Hands are stained from the years of dirt
Hear the hounds, but they never learn
Type of soul if you ever trust
Then you'll meet the dust
You won't get far running from a curse
No turning back all the bridges burned
Sure can't lose what they never loved
Think they can't be touched

Pride comes before the fall
Pride comes before the fall

It's a different view when you're at the top
Castles laid where the blood was lost
Trying to hide all the wicked hours
In your rise to power
A heart can't beat with veins of filth
It's dog eat dog kill or be killed
I wish I could tell you that you'll be alright
When the reaper comes tonight

Pride comes before the fall
(The fall, fall)
Pride comes before the fall
(The fall, fall)

Pride comes before the fall
(The fall, fall)
Pride comes before the fall

It's a long way down
It's a long way down
It's a long way down
It's a long way down

Ashes to ashes
Dust to dust
They'll say good riddance when you're in the mud

Ashes to ashes
Dust to dust
Ashes to ashes
Dust to dust
They'll say good riddance when you're in the mud

Ashes to ashes
Dust to dust

Pride comes before the fall
(The fall, fall)
Pride comes before the fall

Pride comes before the fall
(The fall, fall)
Pride comes before the fall

It's a long way down
It's a long way down
It's a long way down
It's a long way down
Pride comes before the fall
It's a long way down
The fall, the fall
The fall, the fall
