Raise high monolithic statues so fragile as they fall
|
I am ever enthralled
|
Gaze, lie and smirk in time, your arrogance will suit you well
|
'Til fashion is dispelled
|
|
As waves of plastic fame go out of fashion
|
You're going out, going out forever unknown
|
These waves of plastic fame go out of fashion
|
(These waves of plastic fame are drying up and I smile)
|
You're going out, going out forever unknown
|
(Because you're dying to become forever unknown, unkown)
|
|
From above a rain of ashes descends
|
Anathema I will remain, forever will remain
|
From below, in my seclusion
|
Look up to the sky to see paper wings and watch them burn
|
|
Without habitation, you'll never find a soul inside
|
No life, but nothing's died
|
No lights, but quite the show (Just as long as no one ever knows
|
All motion is pantomime)
|
|
As waves of plastic fame go out of fashion
|
You're going out, going out forever unknown
|
These waves of plastic fame go out of fashion
|
(These waves of plastic fame are drying up and I smile)
|
You're going out, going out forever unknown
|
(Because you're dying to become forever unknown, unkown)
|
|
From above a rain of ashes descends
|
Anathema I will remain, forever will remain
|
From below, in my seclusion
|
Look up to the sky to see paper wings and watch them burn
|
|
Dancing in the rain of descending ash
|
Dancing on your grave, I'll see you all falling
|
Dancing in the rain of descending ash
|
Dancing in your dust, I'll see you all falling
|
I'd stop it, had you a heart (your heart)
|
I'd stop it, had you a heart (your heart)
|
|
From above a rain of ashes descends
|
Anathema I will remain, forever will remain
|
From below, in my seclusion
|
Look up to the sky to see paper wings and watch them burn
