Die for You
Burning Devotion: A Song of Sacrifice and Undying Love
Lyrics
I wish that it was simple
The speaker desires simplicity.
I wish there was a way
Expressing a wish for a solution or path.
To fix what I have broken
Acknowledging a need to repair past mistakes.
To change the way I’m made
Expressing a desire for personal transformation.
Cause words they don’t come easy
Communication is challenging for the speaker.
And everything I hate is
Expressing dislike for certain aspects of life.
Listening to the silence
Reflecting on the difficulty of silence.
When there’s a million things to say to you
Feeling overwhelmed with unspoken thoughts and emotions.
I wish you knew
Expressing a desire for the other person to understand.
How hard it is for me to let you know
Difficulty in expressing feelings to the other person.
Cause you don’t know
Not fully aware of the speaker's struggles.
That if the world was on fire
Extreme commitment to protecting the other person.
I’d fight it for you
Willingness to face challenges and adversity for the person.
I’d cry enough water and breath all the fumes
Emotional commitment, showing a willingness to endure.
All the burns and the scars I’d wear like tattoos
Acceptance of emotional and physical scars for the person.
And if it meant dying
Expressing a readiness to sacrifice one's life.
I’d die for you
Affirming a willingness to die for the other person.
Cause I don’t wanna know what
Fear of facing life without the other person.
Living’s like without you
Expressing dependence on the other person.
I can’t do this without you
Highlighting the inability to cope alone.
Oh there’s a million things to say to you
Reiterating the multitude of unspoken feelings.
I wish you knew
Desire for the other person to understand the struggle.
How hard it is for me to let you know
Reiteration of the difficulty in conveying emotions.
Cause you don’t know
Emphasizing the lack of awareness in the other person.
That if the world was on fire
Reaffirming the willingness to face challenges for the person.
I’d fight it for you
Reiterating the commitment to fight for the other person.
I’d cry enough water and breath all the fumes
Expressing a readiness to endure hardships for the person.
All the burns and the scars I’d wear like tattoos
Acceptance of emotional and physical marks for the person.
And if it meant dying
Reaffirming a willingness to sacrifice one's life.
I’d die for you
Final affirmation of the readiness to die for the other person.
