Monsters of the Modern Age

You’ve never known fear; you’ll blame the panic on me
I’ll fight and die here while you pursue your Plan B
The age of heroes is over, and your survival depends on you
Against a bottomless hunger, and forces unstoppable
The master is crying out: «Awaken, awaken!»
I sense the fear inside you
You can’t perceive what I do
The culmination of the terror
Of an age has come to pass
I feel the screams of the city
As I rip the lightning from the sky
I hear them beg me for pity
But I am the monster in disguise
This modern age is over before it begins
I feel that crackle of mass destruction under my skin
It’s in my destiny to be the savior
Ever as the harbinger, never the creator
The age of heroes is over, and you are nothing without your machines
I am that bottomless hunger that breaches immortality
And I scream to the master: «Awaken, awaken!»
I sense the fear inside you
You can’t perceive what I do
The culmination of the terror
Of an age has come to pass
I feel the screams of the city
As I rip the lightning from the sky
I hear them beg me for pity
But I am the monster in disguise
I am the monster in disguise
Disguise
