Lyrics
Arcades (Of Glass)
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
The iron was conscious, it
knew what it was doing -
the arcing girders,
they knew -
"We are strong" they thought,
"We hold the sky - we
hold it back".
Clean lines, clean joins.
"Our Art
is Beauty;
Look at us
- can such economy
be dumb?"
Arcades of Glass;
the liquid testament
of Class.
