+ Show full styles

[Intro – heavy breathing, metallic echo, distorted feedback]

It's my fault again…
How can you be wrong?
[slight echo on "my" and "wrong"]
It bounces… always… off me…

[Verse 1 – throbbing bass, dry toms, close-miked vocals]
When you're looking for someone to blame…
you always have me…
as the lightning rod…
I'm used to…
I don't move…
I don't move…
[pause, metallic hiss, anxious breathing]

[Verse 2 – Stop & Go, nervous drums, broken vocals]
Every mistake… Every error… Bounces… Bounces… Off me… Off me… I'm staying here… I'm staying… Used to it… Always used to it…
[Pre-Chorus – Scratched guitars, obsessive bass] Is it my fault…? It's my fault… Everything… bounces… Everything… falls… On my skin… On my body… I don't move… I don't move…
[Chorus – Scream/distortion, explosive mosh pit rhythm] It's always my fault! Every mistake you make… Every anger you throw back at me!

[Short pause]
I'm the lightning rod… [scream] 
The lightning rod! [repeat, crescendo]

[Bridge – half-time, whispered but tense voice] 
I am the lightning rod… The lightning rod… The lightning rod… It bounces… it falls… All over me… I don't move… I don't run away… [pause, metallic feedback, pulsing bass]

[Verse 3 – sudden acceleration, nervous drums, broken vocals]
My fault… my fault… Always me… always me… You're looking for a scapegoat… I'll stay here… I'll act as a shield… I'll act as a shield… But I won't break… I won't break…

[Final Chorus – full explosion, scratched guitars, total mosh pit]

It's always my fault! It bounces off me… Every mistake of yours… Every anger of yours… It doesn't stop me… It doesn't bend me… I'm the lightning rod! [repeat with rising echo, feedback, and obsessive bass]

[Outro – slowdown, echo, and metallic feedback]
 This time too… It's my fault… But I'm used to it… 
Always used to it… I won't move… I won't move…
 [fade out with throbbing bass, dry toms, and anxious breathing]
