An icon (from Greek εἰκών eikōn "image") is a religious work of art, most commonly a painting, from Eastern Christianity and in certain Eastern Catholic churches. More broadly the term is used in a wide number of contexts for an image, picture, or representation; it is a sign or likeness that stands for an object by signifying or representing it either concretely or by analogy, as in semiotics; by extension, icon is also used, particularly in modern culture, in the general sense of symbol — i.e. a name, face, picture, edifice or even a person readily recognized as having some well-known significance or embodying certain qualities: one thing, an image or depiction, that represents something else of greater significance through literal or figurative meaning, usually associated with religious, cultural, political, or economic standing.
Throughout history, various religious cultures have been inspired or supplemented by concrete images, whether in two dimensions or three. The degree to which images are used or permitted, and their functions — whether they are for instruction or inspiration, treated as sacred objects of veneration or worship, or simply applied as ornament — depend upon the tenets of a given religion in a given place and time.

You didn't say I'd be blind
Without them
Icons, feed the fires
Icons, falling from the spires
Thine eyes rain down from heaven
You always said I'd be blind
Without them
Icons, feed the fires
Icons, falling from the spires
Icons, feed the fires
Icons, falling from the spires
Those words hang like vicious spittle
Dribbling from that tongue
Close your eyes to your lies
Force feed more pious meat
Those nebulous codes and disciplines
Stick in that new born throat
Instill a lie, an artificial eye
To view a perfect land
Icons, feed the fires
Icons, falling from the spires
Icons, feed the fires
Icons, falling from the spires
Can I stick skewers in my skin
And whirl a dervish spin?
Can I set myself on fire
To prove some kind of desire?
Icons, feed the fires
Icons, falling from the spires
Icons, feed the fires
Icons, falling from the spires
The guilt is golden
The guilt is golden
Those ageless lies
The shuttered eyes
It's the night piece
It's the icon
Icons, feed the fires
Icons, falling from the spires
Icons, feed the fires
Icons, falling from the spires
The guilt is golden
The guilt is golden
Golden, golden
