The Arsons of Pride Lyrics

I thought I heard truth beneath silence
But there was nothing

I thought there was freedom behind harrasing work
But there was only pain
I thought there was plentitude after the loss of all things
But sadness still prevails

I thought change could happen after destruction
But there is just ruins...

Now, we're going to light fires
The arsons of pride
I'll stare at the fumes and see my reflection
Is there a rift we're not falling in?
Is there pain without a face?
There is no fervour without jealousy
No piety without remorse

In the arsons of pride
Suddenly my life has turned to sepia
And unknown people suddenly look familiar
I'm staring at their bruised eyes
And I read the scriptures of the absence

Invent thousand fables
In this ocean of disgrace I'll be your foam

Give me less for everything
Turn away from guilt
One-eyed still see...
