Abney Park - Ancient World

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 fall of big city

Even if you could stop this plague of man
Go back to a time of space
It 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
