Black Holes and Revelations (2006) incorporated electronic and pop elements, displayed in singles such as "Supermassive Black Hole", and brought Muse wider international success. The Resistance (2009) and The 2nd Law (2012) explored themes of government oppression and civil uprising and cemented Muse as one of the world's major stadium acts. Rolling Stone stated the band possessed "stadium-crushing songs". Topping the US Billboard 200, their seventh album, Drones (2015), was a concept album about drone warfare and returned to a harder rock sound. Their eighth album, Simulation Theory (2018), prominently featured synthesisers and was influenced by science fiction and the simulation hypothesis. Their ninth album, Will of the People (2022), which combined many genres and themes from their previous albums, was released in August 2022.
Muse have won numerous awards, including two Grammy Awards, two Brit Awards, five MTV Europe Music Awards and eight NME Awards. In 2012 they received the Ivor Novello Award for International Achievement from the British Academy of Songwriters, Composers and Authors. As of June 2016, they have sold over 30 million albums worldwide.

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Oh baby, can you hear me moan?
You caught me under false pretenses
How long before you let me go?
Ooh
You set my soul alight
You set my soul alight
You set my soul alight
Glaciers melting in the dead of night
And the superstars sucked into the super massive
You set my soul alight
Glaciers melting in the dead of night
And the superstars sucked into the super massive
I thought I was a fool for no one
Oh baby, I'm a fool for you
You're the queen of the superficial
And how long before you tell the truth?
You set my soul alight
You set my soul alight
You set my soul alight
Glaciers melting in the dead of night
And the superstars sucked into the super massive
You set my soul alight
Glaciers melting in the dead of night
And the superstars sucked into the super massive
Super massive black hole
Super massive black hole
Super massive black hole
Glaciers melting in the dead of night
And the superstars sucked into the super massive
Glaciers melting in the dead of night
And the superstars sucked into the super massive
You set my soul alight
Glaciers melting in the dead of night
And the superstars sucked into the super massive
You set my soul alight
Glaciers melting in the dead of night

Oh baby, don't you know I suffer?
Do you understand the pain I'm going through, my agony and my sorrow?
Oh baby, can you hear me moan?
Can you listen to my complaint, my mournful plea?
You caught me under false pretenses
You tricked me into believing something that wasn't true
How long before you let me go?
How much longer will you hold me captive before releasing me?
You set my soul alight
You ignited passion within me
Glaciers melting in the dead of night
Natural disasters occuring, chances of survival questionable
And the superstars sucked into the super massive
Even the most prominent people cannot escape the overwhelming force
I thought I was a fool for no one
I believed I was unaffected by other's opinions
Oh baby, I'm a fool for you
Now I realize I am under your spell, taken in by you
You're the queen of the superficial
Your power and influence is based only on trivial things
And how long before you tell the truth?
When will you be honest and reveal your true self?
Super massive black hole
The unstoppable force that pulls everything towards it
You set my soul alight
You ignited my passion once again
You set my soul alight
You reignited the spark within me
Glaciers melting in the dead of night
The dangers and threats are increasing, and the sense of hopelessness is profound
And the superstars sucked into the super massive
Even the most accomplished and famous people are being engulfed by the overwhelming force
You set my soul alight
You reignited the flame in me once more
Glaciers melting in the dead of night
The dangers and risks are getting larger, and the opportunities to survive are reducing
And the superstars sucked into the super massive
Even the most distinguished and virtuous people are being overtaken by the inevitable force
