[Intro]
N.C.
One of the saddest things about the modern world is that people live
in a tiny time slice which they carry forward with them. Nothing remains.
N.C.
The centuries to them are completely dark. Just un-illumined corridors 
through which they stagger into a single little sliver of light.
N.C.
Every great civilization has a record of a period of a golden age,
when there was no war, no dispute, no lying.
[Verse 1]
EmIt's not by shunning darkness that you'll know light
Not holy fields of wood alive, of stone alive
EmAnd up in the rooms of your barren house
You're reassembling language to keep realities out
[Verse 2]
EmI know your credentials, and I know you'll tell
In this game of reeds, in the logic of the spell
EmMy burning attachment to contingencies
For who wills the end, may will the means
[Chorus]
BmWhen it's only Cfools and fireEmbrand (Kali yuga, uber alles)
BmThe books of Claw in the arsonist's Emhands (Kali yuga, uber alles)
BmPretend to know Cme, and I'll pretend to Emcare (Kali yuga, uber alles)
BmAnd nothing lastsC, that hesitates out Emthere
[Verse 3]
EmTime to collect the stones, and what our guards left behind
Stray out of being, and out of time
EmI know your credentials, I know your tell
Embracing that death you know so well
[Chorus]
BmWhen it's only Cfools and fireEmbrand (Kali yuga, uber alles)
BmThe books of Claw in the arsonist's Emhands (Kali yuga, uber alles)
BmPretend to know Cme, and I'll pretend to Emcare (Kali yuga, uber alles)
BmAnd nothing lastsC, that hesitates out Emthere
BmWhen it's only Cfools and fireEmbrand (Kali yuga, uber alles)
BmThe books of Claw in the arsonist's Emhands (Kali yuga, uber alles)
BmPretend to know Cme, and I'll pretend to Emcare (Kali yuga, uber alles)
BmAnd nothing lastsC, that hesitates out Emthere
[Spoken Finnish]
BmJätän sinut kaaokseesi
CJoka ei ole enää osani
EmSillä olen myrskyn silmässä
Olen sen elävä keskus
EmOlen muinainen järjestys
Ja mikä on Kaaosta on minulle toisarvoista
EmSen maailman riekaleita
Joka ei enää koske minua

[Intro]

N.C.

One of the saddest things about the modern world is that people live

in a tiny time slice which they carry forward with them. Nothing remains.

N.C.

The centuries to them are completely dark. Just un-illumined corridors

through which they stagger into a single little sliver of light.

N.C.

Every great civilization has a record of a period of a golden age,

when there was no war, no dispute, no lying.

[Verse 1]

It's not by shunning darkness that you'll know light

Not holy fields of wood alive, of stone alive

And up in the rooms of your barren house

You're reassembling language to keep realities out

[Verse 2]

I know your credentials, and I know you'll tell

In this game of reeds, in the logic of the spell

My burning attachment to contingencies

For who wills the end, may will the means

[Chorus]

Bm C Em

When it's only fools and firebrand (Kali yuga, uber alles)

Bm C Em

The books of law in the arsonist's hands (Kali yuga, uber alles)

Bm C Em

Pretend to know me, and I'll pretend to care (Kali yuga, uber alles)

Bm C Em

And nothing lasts, that hesitates out there

[Verse 3]

Time to collect the stones, and what our guards left behind

Stray out of being, and out of time

I know your credentials, I know your tell

Embracing that death you know so well

[Chorus]

Bm C Em

When it's only fools and firebrand (Kali yuga, uber alles)

Bm C Em

The books of law in the arsonist's hands (Kali yuga, uber alles)

Bm C Em

Pretend to know me, and I'll pretend to care (Kali yuga, uber alles)

Bm C Em

And nothing lasts, that hesitates out there

Bm C Em

When it's only fools and firebrand (Kali yuga, uber alles)

Bm C Em

The books of law in the arsonist's hands (Kali yuga, uber alles)

Bm C Em

Pretend to know me, and I'll pretend to care (Kali yuga, uber alles)

Bm C Em

And nothing lasts, that hesitates out there

[Spoken Finnish]

Jätän sinut kaaokseesi

Joka ei ole enää osani

Sillä olen myrskyn silmässä

Olen sen elävä keskus

Olen muinainen järjestys

Ja mikä on Kaaosta on minulle toisarvoista

Sen maailman riekaleita

Joka ei enää koske minua
