Before the Fall
Unveiling the Precarious Pride: Before the Fall
Lyrics
Before a single thought is granted
Anticipating events before any conscious consideration
We do anything we're told
Compliance without questioning or resistance
Perception turns to truth so fast
Perception transforms into accepted reality swiftly
In the eye of whom beholds
In the view of the observer
One among many
Individuality fades in a collective context
Our identities dissolve
Loss of personal identity
This false sense of safety
A deceptive feeling of security
The pride before the fall
Overconfidence preceding a downfall
Before the fall
Highlighting the impending decline
There will be consequences
Consequences are inevitable
After the conceit
After the arrogance or self-importance
No chance for mutual understanding or resolution
For the blind and the deceived
Especially for those who are oblivious and misled
The lengths that we'd all go to
Extent of denial to avoid necessary transformation
To deny the necessity for change
Refusal to acknowledge the need for change
Self righteousness fuels the inertion
Self-righteousness contributes to inertia
That'll come to seal our fate
Leading to a destiny that will be sealed
Before the fall
Reiterating the theme of decline and collapse
