about
This song has a sarcastic take on the state of our society and on our generation that is slowly becoming a part of a rat race without having the concern regarding some of the basic needs in life. We are all caught up in the web of earning money and forget about the real meaning of life as we base our promises on false truth. As we look up to a fake upwards "North" on profit curves and try to be the "Jack" of all trades, we realise that this is really not society as it should function - but a battlefield.
The song started off with a "Indianized" riff composed by Ugyal and gradually evolved as each of the band members had a significant contribution to compliment it. This song marks the comeback of Dark Project into the independent music circuit after a break of almost close to 2 years.

lyrics
One soul fighting hard,
One to raise champagne
Branded with unrest
Does the heart beat the same?
We are a generation
Carrying this shame.
Sleepless nights of thoughts
To start a fight again.
No sense to cut round the corner.
Small steps that rise so higher.
Jack makes all his moves
To squeeze the world that he took.
One glimpse of tragedy
And turn our backs - we all are liars.
Never give nor we spare
Smile that wished to be there.
In this story fairies will die.
The evil side is north and everything's bright.
To die for freedom or for name.
Pick your side up - we'll play this game.
Higher, higher, we climb on fallen bodies.
Liar, liar, sweet words that we speak. Higher, higher, we climb on fallen bodies.
Fire, fire, burns now beneath my feet.
What answers can we give
To a generation that follows?
We'll file all our deeds
In blood red hands and dirty feet.
This tale is not for the weak.
Death took a toll on the fairies.
One pass to evil side,
One leads North and one is bright.
Did we all listen, did we all try?
One is for money and the rest is for pride.
You always look to the other side.
The sea looks calm but wait till the tide.
Higher, higher, we climb on fallen bodies.
Liar, liar, sweet words that we speak.
Higher, higher, we climb on fallen bodies.
Fire, fire, burns now beneath my feet.
Jump, to touch the sky, to live a life, that's all we try.
Faith of what is left behind, yeah one more try, one more try.
Did we all listen, did we all try?
One is for money and the rest is for pride.
You always look to the other side.
The sea looks calm but wait till the tide.
Higher, higher, we climb on fallen bodies.
Liar, liar, sweet words that we speak.
Higher, higher, we climb on fallen bodies.
Fire, fire, burns now beneath my feet.
One to raise champagne
Branded with unrest
Does the heart beat the same?
We are a generation
Carrying this shame.
Sleepless nights of thoughts
To start a fight again.
No sense to cut round the corner.
Small steps that rise so higher.
Jack makes all his moves
To squeeze the world that he took.
One glimpse of tragedy
And turn our backs - we all are liars.
Never give nor we spare
Smile that wished to be there.
In this story fairies will die.
The evil side is north and everything's bright.
To die for freedom or for name.
Pick your side up - we'll play this game.
Higher, higher, we climb on fallen bodies.
Liar, liar, sweet words that we speak. Higher, higher, we climb on fallen bodies.
Fire, fire, burns now beneath my feet.
What answers can we give

We'll file all our deeds
In blood red hands and dirty feet.

Fire, fire, burns now beneath my feet.
