Burned
Embers of Love: A Melodic Tale of Heartache and Redemption
Lyrics
On a Tuesday in December
Setting the scene, a specific moment in time, possibly symbolic of a significant event.
When you walked out I remember
Recollection of a past event when the person walked out.
You were smiling as you turned 'round
The person left with a smile, creating a lasting memory.
In the hallway, lingered in the doorway
Details about the departure, lingering in the doorway, implying hesitance or a prolonged goodbye.
Still the words you said to me
The impact of words spoken in the past, reflecting on how things used to be.
They make me think of how we used to be
Reflecting on the past and how the words echo the previous relationship.
Hand to my heart
Expressing a desire to be the one who learns and grows in the relationship.
I want to be the one who always learned
Continuation of the desire to be a constant learner in the relationship.
She says You're just like the sun
Comparing the person to the sun, possibly representing warmth and brightness.
I get so burned when you are close to me
Feeling emotional pain or vulnerability when the person is close.
In the back room of a mansion
Changing the scene to a private space where deception is being planned.
You are planning your deception
Highlighting the deceitful nature of the situation.
Always calling, never phoning
Emphasizing the lack of direct communication in the relationship.
I'm a victim of another's war
Feeling like a victim in someone else's conflict or struggle.
Still the words you said to me
Reiteration of impactful words echoing in the person's mind.
Come ringing in your silent symphony
Describing the impact of words as a silent symphony, emphasizing their lingering effect.
Hand to my heart
Repeating the desire to be a constant learner in the relationship.
I want to be the one who always learned
Continuing the theme of personal growth and learning in the relationship.
She says You're just like the sun
Reiterating the comparison of the person to the sun and the emotional impact it brings.
I get so burned when you are close to me
Expressing the emotional pain experienced when the person is close.
And still it hurts so bad
Acknowledging ongoing emotional pain despite expectations of healing.
I thought I'd get on over on you
Unexpectedly still struggling to move on from the person.
And still I hope you're sad
Expressing a conflicted hope for the other person's sadness, indicating complex emotions.
Deserving more than anyone
Believing the other person deserves unhappiness more than anyone else.
I could give you one reason
Suggesting there's a single reason for the situation but not explicitly stating it.
You could be my winning season
Expressing a desire for a positive turn in the relationship, possibly a reconciliation.
All the things we could have been just fell away
Reflecting on missed opportunities and what could have been in the relationship.
Hand to my heart
Reiterating the desire to be a constant learner and grow emotionally in the relationship.
I want to be the one who always learned
Continuation of the theme of personal growth and learning in the relationship.
She says You're just like the sun
Reiterating the comparison of the person to the sun and the emotional impact it brings.
I get so burned when you are close to me
Expressing the emotional pain experienced when the person is close, echoing earlier sentiments.
