[Verse 1: Mike Shinoda]
Nah, you don't know me
Lightning above and a fire below me
You cannot catch me, cannot hold me
You cannot stop, much less control me

When it rains, it pours
When the floodgates open, brace your shores
That pressure don't care when it breaks your door
Say it's all you can take, better take some more

[Pre-Chorus: Mike Shinoda & Chester Bennington]
(Oh, oh)
'Cause I know what it's like to test fate
Had my shoulders pressed with that weight
Stood up strong in spite of that hate
(Oh, oh)
A night gets darkest right before dawn
What don't kill you makes you more strong
And I've been waiting for it, so lo...

[Pre-Drop: Mike Shinoda]
G-g-g-g-get this bitch earthquaking, like...

[Drop]
[Interlude: Mike Shinoda]
A night gets darkest, right before dawn
What don't kill you makes you more strong
You'll have my mercy then, when you're gone

[Drop: Mike Shinoda]
(--O-o-o-o-one)
(--O-o-o-o-one)
(--O-o-o-o-one)
(--O-o-o-o-one)

[Pre-Chorus: Mike Shinoda & Chester Bennington]
(Oh, oh)
(Oh, oh)
A night gets darkest right before dawn
What don't kill you makes you more strong
And I've been waiting for it, so long

[Chorus: Chester Bennington]
The nights go on
Waiting for a light that never comes
I chase the sun
Waiting for a light that never comes
Oh, oh, oh
Waiting for a light that never comes
[Build-Up: Chester Bennington]
Oh, oh, oh
Waiting for a light that never comes

[Drop]

[Pre-Chorus: Mike Shinoda & Chester Bennington]
(Oh, oh)
'Cause I know what it's like to test fate
Had my shoulders pressed with that weight
Stood up strong in spite of that hate
(Oh, oh)
A night gets darkest right before dawn
What don't kill you makes you more strong
And I've been waiting for it, so long

[Chorus: Chester Bennington]
The nights go on
Waiting for a light that never comes
I chase the sun
Waiting for a light that never comes
Oh, oh, oh
Waiting for a light that never comes

[Drop: Chester Bennington & Mike Shinoda]
Oh, oh, oh, oh
G-g-g-g-get this bitch earthquaking, like...
[Pre-Chorus: Mike Shinoda & Chester Bennington]
(Oh, oh)
'Cause I know what it's like to test fate
Had my shoulders pressed with that weight
Stood up strong in spite of that hate
(Oh, oh)
A night gets darkest right before dawn
What don't kill you makes you more strong
And I've been waiting for it, so lo...

[Pre-Drop: Mike Shinoda]
G-g-g-g-get this bitch earthquaking, like...

[Drop]

[Interlude: Mike Shinoda]
A night gets darkest, right before dawn
What don't kill you makes you more strong
You'll have my mercy then, when you're gone
