AFI LYRICS

"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 fashon, 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.
(Waves of plastic fame, drying up.)
You're going out, going out, forever unknown.
( Because you're dying to be free, forever unknown)

From up above, a wave of ashes will be decending,
but we'll just let it burn.
Anathema, I will remain so in my seclusion,
i'll watch it 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.
(Waves of plastic fame, drying up.)
You're going out, going out, forever unknown, unknown.
(Because you're dying to be free, forever unknown)

From up above, a wave of ashes will be decending,
but we'll just let it burn.
Anathema, I will remain so in my seclusion,
i'll watch it burn.

Dancing in the rain of decending ash, dancing on your grave,
I'll see you.
(All falling)
Dancing in the rain of decending ash, dancing in your dust,
I'll see you.
(all falling)

STOP!

I'd stop it, had you a heart.
(YOUR HEART!)
I'd stop it, had you a heart.
(YOUR HEART!)

From up above, a wave of ashes will be decending,
but we'll just let it burn.
Anathema, I will remain so in my seclusion,
i'll watch it burn.

From up above, a wave of ashes will be decending,
but we'll just let it burn.
Anathema, I will remain so in my seclusion,
i'll watch it burn.

I'll, watch you!
