Lyrics

Fire, smoke, bad joke

Experiencing challenges and difficulties symbolized by fire, smoke, and a bad joke.

That's what my life's been turned into

Life has been transformed into a challenging and difficult situation.

Hurt, cry, pray to die

Feeling pain, expressing sorrow, and praying for relief or escape.

That's all that I've got left to do

Having limited options, with only the option to endure the pain.


Without you

Expressing the impact of the absence of someone important.

Every time someone speaks your name

Emotional response to hearing the person's name, causing intense feelings.

I feel my heart go up in flames

Intense emotional reaction, feeling heartache when reminded of the absent person.

Without you

Highlighting the emptiness and solitude without the person.

Nobody's here to see me cry

Being alone in times of sadness and not having someone to console.

Or wipe the teardrops from my eyes

Expressing the absence of support and comfort in times of tears.

Without you

Reiterating the loneliness without the significant person.

I'm the only one I've got left

Being left with oneself as the only source of companionship.

And I can't live with myself

Feeling unbearable guilt and being unable to coexist with one's own actions.

Without you, oh, without you

Reiterating the deep sense of loss and emptiness without the person.


Guilt, shame, I'm to blame

Acknowledging responsibility and remorse for causing pain to the absent person.

For all the pain I put you through

Taking blame for the suffering inflicted on the significant person.

Cold, stoned, mind-blown

Describing a state of emotional numbness and detachment.

There's nothin' left for me to lose

Reaching a point where there's nothing left to lose.


Without you

Repeating the theme of emptiness and solitude without the person.

Every time someone speaks your name

Intense emotional response triggered by hearing the absent person's name.

I feel my heart go up in flames

Emphasizing the heartache and emotional turmoil caused by the absence.

Without you

Being alone in the experience of pain and tears without external support.

Nobody's here to see me cry

Expressing the loneliness and the absence of someone to console the tears.

Or wipe the teardrops from my eyes

Highlighting the lack of external comfort in times of emotional distress.

Without you

Reiterating the loneliness and self-dependence in dealing with the pain.

I'm the only one I've got left

Being left with oneself as the sole remaining support.

And I can't live with myself

Expressing the difficulty of living with one's own actions and their consequences.

Without you, oh, without you

Reiterating the profound sense of loss and emptiness without the person.


Time goes by

Acknowledging the passage of time but still experiencing the emptiness.

Still, I'm

Continuing to live without the significant person despite the passage of time.


Without you

Repeating the theme of existing without the essential person.

Every time someone speaks your name

Emotional response intensifies with the mention of the absent person's name.

I feel my heart go up in flames

Reiterating the heartache and flames of emotion caused by the person's absence.

Without you

Being alone in experiencing the pain, without anyone to witness the tears.

Nobody's here to see me cry

Expressing the solitude and lack of external comfort during moments of crying.

Or wipe the teardrops from my eyes

Highlighting the absence of someone to wipe away the tears.

Without you

Reiterating the loneliness and being the only one left to endure the pain.

I'm the only one I've got left

Being left alone with oneself as the only remaining companion.

And I can't live with myself

Expressing the difficulty of coexisting with one's actions and the resulting pain.

Without you, oh, without you

Reiterating the deep sense of loss and emptiness without the person.
