Description
Pride is a strange currency. You cannot buy love with it, but for some reason you always pay with it. Here, everything seems to be built on stubbornness and quiet despair: standing your ground to the last, even when it has long been clear that your opponent will not take the field. The words sound like an argument in which it no longer matters who is right - just to prove that feelings are still alive, even if in a coma. The music swirls between humility and defiance, like a night in which only one bonfire remains, stubbornly burning despite the rain. And even if everything has long since lost its value, except for one thing: the ability to stand until the end, even if the ‘end’ is just another song.
Lyrics and translation
Original
Got me to stay, said that you need me
Starved 'cause his words don't have a meaning
No, they don't, at least not to me
There'll be a day I'll be more creative
A poetic way to say I'm not leaving
To the world, not to your face, mm
I'll take my pride, stand here for you
No, I'm not blind, just seeing it through
You take my life just for the thrill
I'll take tonight and die on this hill
I always will
I know that I look stubborn, impatient
But you wrote the book, I just took a page out
To be loved, to be loved and nothing more
And you kept your word, do you want a medal?
The way that someone leaves this world is all just levels
To me now, oh, to me now
I'll take my pride, stand here for you
Know I'm not blind, just seeing it through
You take my life just for the thrill
I'll take tonight and die on this hill
I always will
I'll be here the whole night
I'll be here 'cause I can
Yeah, I know you don't care
I know nothing could matter
God, I wish something mattered to you
I'll take my pride, stand here for you
Know I'm not blind, just seeing it through
You take my life just for the thrill
Well, I'll take tonight and die on this hill
I always, always
I always will
