lyrics

And all those signs
Before your eyes
Are cauterised
By all the lies you can't forgive
Deep in the mines of troubled times
Can we chance upon a different way to live?
A way to live
Must we confess our mortal sins?
Must we dance upon the coals and tear our flesh?
Are we bound tried upside down
Paralysed by all the lies we can't forget?
We can't forget
We can't forget

And all you are
Is all you've wept
For all those those years before
Though forged in stars
We form from scars
And we may never know the purpose of it all

Another christ your chosen one
But like the moon he steals his glory from the sun
A love that burns
A love that kills
Must we bow before a love that makes us ill?
It makes us ill
Makes us ill

And all you are
Is all you've wept
For all those those years before
Though forged in stars
We form from scars
And there may never be a purpose there at all

A child is born
Though men are made
We take our good and bad from all the games we've played
Perfected souls
And holy grails
Must we embark upon a quest that's
bound to fail?
It's bound to fail
It's bound to fail
This ship of fools

But all we are
More than what's kept
From all those years before
We'll take those scars
And make new stars
Even if it's just a cosmic blunder after all
But all we are
More than what's kept
From all those years before
We'll take those scars
And fool the stars
We can sing and dance in wonder at it all

Anthems to the Fall image

Anthems to the Fall Melbourne, Australia

Anthems to the Fall is Andy Papadopoulos.
Content to fly under the radar in numerous projects, re-configurations and musical imaginings since the late 80s. Finally, he’s allowed his amber-tinted solo light to shine with this his own project. His languid laments and soulful tunes are brought to life by some of Melbourne’s finest.
Music based paradigm subversion. ... more
