Alabaster Lyrics

She's up in the sky
She's up in the domes
She's up in the sky, up in the dome

I knew a girl who came from Villa-Luz
Had a house filled with
Religious regret and infinite debt,
Heaven's pressure

She's a light in the dark
She's out of the door
She's up in the sky, up in the domes

Alabaster lover
You won't get more
We make each other
You won't get more
You won't get more
We make each other
You won't get more

She's up in the sky and the sky is on fire
She set the whole neighborhood to life
Then the people they'll read out all their names
Run away, run away, run away

And with victory the whole world will be ours
We will build nothing in it
Nothing in it

Alabaster lover
You won't get more
We could make other
You won't get more

Alabaster lover
You won't get more
We made each other
You won't get more

Alabaster lover
We made each other
