[Music & Lyrics: Symphony X] I'm the master, looking down from the edge of space and time Flesh and steel intertwined I am the future, sacrifice your soul and succumb to me Nailed to your faith, you'll believe Scream-and no one hears my pleas Faceless ma**es falling to their knees Bow down in the platinum maze Twilight cathedrals spread the system plague Forging sacred thrones in the void unseen Merciless judgement in the church of the machine Pyramids in the sky, playing out their cosmic games Rulers of us all, forever cursed we live in pain Cursed-we live in pain... The creator, 'Neath the darkened sun, my empires rise Artificially devised The destroyer, fierce intentions flow from a virtual rage Forever lost and enslaved Total mesh of soul and steel Life-force force under my command Twisted baptism of fire Between machine and man Scream-and no one hears my pleas Faceless ma**es falling to their knees Bow down in the platinum maze Twilight cathedrals spread the system plague Forging sacred thrones in the void unseen Merciless judgement in the church of the machine Bow down in the platinum maze Twilight cathedrals spread the system plague Forging sacred thrones in the void unseen Merciless judgement in the church of the machine
