It's about committing arson to something he owns, so it's not really illegal, but immoral. He blames it on 'a rush of blood to the head' and I think he means adrenaline.
After it's over with he feels remorse and just wants to get out of the place.
By saying 'and I know the mistakes that I've made; see it all disappear without trace' he means he knows what he's done, but with arson, there is very little evidence.
That's just my basic interpretation- being a crime scene analyst.
