Church of the Machine - Symphony X

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

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 masses 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 masses 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
