[Protomen Quote Bot (ACT III JAN 9) @ProtomenLyrics]

Not a thing can be done with so few men...
That a HERO couldn't do.

[Protomen Quote Bot (ACT III JAN 9) @ProtomenLyrics]

Even here, it is not safe.

[Protomen Quote Bot (ACT III JAN 9) @ProtomenLyrics]

So I will stand here with my shoulders square and tall.
When the whistle blows, not falter
When the crash comes, I will fall.

[Protomen Quote Bot (ACT III JAN 9) @ProtomenLyrics]

(Liner: His face is shrouded in the shadow of the fortress, his rough features and solid construction obscured by the void of light.)

[Protomen Quote Bot (ACT III JAN 9) @ProtomenLyrics]

You've been fed what they wanted to feed you. You've been bled of the will to survive.

[Protomen Quote Bot (ACT III JAN 9) @ProtomenLyrics]

(There was the hatred again, the rage, welling inside of him. No more, he thought, as he tore down the tools and parts that framed his apartment workshop.
Never again.)

[Protomen Quote Bot (ACT III JAN 9) @ProtomenLyrics]

SO BE IT, SEND YOUR ARMIES.

[Protomen Quote Bot (ACT III JAN 9) @ProtomenLyrics]

AND WE WILL RAISE OUR HANDS ABOVE US,
COLD STEEL SHINING IN THE SUN,
AND WITH THESE HANDS THAT WILL NOT BLEED:
MY FATHER'S BATTLE WILL BE WON.

[Protomen Quote Bot (ACT III JAN 9) @ProtomenLyrics]

You and I, Tom,
We are men,
And we can bend,
And we can break.

[Protomen Quote Bot (ACT III JAN 9) @ProtomenLyrics]

They watched them beat him,
They watched them break him,
They watched his last defense deployed.

[Protomen Quote Bot (ACT III JAN 9) @ProtomenLyrics]

YOU'VE BEEN FED WHAT THEY WANTED TO FEED YOU. YOU'VE BEEN BLED OF THE WILL TO SURVIVE.

[Protomen Quote Bot (ACT III JAN 9) @ProtomenLyrics]

You finally get it. There are no heroes.
Mankind is doomed.

[Protomen Quote Bot (ACT III JAN 9) @ProtomenLyrics]

THIS CITY WON'T KNOW WHAT HIT HER.

[Protomen Quote Bot (ACT III JAN 9) @ProtomenLyrics]

BUT WHEN YOU FIGHT,
YOU'LL FIGHT ALONE.

[Protomen Quote Bot (ACT III JAN 9) @ProtomenLyrics]

Flip a switch and turn it off,
You won't be able to breathe.

[Protomen Quote Bot (ACT III JAN 9) @ProtomenLyrics]

THEY SAY YOU'D KILL A MAN FOR WALKING THE WRONG SIDE OF THE LINE.

[Protomen Quote Bot (ACT III JAN 9) @ProtomenLyrics]

THERE'S GOTTA BE SOMETHING BETTER.

[Protomen Quote Bot (ACT III JAN 9) @ProtomenLyrics]

(Liner: He made his way to the window overlooking the city.)

[Protomen Quote Bot (ACT III JAN 9) @ProtomenLyrics]

THERE IS A FLAME THAT I'VE BEEN FANNING,
THERE IS A FIRE WAITING TO CATCH.
THERE IS A HELL THAT HAS BEEN BUILDING FROM THE MOMENT WE FIRST MET.

[Protomen Quote Bot (ACT III JAN 9) @ProtomenLyrics]

(There must be an end to the darkness...)
