Mother Nature
Eternal Dance with Mother Nature's Flames
Lyrics
I’ll try to make it last for you
The speaker will attempt to prolong something for the listener.
But I’m getting hot and I know you’re too
The speaker acknowledges increasing heat and assumes the listener feels the same.
And this fire’s burning all our oxygen
A metaphorical fire is consuming the available oxygen, possibly representing a destructive force.
When you would walk you would turn my head
The listener's actions used to captivate the speaker.
And when I’d speak you’d listen
A mutual exchange of attention and communication used to exist.
I gave you all I had to give
The speaker has given their maximum effort and resources.
And we would share it
There was a time when the speaker and the listener shared what was given.
If you’re gonna kill me make it fast
If the listener intends harm, the speaker prefers a swift execution.
But know if I die you too shall pass
A warning that if the speaker suffers, the listener will also face consequences.
Cause you’re making me ill
The listener's actions are negatively affecting the speaker's health.
We’re at a standstill
A situation is at a deadlock; no progress is being made.
You try to give me love when I need your will
The listener provides love when the speaker requires a stronger resolve.
I’m doing my best to make this last
The speaker is making an effort to sustain the current state.
So what are you waiting for
A question directed at the listener about their hesitation.
Cause I won’t change while you keep making my body sore
The speaker won't change while the listener continues to cause physical discomfort.
When I fall asleep you follow-suit
During sleep, the listener's influence persists.
And my wake belongs to you
The speaker's waking moments are controlled or influenced by the listener.
All that you see and everything is of me
All that the listener sees and experiences is attributed to the speaker.
But you’re blind and I feel weak
The listener is oblivious, and the speaker feels vulnerable.
I’ll try to make it last for you
A repetition of the commitment to prolong something for the listener.
But I’m getting hot and I know you’re too
Reiteration of the rising temperature and shared discomfort.
And this fire’s burning all our oxygen
The destructive force, metaphorically represented by fire, is still consuming oxygen.
If you’re gonna kill me make it fast
If harm is intended, the speaker prefers a swift demise.
But know if I die you too shall pass
A reminder that consequences will follow if the speaker faces harm.
Cause you’re making me ill
The listener's actions are negatively impacting the speaker's well-being.
We’re at a standstill
No progress is being made; the situation remains stagnant.
You’re giving me love when I need your will
The listener provides love instead of the needed determination.
I’m doing my best to make this last
The speaker continues to exert effort to sustain the current state.
So what are you waiting for
A repeated question questioning the listener's hesitation.
Cause I won’t change while you keep making my body sore
The speaker won't change while the listener continues to cause physical discomfort.
