Lyrics
Dark skies over the avenue
Reference to a gloomy atmosphere over the street or path
Just another storm you put me through
Describing another emotional turmoil caused by a storm
And though the raindrops hit the ground
Rainfall symbolizing challenges; implying inevitability
Nothing we can do can stop this fire now
Suggesting that the relationship's intensity cannot be halted
Started with a beat from a jealous heart
Originated from jealousy, leading to conflict
Grew into the words that pushed our world apart
Words causing the separation and emotional distance
And now I'm standing out in the cold
Metaphorically standing outside emotionally
Wishing you had heard me when I told you that
Regret for not being heard or understood
This love will burn away this way
Expressing the intense and consuming nature of love
And this love is over when you say, whoa
Love declared as ended when a certain statement is made
This time and I won't let go
Determination not to let go this time
When the walls come down you'll know I told you so
Predicting a realization when consequences unfold
This love will burn away this way
[Refrain]
I know it's crazy but I can't deny
Acknowledging the craziness of the situation
You shot me in the heart with an alibi
Being deceived with a false excuse or justification
I know I've been a fool a couple times before
Admitting past mistakes driven by desire for more
But I was blinded by the fact that I wanted more
Blinded by longing, unable to see the truth
Now I confess it's getting hotter and I'm quite sure
Confession of escalating intensity and urgency
That I can't make it long enough to find a cure
Feeling time is running out to mend the relationship
And even though I hear you begging me to stay
Hearing pleas but witnessing the love fading away
I'm watching our love burn away
Observing the gradual dissolution of the relationship
Because this love will burn away this way
[Refrain]
And this love is over when you say, whoa
-This time and I won't let go
-The walls come down you'll know I told you so
-This love will burn away this way
-This love will burn away this way
-And this love is over when you say, whoa
-This time and I won't let go
-The walls come down you'll know I told you so
-This love will burn away this way
-This love will burn away this way
