And you soar above the peaks
But when the curtain falls
Echo like your vanities
But when the curtain falls
All glories are vain
They give birth to nobody
You return with your shadows
God, glory's mortal
And as the sets collapse
God, glory's cruel
They threw you on the embers
But when the ship sinks
When all the clamors fall silent
You return with your shadows
God, glory's mortal
And as the sets collapse
God, glory's cruel
You return with your shadows
God, glory's mortal
And as the sets collapse
God, glory's cruel
