And it's ready to pulverize

Better believe what I say because my friend the fire don't lie

And we tire, of feeling awake

So we put the fire out
Acting on the desire to quell the intensity by extinguishing the metaphorical fire.
And we go on with the rest of the day
Moving forward with daily life after extinguishing the fire, implying a return to normalcy.
If you like to live this way you say

Im gonna burn, i might not burn as much as you burn today

I see those eyes, they're burning with hate

But you talk about a heart like using it is not okay

Unless it's for the man

A little Jesus Christ

But i know a heart yea a light just a little more bright

And we tire, of feeling awake, so we put the fire out and you know we just go on with the day
