Lyrics
The world from where I tread
The speaker perceives the world they navigate.
just beyond the break of dawn
They exist in a space just after the beginning of a new day.
follows 'til the end of hope.
This world continues until hope ceases.
So, I hide my heart inside
The speaker protects their emotions, keeping them hidden.
breathe a little fire, I
They try to kindle a spark within themselves.
walk the ice, ablaze alone.
Despite being surrounded by coldness, they journey forward with their inner fire.
The world from where I tread
A repetition emphasizing the speaker's perspective on the world.
just beyond the break of dawn
Reiteration of existing just after the dawn, the beginning.
follows 'til the end of hope.
The continuation of a world tied to hope.
So, I hide my heart inside
They keep their vulnerable feelings concealed.
breathe a little fire, I
The speaker tries to ignite their emotions.
walk the ice, ablaze alone.
They walk through difficult situations, empowered by their inner flame.
Where am I now? I've never been.
The speaker feels lost, in unfamiliar territory.
Won't be home ever again.
They accept that their former home is no longer accessible.
I'll let the fire drown me again,
The speaker lets their passionate nature overwhelm them again.
just before I close my eyes.
Just before succumbing to sleep, they allow their emotions to surface.
The world I walk upon
The world they tread upon is unexpected and beyond their imagination.
world I'd never dreamt to see
They witness a reality they never thought possible.
takes away the tears I shed.
This new world eases their past sorrows.
For I lock my heart away.
The speaker protects their heart from potential hurt by locking it away.
Those who sought me, I renounced.
They've rejected those who sought to connect with them.
Solemn finds me with disgrace.
They feel solemn, accompanied by feelings of disgrace.
Where I will go, I'd never be.
They foresee a place that will always remain unfamiliar.
Tear me up, I still survive.
Despite hardship, they continue to endure.
I'll let the burn wake me alive.
The speaker lets pain awaken them to life.
From the ashes, I arrive.
They emerge stronger from difficult experiences.
The world I walk upon
Reiteration of their experience in this new, unexpected world.
world I'd never dreamt to see
They're confronted with a reality they hadn’t imagined.
takes away the tears I shed.
This world alleviates their past pains.
For I lock my heart away.
They guard their emotions, closing themselves off.
Those who sought me, I renounced.
They've turned away from those who tried to find them.
Solemn finds me with disgrace.
The speaker feels a solemn sense of disgrace.
