Monsters
Walked up the plank of the mothership
Down to the depths of Metropolis
Swam around 'til I was dry
Walked the carousel of the sky
Where you're blue and gray
Welcome to our darkest day
Carry the torch on the interstate
Burn the bridges, close the gates
They're coming, they're running
Empty heads and empty hearts
They're needing, they're feeding
Everything in their bed
Oh, the monsters of the world
Their hunger's never well
They revel in their greed, honoring only their own needs
Sunset on a field of gold
The horsemen turn it all to gold
Mother held her baby close
The horsemen turn it all in reverse into the darkness
College and truth behind us
What do we have before us?
Blistered feet and shattered seas
Oh, the monsters of the world
Their hunger's never well
They revel in their greed, honoring only their own broken record
Broken record, broken record, broken record, broken record
Broken record, broken record
It's broken
The seed cracked open and the rain came down
Multiplied for everyone
Thunder struck and the wolves appeared
Sun burst through and the moon disappeared into the darkness
Turning all to black and white
Robbing us of kindness, forcing all to fight
They're coming, they're running, with burning heads and angry hearts
They're eating, they're feeding, on everything in their path
Oh, they disguise themselves as shepherds, then lion, cheat and steal
Oh, it's for us to break the cycle, break the cycle, break the cycle, break the cycle
Break the cycle, break the cycle, break the cycle, break the cycle
Break the significance
Walked up the plank on a mothership
Down to the depths of metropolis
Walked up the plank on a mothership
Walked up the plank on a mothership
Down to the depths of Metropolis
Swam around 'til I was dry
Walked the carousel of the sky
Where you're blue and gray
Welcome to our darkest day
Carry the torch on the interstate
Burn the bridges, close the gates
They're coming, they're running
Empty heads and empty hearts
They're needing, they're feeding
Everything in their bed
Oh, the monsters of the world
Their hunger's never well
They revel in their greed, honoring only their own needs
Sunset on a field of gold
The horsemen turn it all to gold
Mother held her baby close
The horsemen turn it all in reverse into the darkness
College and truth behind us
What do we have before us?
Blistered feet and shattered seas
Oh, the monsters of the world
Their hunger's never well
They revel in their greed, honoring only their own broken record
Broken record, broken record, broken record, broken record
Broken record, broken record
It's broken
The seed cracked open and the rain came down
Multiplied for everyone
Thunder struck and the wolves appeared
Sun burst through and the moon disappeared into the darkness
Turning all to black and white
Robbing us of kindness, forcing all to fight
They're coming, they're running, with burning heads and angry hearts
They're eating, they're feeding, on everything in their path
Oh, they disguise themselves as shepherds, then lion, cheat and steal
Oh, it's for us to break the cycle, break the cycle, break the cycle, break the cycle
Break the cycle, break the cycle, break the cycle, break the cycle
Break the significance
Walked up the plank on a mothership
Down to the depths of metropolis
Walked up the plank on a mothership
Walked up the plank on a mothership
