From The Sky

Progress versus risk

Chaos and control

A sluggish titan's brisk

Descent international

A completely unremarkable excursion across the ocean

Caught the eye of the world

Technology expanded rapidly with great devotion

From the sky, from the world at large

There's fire on both sides of the door

And fire's a good disciple, but wicked master

Paralyzed in time

Colourized and brilliant

The future paradigm

Would prove to be resilient

A completely flawed analysis of future tech's tenacity

Caught the eye of the world

As their hopes and dreams took fire right before their eyes

Winds of change blow the whole worldwide

With the swiftness of a flash

It was captured in a photograph

When transitory memory became permanent

And we remember always

As they pour us into molds

We remember because

We're malleable as gold

Malleable as gold

Malleable as gold

Fireball and tower

Conceal the swastika

Which might have served to sour

Our desired erotica

A completely overlooked detail

Omission is deception

Retract, denied by the world

Emblazoned on the rudders

And plastered on the tail

It might have caught the eye of the world

The biggest things that I cannot remember

The little things that I cannot forget about when I'm alone in bed

A picture might make my memory better

No matter how much I might regret the fact, it gets into my head

So take my picture, I'm decomposing

Make it a solemn silhouette

Cause this time is no different

It might help you not forget my feeble voice

So take my picture as I burn

And print it out for all to see

Because words are wind

But the image impacts our collective memory

So take my picture, I'm decomposing

Make it a solemn silhouette

Cause this time is no different

It might help you not forget

So take my picture as I burn

And print it out for all to see

Because words are wind

But the image impacts our collective memory
