World On A Pyre Songtext / Lyric

I saw her pass me by, but she didn't cast a shadow

Did I miss something or am I getting paranoid?

This sure looks like a funeral, a neverending feast.

The pyre is getting bigger in front of me.



She's in a trance amongst them.

Unaware of being helpless

upon the coming of the vultures.

But you can feel it in the air.

The end is coming near.






They keep devouring on and on

until there's nothing left.

They'll end up starving

with their pride of being invincible.



Spontaneous behaviour's all been synchronized.

We're being fed by the hand of fear.

We are content with the state of our decline.

We're just drops in a sea of oblivion.



After the smoke is clearing,

will we be left with nothing?

Will there be a phoenix rising

from the ashes now?

I guess it's up to you.



They keep devouring on and on

until there's nothing left.

They'll end up starving

with their pride of being invincible.
