Ancient World - Abney Park

The ancient world is crumbling

Replaced with synthetic blend

If we don’t do something soon

Mankind’s last beauty will end

This palace withstood the test of time

This mosque endures all days

Now stand by for the dynamite

For the shopping malls we make way

We run to the end and the future follows

We run to the end from bleak tomorrows

We run to the end and the future follows

We run to the end from bleak tomorrows

We once knew how to sculpt

Aesthetic society

But now we dream of the end of days

And the sprawl of big city

Even if you could stop this plague of man

Go back to a time of space

We’d still rush forth from this filthy life

Horrific deconstructive race

We run to the end and the future follows

We run to the end from bleak tomorrows

We run to the end and the future follows

We run to the end from bleak tomorrows

The ancient world is crumbling

Replaced with synthetic blend

If we don’t do something soon

Mankind’s last beauty will end

This palace withstood the test of time

This mosque endures all days

Now stand by for the dynamite

For the shopping malls we make way

We run to the end and the future follows

We run to the end from bleak tomorrows

We run to the end and the future follows

We run to the end from bleak tomorrows

We run to the end and the future follows

We run to the end from bleak tomorrows

We run to the end and the future follows

We run to the end from bleak tomorrows

We run to the end and the future follows

We run to the end from bleak tomorrows

We run to the end and the future follows

We run to the end from bleak tomorrows
