Listen close, the idol comes to sing
Born of a million broken dreams
A paper god to pay all my sins
A stone reminder of where I have been
Up high the Icon watches
Upon a mound of dirt
Choking on a choir of praises
Toasting its demise
In the wastes the Icon wanders
Brighter than the stars
A symbol to the fading vessels
Reaching from afar
To the well, to take and never leave
A plastic promise, devil in angel's wings
Holy monster, invisible design
False idol, built on tortured minds
