I Am The Arsonist Lyrics

Verse 1
Throwing up with the thought of you two,
How could you do this?
My best friend with my bride,
Now you tell me you are leaving.

Chorus
They'll see your fire through the dark night sky
I hope you're home when I arrive.
If there's a pyre in the afterlife,
I'll be there again to light the match.

Burn

Verse 2
Gasoline and fire is the perfect combination
Light it up,
Burn it down,
Burning my addiction.

Chorus
They'll see your fire through the dark night sky,
I hope you're home when I arrive.
If there's a pyre in the afterlife,
I'll be there again to light the match.

Verse 3
I am the light that warms up your body and sets free the demons inside.
I am the one that never ignores you, that never will let you down.

They'll suspect, but they'll never prove I was there.
In my fate, I feel the wrath of adrenaline (of adrenaline).

It's too hard to run away,
When I watch you stay,
To watch it burn, watch it turn,
Into dust.

(They'll suspect, but they'll never prove I was there.
In my fate, I feel the wrath of adrenaline.)

"If theres a PYRE in the afterlife Ill be there again to light the match"

A pyre is a structure, usually made of wood, for burning a body as part of a funeral rite. As a form of cremation, a body is placed upon the pyre which is then set on fire.

Pyre makes a lot more sense, because you cant do anything to an already-lit fire with a match 0_o lol

this was the last song of this album awaiting lyrics, im guessing cause they weren't the easiest to understand haha but i gave it a shot, might be a mistake or two, if you think so let me know also i completely left out two lines cause i really had no idea, the one after "It's too hard to run away" and the one after "To watch it burn, to watch it churn" if you think you know em let me know and ill be happy to add them and fix any other mistakes

hope this helps

as far as the meaning, i think its pretty obvious his girl cheats on him with his best friend he is furious and says he wants to burn his girl and possibly his friend too? to death he talks about doing this again in the afterlife i wouldnt say this is to be taken literally obviously, just expressing his rage he goes on to say how he was always there for her and that no one will be able to prove he was the one that burned her to death idk thats just how i see it lemme know what you think
