A quiet desperation
with Madison Avenue
too much space inside my head (all the media fascination)
Paparazzi swarming
watching - entertaining.
"the bigger they are the harder they fall"

Icons are raging now...

As solid as the quicksand
Set ourselves up for the kill.
Gonna die out with those legends?
(All of the rhythm of life)
Face to face, we feel -understand
Icons our moral wasteland

"the bigger they are the harder they fall"
Icons are raging now.

chorus:
I can't believe them all
nothing is truth
I'm never gonna hear them straight
Listen.

Icons are raging now, but they're fading fast
and they will die for the kill -
Icons.

An image in their likeness
They're all counting blood money...

They're rising out of nowhere
as masses play their anthem
Objects of affection
watch them go...

They rise out of nothingness -Icons.
