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
