Absent in the things I've done 
For the real 
Revelations come to people so slow 
Frightening 
Won't stop now before they're done 
Peel their skin 
Eaten underneath 
Rotten 
Rotten 
Drowning in understanding 
Swallowed poison keeps them well 
But watching the others struggle through 
Makes me grin 
Should I tell the mindless stumbling through 
That I have found it? 
Watching all the things they've done 
This is real 
When revolution comes from misguided hands 
Frightening 
And in all the idiots I see 
Thoughtless men casting doubts on me 
Enlightening 
Downing in understanding 
Swallowed poison keeps them well 
But watching the others struggle through 
Makes me grin 
Should I tell the mindless stumbling through 
That I have found it? 
They'll turn the vice once 
And slowly break your hand 
Will it come back to you now 
Just like it never left? 
(Chorus in forefront, lyrics below as backup) 
Peel away their faith, their fears, have led them towards the worse one 
See the way their minds have glazed they're looking for the worst one 
But I have found it
