Hey, why don’t you turn off the light?
It’s been another uneventful night

The day will creep in like sure fate
You get on with it despite your aching hate

You take the flack
‘Til your traumatized and dumb
You break your back
‘Til your paralyzed and numb

Today the shining sun feels so gray
It’s no surprise when you see it from inside all day

Need the burn to warm your living skin
Might have to break glass just to let it in

You take the flack
‘Til your traumatized and dumb
You break your back
‘Til your paralyzed and numb

You make the pact
‘Til your traumatized and dumb
You break your back
‘Til your paralyzed and numb

Discontented dissenters is really what we should be
Devil’s in our blood, it’s a curse that could set us free

Devil’s in our blood, in our blood

You take the flack
‘Til your traumatized and dumb
You break your back
‘Til your paralyzed and numb

Don’t swallow the first thing that’s been offered to you
Your waiting lesson is it’s awful you
The sweetest feel is to stomach your own thing
You might be the subject but you’re still the king
