Raise high monolithic statues so fragile as they fall
I am ever enthralled
Gaze lie and smirk time
Your arrogance will suit you well
Til fashion is dispelled

As waves of plastic fame glow out of fashion
Your going out, going out forever unknown
These waves of plastic fame go out of fashion
Your going down, going down forever unknown, unknown

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 it burn

Without habitation, you'll never find a soul inside
No life, but nothings died
No lights, but quite the show
Just as long as no one ever knows
All motion is pantomime

As waves of plastic fame glow out of fashion
Your going out, going out forever unknown
These waves of plastic fame go out of fashion
Your going down, going down forever unknown, unknown

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 it burn

Dancin in the rain of descending ash
Dancin on your grave
I'll see you
Dancin in the rain of descending ash
Dancin on your dust
I'll see you

I'd stop it, had you a heart
I'd stop it, had you a 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 it burn

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 it burn
