AFI Paper Airplanes (Makeshift Win) Lyrics

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)
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)
See them wave
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)
See them wave
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)

STOP

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)
See them wave
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)
See them wave
and watch them burn
