Dematerialise Songtext
A thousand memories fade
A crescendo drifts into decay
Each revolutionon the clock a deconstruction
Replaced by prosaic certainty
Etched into stone
A name, not lost but forgotten
A generation will remember
But time will fade the memory
What am I?
The frames I fill? The name I leave?
Cast my learnings in ink?
Pages turn, but for how long?
Etched into stone
A name, not lost but forgotten
A generation will remember
But time will fade the memory
What have we to offer?
But immediacy, recounted tales of lore
Where provenance is lost
Vanity′s wretched hold distorts the detail
To touch the heart beyond our reach
A distant memory to those you seek
Painstakingly scribe your name
But legacy is lost with the passing of time
There is no malice in our ambition
Present now in riches, our heritage wanes
A crescendo drifts into decay
Each revolutionon the clock a deconstruction
Replaced by prosaic certainty
Etched into stone
A name, not lost but forgotten
A generation will remember
But time will fade the memory
What am I?
The frames I fill? The name I leave?
Cast my learnings in ink?
Pages turn, but for how long?
Etched into stone
A name, not lost but forgotten
A generation will remember
But time will fade the memory
What have we to offer?
But immediacy, recounted tales of lore
Where provenance is lost
Vanity′s wretched hold distorts the detail
To touch the heart beyond our reach
A distant memory to those you seek
Painstakingly scribe your name
But legacy is lost with the passing of time
There is no malice in our ambition
Present now in riches, our heritage wanes
