Lyrics
There's no more wine to drink now
Expressing a lack of resources or options, possibly referring to emotional depletion.
To wash down this bitter taste
Describing an unpleasant situation that needs to be alleviated.
Of a suspicion that is lingering
Hinting at a lingering doubt or mistrust that is noticeable in the person's expression.
And written upon your face
Suggesting that suspicion or unease is evident on the person's face.
Once our hearts were joyous
Recalling a past time when hearts were joyful and love was unrestricted.
With a love that was so free.
Reflecting on a love that was once liberating and unconstrained.
But just as time's against us
Highlighting the challenge posed by time and the inevitability of change.
And whatever will be will be, so
Embracing a philosophical perspective on accepting the uncertain future.
Scatter the Fire
Advocating for a metaphorical scattering of the emotional "fire" or intensity.
Pour some water and cool down the flame
Suggesting the need to calm down intense emotions with a metaphorical cooling element.
It's down to the wire
Emphasizing a critical or decisive moment, implying urgency or pressure.
Nothing's ever gonna be the same
Asserting that things have changed irreversibly and won't return to the way they were.
Scatter the Fire
Reiterating the idea of dispersing or reducing emotional intensity.
Pour some water and cool down the flame
Repeating the need to cool down intense emotions with a metaphorical action.
You know we can't go home
Acknowledging the impossibility of returning to a previous state, prompting the need to move forward.
So we must be moving on
Stressing the necessity of moving on from the current situation.
Scatter the Fire
Reemphasizing the idea of dispersing or reducing emotional intensity.
You know I'll always love you
Affirming a lasting love despite the challenges faced.
Even though this race is run
Acknowledging the completion of a relationship or journey.
And the memories I'll hang on to
Focusing on cherishing positive and righteous memories despite the end of the relationship.
Will be the good and righteous ones
Using the metaphor of embers to convey that although there might be a faint glow, the intense flame of the past won't return.
The embers, they may glow now
Suggesting the idea of letting go of intense emotions and preserving the friendship aspect.
But they're never gonna blaze again
Reiterating that the intense flame of the past won't be rekindled.
So why not let things go and just let the friendship remain
Encouraging acceptance and maintaining a friendship despite the changed dynamics.
Scatter the Fire
Finalizing the theme of scattering the emotional intensity or "fire".
