The Arsonist
Embers of Betrayal: Unveiling The Arsonist's Dance
Lyrics
And all I heard was
Introduction to a situation, possibly a traumatic event.
Just a sharp violent noise
Describing a loud, abrupt sound.
Then a silence so deafening
Following the noise, a profound and unsettling silence.
You lit the fire
The listener or protagonist accuses someone of starting a fire.
And then you watched it burn
The accused person watched the fire they started.
Begging for help as you screamed
A plea for help from the one in distress.
It's all just for show but you'll never give it up
Recognition that the distress may be a performance but won't end.
You and all your theatrics
Addressing the accused, emphasizing dramatic behavior.
Behavior erratic
Pointing out unpredictable and unstable actions.
You seem to burn every bridge you know
Accusing the person of damaging relationships intentionally.
You're poised for attack
Being ready for confrontation, negative energy.
Your energy jet black
Describing a dark and intense demeanor.
But this is a lesson on letting go
Recognizing the situation as a lesson in releasing attachments.
Give it up
Encouragement to abandon futile efforts.
You've lost all reason
Assertion that reason is lost.
Compassion
Loss of compassion.
Your empathy
Lack of empathy.
Thrive on denial
Thriving on denial of reality.
Deception
Engaging in deception.
And of course greed
Highlighting the presence of greed.
There's no convincing you
Unconvincing attempts to reason with the accused.
That you've warped reality
Accusing the person of distorting reality.
Twisting the narrative to fit what you need it be
Manipulating the narrative to suit personal needs.
See
Reiteration of the observation of dramatic behavior.
You and all your theatrics
Repetition of the address to the accused with emphasis.
Behavior erratic
Restating unpredictable and unstable actions.
You seem to burn every bridge you know
Repeating the accusation of damaging relationships.
You're poised for attack
Reiterating readiness for confrontation and negative energy.
Your energy jet black
Repeating the description of a dark and intense demeanor.
But this is a lesson on letting go
Reiteration of the lesson in letting go.
You are the fire
Attributing the destructive force to the accused.
Consuming everything
Describing the accused as all-consuming.
Setting the city ablaze
Setting a city on fire metaphorically.
Dead stuck in your ways
Being stuck in destructive patterns.
Dead stuck in your
Repeating the idea of being stuck in destructive patterns.
Cold blooded liar
Labeling the accused as a heartless liar.
Preach to your choir
Accusing the person of preaching to a like-minded group.
Can't stack the bodies much higher
Highlighting the inability to hide the consequences of actions.
Your mouth's a funeral pyre
Characterizing the accused's words as destructive.
Give it up
Reiteration of the plea to abandon futile efforts.
Give it up
Repeating the plea to abandon futile efforts.
You and all your theatrics
Repeating the address to the accused with emphasis.
Behavior erratic
Reiterating unpredictable and unstable actions.
You seem to burn every bridge you know
Repeating the accusation of damaging relationships.
You're poised for attack
Reiterating readiness for confrontation and negative energy.
Your energy jet black
Repeating the description of a dark and intense demeanor.
But this is a lesson on letting go
Reiteration of the lesson in letting go.
