icons have fallen
The icons have fallen.
Watching them burn
Feeling their insanity
The neon turns
The lies are sullen
They have sold their souls
The media for the masses
They wear the crowns
They hang upon the crosses
They beg and plead
The prayers are insane
Inscribed upon a liar's brow
The icons have fallen
The stadium is in silence
Feeling the hum of the fluorescence
The cracked and ruined ground
Watching the falling bodies
The night is interrupted
The gods are gone
The media & the world of wars
The icons have fallen
