What If There's A Fire
Yearning Amidst Flames: Existential Reflections in 'What If There's A Fire'
Lyrics
There's gonna be a fire
Anticipation or prediction of a forthcoming fire.
No one's left alive, left alive
Speculation about everyone perishing in the fire.
Well I've got my life and I've got a brain but I've got nowhere to go
Expressing possession of life and intellect but feeling directionless.
I might as well be on fire
Suggesting a sense of being consumed or overwhelmed, as if already on fire.
I dream of little things, of stupid little things
Daydreaming about trivial or inconsequential things.
You could say I'm a liar
Admitting to dishonesty or deceitful behavior.
Fire? Where?
Questioning the existence or location of the fire.
No one's left alive, left alive
Reiteration of the potential lack of survivors in the fire.
Well I've got my life and I've got a brain but I've got nowhere to go
Restating possession of life and intellect but emphasizing aimlessness.
I might as well be on fire
Reiterating a feeling of being engulfed or without purpose.
I dream of kitchen counters in South America
Imagining mundane scenes in a specific location (South America).
You could say I am tired
Acknowledging weariness or fatigue.
There's gonna be a fire
Repeating the anticipation or prediction of an impending fire.
Hey you!
Calling attention to someone with an exclamation.
No one's left alive, left alive
Restating the speculation about everyone perishing in the fire.
Well I've got my life and I've got a brain but I've got nowhere to go
Reiterating possession of life and intellect while feeling directionless.
I might as well be on fire
Emphasizing a sense of being consumed or overwhelmed, as if already on fire.
I dream of little things, of stupid little things
Daydreaming again about trivial or inconsequential things.
You could say I'm a liar
Reiterating admission to dishonesty or deceitful behavior.
Huh!
An exclamation, possibly expressing surprise or realization.
Yep.
An affirmative response or agreement.
