[Verse 1]
I have always been my own teacher
And, of course, my favorite pupil
I knew that this resilient creature
Would our aspirations fulfill

And when Zion calls, they will respond
Six hundred ten inbound
It will take some hundred years
But worth the wait to rid our fears

[Chorus]
Why settle for the night
When we can rule the world
We walk upon?
And the eclipse made it clear
Whose side the sky was on
The sky was on

[Verse 2]
All beings, they must sleep
Must dream, still and quietly
But these are not domestic sheep
They will watch over us tirelessly

We prepare for another battle royale
Evolution is complete
Spawned into another battle royale
The wraiths will be our elite
[Chorus]
Why settle for the night
When we can rule the world
We walk upon?
And the eclipse made it clear
Whose side the sky was on
The sky was on
Whenever I say "right"
I always mean that it should be perfect
And the dark angels were everything (that)
We'd expect, bred to protect

[Bridge]
Greater men than yourself
Have fallen in the past
You are right to be afraid
Of what they have become

[Refrain]
Why settle for the night
When we can rule the world
Why settle for the night
When we can rule...

[Chorus]
Why settle for the night
When we can rule the world
We walk upon?
And the eclipse made it clear
Whose side the sky was on
The sky was on
Whenever I say "right"
I always mean that it should be perfect
And the dark angels were everything (that)
We'd expect, bred to protect
[Outro]
Bred
