Mono Inc. The Book Of Fire Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Wise men and shamans, they all added lines
They all added drawings and spells
Warlocks and witches, sages and signs
There's more between heaven and hell

[Pre-Chorus 1]
Now everything is wasted
The fables and the truth
It's all reduced to rubble
Beyond excuse

[Chorus]
All our race had ever learned
Ever learned 'bout life
A legend told, dateless, old
Lost within one night
All the magic, dead and gone
The wisdom we desire
There was thunder and light
It was raining all night
But it burned with the book of fire

[Verse 2]
Distemper and healing
Science and herbs
Collection of knowledge and charm
Sketches and karma
Potions and rites
Instructions to fortune or harm
[Pre-Chorus 2]
Now everything is wasted
The guidance and the hymns
And we're deaf, dumb, and blind
Ever since

[Chorus]
All our race had ever learned
Ever learned 'bout life
A legend told, dateless, old
Lost within one night
All the magic, dead and gone The wisdom we desire
There was thunder and light
It was raining all night
But it burned with the book of fire

[Bridge]
We cannot turn back the time
We have to live with this disgrace and blame
It's been all written down for us
So we don't have to do the same mistakes again

[Chorus]
All our race had ever learned
Ever learned 'bout life
A legend told, dateless, old
Lost within one night
All the magic, dead and gone
The wisdom we desire
There was thunder and light
It was raining all night
But it burned with the book of fire
[Instrumental Break]

[Pre-Chorus 3]
Now everything is wasted
Too late to make a change
Our history and future
Went up in flames

[Chorus]
All our race had ever learned
Ever learned 'bout life
A legend told, dateless, old
Lost within one night
All the magic, dead and gone
The wisdom we desire
There was thunder and light
It was raining all night
But it burned with the book of fire
