Lyrics
[Intro]
Oh, yeah
[Verse 1]
I will not apologise for the bastards that I've been
And I will not romanticise all the darkness I have seen
I cannot philosophise on tales of the unknown
'Cause I have come to realise that we fight these wars alone
[Chorus]
Our existence is a plague
We're a virus lost in time
When it all goes up in flames
The fire at the centre of the earth is mine
[Verse 2]
How am I to sympathise with fools that steal my time?
'Cause I'm not one to empathise with stars that refuse to shine
They say we'll revolutionise the endeavours of mankind
But we don't even realise we left the world behind
[Chorus]
Our existence is a plague
We're a virus lost in time
When it all goes up in flames
The fire at the centre of the earth is mine
[Verse 3]
Who are you to criticise the things we understand?
Are you here to exorcise the wickedness of man?
Who decides and specifies the souls that should be saved
When we're all institutionalised from the cradle to the grave?
[Chorus]
Our existence is a plague
We're a virus lost in time
When it all goes up in flames
The fire at the centre of the earth is mine
[Outro]
The fire at the centre of the earth is mine
The fire at the centre of the earth is mine
The fire at the centre of the earth is mine
The fire at the centre of the earth is mine
