Lyrics:
As I rest beneath this tree, I see all I could be - and more The fruit looks good to eat, but something's whispering - to ignore As the bark digs in my spine, it's racing through my mind - what I could know Could I be like the Divine, and turn water into wine - oh
The Folly of the Fall, to chase the Siren's call I reach to take it all, but it's not there
As I place it on my lips, it dries up to a crisp - I choke Fear has me in its grip, I know I cannot live - or hope
It's illusion slips away, the intoxication fades - to black Now I see it plain as day, this mistake that I have made there's no, going back again
The Folly of the Fall, to chase the Siren's call I reach to take it all, but it's not there
So I believe, the lie: Fulfilling my desires is, my right that if I overthrow I will, not die that no one really cares And so I run, to hide hoping I can disguise, my evil side somehow prolonging this, my breakneck ride that's plunging to my death
The Folly of the Fall, there's no reward at all Yet I cling to what is false, all over again
