Pride

Don’t try to fool me, dear
Don’t force yourself and shed a tear
For now I’m strong care no more
Even if my heart to pieces was torn

I care no more, because pride comes first
After it, let all things be cursed
Love, friendship, and all other things
Reign last when pride’s hell first sings

So let’s drink to pride and forget our dream
I can clearly visualize how hard it seems
But this is life always so cruel
It curses all to bless pride’s rule.
