[Verse 1]
Every picture has its shadows and it has some source of light
Blindness, blindness and sight
The perils of benefactors, the blessings of parasites
Blindness, blindness and sight

[Chorus]
Threatened by all things, devil of cruelty
Drawn to all things, devil of delight
Mythical devil of the ever-present laws
Governing blindness, blindness and sight

[Verse 2]
Suntans in reservation dining rooms, pale miners in their lantern rays
Night, night and day
Hostage smiles on presidents, freedom scribbled in thе subway
It's like night, night and day

[Chorus]
Threatenеd by all things, god of cruelty
Drawn to all things, god of delight
Mythical god of the everlasting laws
Governing day, day and night

[Verse 3]
Critics of all expression, judges in black and white
Saying it's wrong, saying it's right
Compelled by prescribed standards or some ideals we fight
For wrong, wrong and right

[Chorus]
Threatened by all things, man of cruelty, mark of Cain
Drawn to all things, man of delight born again, born again
Man of the laws, the ever-broken laws
Governing wrong, wrong and right

[Outro]
Governing wrong, wrong and right
Wrong and right
