House On Fire
Unspoken Inferno: Alexis Lynn's House On Fire Reveals a Soul in Flames
Lyrics
You gon' always do what you want to
You will always act according to your desires.
No matter what anybody tells you
You won't heed advice despite what others say.
Chasing temporary fixes, you won't call it quits
Pursuing short-term solutions without giving up.
Just living to exist, yeah shit
Merely surviving without truly living.
I'm the one who's there on all your bad days
I'm present during your tough times.
But you can't bring yourself to meet me halfway
You're unwilling to make compromises or meet halfway.
I lose sleep, but I love you too much to let you leave
I worry but won't let you go because I care too much.
Your ignorance is bliss
Your unawareness brings you comfort.
And I know that you're not listening
You're not paying attention to what's said.
And I feel so helpless, tryna help you
I feel powerless trying to assist you.
From the outside looking in, yeah
Observing your situation from an external viewpoint.
You're trapped in a house on fire, house on fire
Metaphorically, you're stuck in a crisis.
And it's burning, burning down
The crisis intensifies and consumes you.
You're trapped in a house on fire, house on fire
You're ensnared in the crisis but resist my help.
You won't let me get you out
You prevent me from aiding you.
'Cause it looks to me that you don't wanna be saved
You seem uninterested in being rescued.
I'll just stand here ten feet away
I stand nearby, unable to assist.
Watchin' you, trapped in your house on fire
Helplessly watching you struggle.
Yeah
Emphasizing the inability to comprehend fully.
Maybe I don't know what's best
Perhaps I don't know what's best for you.
And maybe you're not ready yet
Maybe you're not prepared to change.
'Cause it's too hard to deal
Dealing with the issue is too challenging.
Changing the channel when it gets too real
Avoiding reality when it becomes too difficult.
You know how much I care for you
Expressing deep care and concern.
Tell me, how I can be there for you
Asking how to offer support.
I know you don't wanna believe it
Resisting accepting the truth.
But I'm gonna fight with your demons
Willingness to confront inner struggles on your behalf.
Your ignorance is bliss
Your lack of awareness brings comfort.
And I know that you're not listening
You're not attentive to advice.
And I feel so helpless, tryna help you
Feeling incapable of aiding you.
From the outside looking in, oh
Viewing your situation externally.
You're trapped in a house on fire, house on fire
Reiterating being trapped in a crisis.
And it's burning, burning down
The crisis continues to worsen.
You're trapped in a house on fire, house on fire
You're stuck but refuse my assistance.
You won't let me get you out
Denying my help in aiding you.
'Cause it looks to me that you don't wanna be saved
You seem uninterested in being rescued.
I'll just stand here ten feet away
I remain at a distance, unable to assist.
Watchin' you, trapped in your house on fire
Helplessly observing your struggle.
Yeah
Reiterating the crisis and feeling.
Fire, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Emphasizing the crisis.
Fire, yeah, yeah
Stating the crisis.
Watchin' you trapped in your
Watching you stuck in your dilemma.
Fire, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Emphasizing the crisis.
Fire, yeah, yeah, yeah
Reiterating the crisis.
'Cause it looks to me that you don't wanna be saved
Seeming uninterested in rescue.
I'll just stand here ten feet away
Standing helplessly nearby.
Watchin' you, trapped in your house on fire
Observing your struggle.
Your house on fire, fire
Your internal crisis is emphasized.
Fire
Reiterating the internal crisis.
Your house on fire, your house on fire
Emphasizing the internal crisis.
