Beyond The Labyrinth

Beyond The Labyrinth - (Tearing Down The) Icons songtekst

Je score:

The churches and the monasteries invaded by iconoclasts
that tore the statues to the ground
 
Ancient sandstone Buddha - silent witness of the past
a cloud of dust as it was taken down
 
Tearing down the icons - Tearing down the signs
Symbols disappear when worlds collide

From Stettin to Trieste the curtain fell, after the wall
history rewritten after all
 
In the heart of New York City collapsing towers - as foretold
we watched as we saw history unfold
 
Tearing down the icons - Tearing down the signs
Symbols disappear when worlds collide
 
'Cinq & quarante degré ciel bruslera, 
Feu approucher de la grand cité neufue,
Instant grand flamme esparse saultera'.

burn the books - burn the symbols - burn the icons - burn the signs
Sacrifice our knowledge as if you never wondered why
 
can you hear the distant call asking you to join the choir
Sacrifice your art and soul just to fuel the burning bonfire
 
Did we fail to see the omens ? Did we fail to look behind ?
Did we fail to see the changes ? Did we fail to see the signs ?
 
is this ever changing world to last? Is the future like the past ?
what´s the reason for the rhyme ? can you see the signs of time ?

 
Tearing down the icons - Tearing down the signs
Symbols disappear when worlds collide

Tearing down the icons - Tearing down the signs
Symbols disappear when worlds collide
