Fear in Yellow Light

Verse 1

Born on Korugar the violet spires burned bright

Scholar with the sharpest eye and coldest mind

Greatest of the Green the ring chose my hand

Order through will and order through command

Abin Sur fell down on desert sand

Passed the torch to a test pilot man

Chorus

Oh yellow light you learn what they fear

I wore the green now the cosmos is clear

You cannot police without making them kneel

Fear is honest fear is real

Verse 2

Hal Jordan my student my reckless son

You called me tyrant for what had to be done

Guardians judged me exiled me to Qward

Where the Weaponers forged me a new word

Not green of will but yellow of fright

Parallax whispering in the anti-light

Pre-Chorus

No more orders from the throne

No more rules I must atone

Chorus

Oh yellow light you learn what they fear

I wore the green now the cosmos is clear

You cannot police without making them kneel

Fear is honest fear is real

Breakdown

Arkillo Lyssa Drak the Keeper of the Book

Despotellis Karu-Sil come take a look

Rings upon the fingers of a fractured race

Terror is a language spoken face to face

Verse 3

Then came the war the Sinestro Corps

A thousand rings screaming fear is law

Soranik Natu my blood my daughter my heir

Healer on Korugar caught in my glare

Sinestro Corps War Blackest Night

White light rising I held green again just for spite

Pre-Chorus

No more mercy no more light

Only shadows in the night

Chorus

Oh yellow light you learn what they fear

I wore the green now the cosmos is clear

You cannot police without making them kneel

Fear is honest fear is real

Bridge

I am the law that holds the void

I am the father they tried to destroy

From Green Lantern 1961

To God-King on Warworld fear's only son

Yellow light yellow light

Burn the sky

Chorus - Double Time

Fear is law fear is real

Fear is all that I can feel

Fear is law fear is real

Yellow light burn the sky
