herod - the girl with a balloon lyrics

Loading...

do not turn to idols
or make gods of cast metal for yourselves
an image is no more responsible (such grounded abuse)
than a weapon is for murder

reoccurring historical vandalisation
for pious/political rationalisation
the obliterated latter, denied by the successor
a byzantine world, theological debate
of the church and the state

imperial legislation spanned a century
barred production and the use of figured imagery
yet the cross was most accepted simultaneously
nicaеa and constantinople
icons both destroyed and plastеred over
wat mahathat in ayutthaya, merely one remains
enveloped in roots as nature reclaims
and yet paradoxically, historical and modern destruction of art is a testament
to the power of image

the girl with a balloon
under attack
some seek to bring it
the girl with a balloon
it’s only a statement
it’s only a statement
falling asleep
it’s only a statement
falling asleep
it’s only a statement
falling asleep
it’s only a statement
falling asleep
it’s only a statement
falling asleep
