[Intro] (Sparse, eerie clean guitar riff, sudden burst of heavy bass distortion and down-tuned guitar chugs) Check... Can you hear me now? Look at what you made... [Verse 1] (Spoken-word delivery, tight drum groove, building tension) Point your finger, throw your name Pass the burden, shift the blame Box me in and label me Blind to what you'll never see Every word a rusty nail Hoping that I'll break or fail [Pre-Chorus] (Fast, aggressive delivery; heavy bass line) You talk real loud when you're in a crowd Safe behind your hypocrite shroud Feed your fear, spit your spite You made the fire, now face the light! [Chorus] (Explosive nu-metal bounce, heavy guitars, screamed/slanted vocals) I AM WHAT YOU FEAR! MIRROR IN THE GLASS! PUNISHED FOR THE TRUTH! LIVING IN THE PAST! CALL ME WHAT YOU WANT! TELL ME WHAT I'M WORTH! I'LL WEAR YOUR HATE LIKE ARMOR ON THIS EARTH! [Verse 2] (Whispered/manic vocal delivery, heavy sub-bass drone) Cruel words from a hollow chest Putting your insecurity to rest Throwing rocks from a glass house tower Using hatred to feel your power [Chorus] (Explosive full band drop) I AM WHAT YOU FEAR! MIRROR IN THE GLASS! PUNISHED FOR THE TRUTH! LIVING IN THE PAST! CALL ME WHAT YOU WANT! TELL ME WHAT I'M WORTH! I'LL WEAR YOUR HATE LIKE ARMOR ON THIS EARTH! [Bridge / Breakdown] (Slows to a heavy, crushing beat; vocals build from low snarl to full screaming delivery) You hate what you can't control... You hate what you can't control... YOU HATE WHAT YOU CAN'T CONTROL! SAY IT TO MY FACE! SAY IT TO MY FACE! [Outro] (Fast-paced wall of sound, chaotic feedback and heavy kick drums) YOUR HATE IS A WEAPON! I TAUGHT IT TO BEND! YOUR HATE IS A WEAPON! THIS IS WHERE IT ENDS!
