Paper airplanes (makeshift wings) (demo version)


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.
('Till 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, 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 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, 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 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

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

Thank you because you correct this lyrics

Biografia

AFI (an acronym for A Fire Inside) is an American punk rock band formed in California in 1991. The founding members are vocalist Davey Havoc, guitarist Mark Stopholese, drummer Adam Carson and bassist Vic Chalker, who was later replaced by Geoff Kresge and subsequently by Hunter Burgan. AFI has gone through several musical phases, starting with a hardcore punk sound to evolve towards darker and more dramatic sounds influenced by gothic rock and industrial. Among the most representative songs are "Miss Murder", "The Leaving Song Pt. II" and "Silver and Cold". The album *Sing the Sorrow* (2003) is considered one of their most important works, thanks to the success of singles like "Girl's Not Grey" and "Death of Seasons".
