spelling out the answer
We don’t even need our eyes

Wave goodbye to bridges burning
Watch the clouds of blackness fade
Orchestrate this new delusion
Wash away the darkest days
Something's pushing up below me
Lower subconscious control
I can steer the waking body
I can care about it all…

If there’s a lesson, I could take it
I could take a lesson from the darkness
If there’s a lesson, I could take it
I could take a lesson from the darkness
If there’s a lesson, I can take it
I can take a lesson from the darkness
If there’s a lesson, I can take it
I can take a lesson from the darkness
I can take a lesson from the darkness

If there’s a lesson, I can take it
I can take a lesson from the darkness
I can take a lesson from the darkness
I can take a lesson from the darkness
