Fire Escape
Eternal Yearning: Unveiling the Heartache in Diane Birch's 'Fire Escape'
Lyrics
Goodbye my love
Expressing farewell to a loved one
I'll be seeing you when the lights go
Anticipating a reunion when the lights dim
When I put my head on the pillow
Reflecting on the separation while lying in bed
I'll think of you
Committing to thoughts of the departed loved one
My crimson dove
Referring to the loved one as a symbol of deep affection
Wish that I could save you from the sadness
Desiring to protect the loved one from sorrow
Honey, all around me lies the madness
Surrounded by chaos and acknowledging the madness
Ooh, of your love
Expressing the pain of losing the loved one
What makes the price good enough to wanna pay?
Pondering the worthiness of the emotional cost
What makes the hurt go away?
Questioning what can alleviate the pain
Fire escape when all that I can do is ache
Seeking refuge in a metaphorical "fire escape" during emotional distress
Since you've gone away, you've gone away
Acknowledging the departure and the resulting ache
My bleeding heart
Describing a wounded and pained heart
It ain't gonna be the same without you
Expressing the irreplaceable void left by the departed
To think of all the shit we've been through
Recalling the challenges faced together
Ooh, I know, I know
Acknowledging the emotional difficulty of the situation
Love makes the price good enough to wanna pay
Considering love as a justification for the emotional toll
But it don't make the hurt go away
Recognizing that love alone cannot erase the pain
Fire escape when all that I can do is ache
Referring again to the metaphorical "fire escape" during anguish
Cause you've gone away, oh you've gone away
Reiterating the profound sense of loss
Oh, go away
Imploring the departed to go away and let the pain dissipate
Let the fire escape, all that I can do is ache
Reiterating the desire for emotional escape in the face of loss
Cause you've gone away, oh you've gone away
Emphasizing the enduring absence of the loved one
