00:48
To symphonies of blinding light
00:51
God, bless us everyone
00:55
We're a broken people living under loaded gun
00:57
Oh, like memories in cold decay
01:02
Transmissions echoing away
01:05
Far from the world of you and I
01:09
Where oceans bleed into the sky
01:12
God, save us everyone
01:30
Will we burn inside the fires of a thousand suns?
01:33
For the sins of our hand
01:36
The sins of our tongue
01:38
The sins of our fathers
01:40
The sins of our young, no!
01:42
God, save us everyone
01:44
Will we burn inside the fires of a thousand suns?
01:47
For the sins of our hand
01:50
The sins of our tongue
01:52
The sins of our fathers
01:54
The sins of our young, no!
01:56
And when I close my eyes tonight
01:59
To symphonies of blinding light!
02:02
God, save us everyone
02:06
Will we burn inside the fires of a thousand suns?
02:08
Oh, like memories in cold decay
02:12
Transmissions echoing away
02:16
Far from the world of you and I
02:20
Where oceans bleed into the sky
02:23
Oh, like memories in cold decay
02:55
Transmissions echoing away
02:59
Far from the world of you and I
03:02
Where oceans bleed into the sky

Lyrics & Translation
“The Catalyst” offers a unique opportunity to explore complex themes of technology, humanity, and consequence through its powerful and evolving soundscape. For language learners, the song's dynamic structure, from Mike Shinoda's rhythmic verses to Chester Bennington's soaring choruses, provides a diverse range of vocabulary and emotional expression. Its departure from Linkin Park's earlier style makes it a special track that showcases artistic growth and a willingness to tackle profound subjects.
