The Tyrant Lyrics

A withering reflection of yourself
A fleeting face
I don't want to remember
Show me the true face (true face)
Behind those soulless eyes
Stare into the mirror
And look yourself in the eye (in the eye)
Restrained so you can't turn your head
You will witness
The downfall of your time

Hold your breath for just a second (just a second)
And make this moment last (make this moment last)
Tear yourself away
From the memory
Of yesterday

I will tear down
The tyrant
Of my mind
Destroy the demon of my own
Design

So sick of this state of heresy
For all that will remain
This light will blind my sight
Closing my eyes
Will reveal
A new found clarity
Rebirth of truth
Reveal the veils of ignorance
I will tear down
How long did you think
I would remain
Weak and powerless

I will tear down
The tyrant
Of my mind
Destroy the demon of my own design
I don't understand how I
How I could have let you take,
The upper hand
I need to take control, but no

So sick of this state of apathy
Time has come for a different reality
A new world I will create
Break down the walls
A new found clarity

How long did you think I would remain weak and powerless
Standing by as the devil poured lies into our ears

I don't understand
How I could have let you take the upper hand
How did you take control of my soul
I refuse to let you live my lie
