Yearning Flames: Patrick O'Neill's Melodic Reflections
Lyrics
Don't ask too much of me
Expressing a reluctance to handle excessive demands or expectations.
I won't settle in too comfortably
Not willing to get too comfortable or settled in a situation.
I'll keep running my mouth so insufferably
Continuing to speak in an annoying or intolerable manner.
About every single one of my dumb beliefs
Talking about one's foolish beliefs or ideas.
I won't ask too much of you
Not expecting too much from someone else, just seeking support.
Just to hold my hand and see me through
Asking for a simple gesture of assistance, like holding hands.
Cause I can't do it by myself
Admitting an inability to handle things alone.
I don't wanna set the world on fire I just want it to burn
Repetition emphasizing the desire for destruction without actively causing it.
I don't wanna set the world on fire I just want it to burn
-I don't wanna set the world on fire I just want it to burn
-I don't wanna set the world on fire I just want it to burn
-Don't ask too much of people
Advising against expecting too much from people due to their negative qualities.
They're evil little cowards and horrible creatures
Describing people as cowardly and unpleasant creatures.
They don't know any better so they always hurt each other
Explaining their tendency to hurt each other due to ignorance.
Then the guilt cuts deep so they sit alone and suffer
Resulting in guilt and isolation due to the pain caused.
Both my feet got stuck in the cement that they poured
Metaphorically stuck in a situation created by others' actions.
I wonder why they did it right outside of my front door
Questioning the reason behind the negative situation affecting the persona directly.
Now the bloods cut off
Feeling disconnected and numb due to the situation's impact.
And I can't feel a thing
Experiencing a lack of sensation or emotional connection.
So I'll wait right here till the doorbell rings
Waiting for an external event to prompt action to return inside.
So I can go back in
Desiring to return to a familiar place despite changes.
To the same old porch that I've always known
Noticing drastic changes in a familiar environment.
But every piece of furniture has turned into stone
Feeling isolated and abandoned in a transformed setting.
And now I'm all alone
Experiencing a sense of loneliness and detachment.
And it feels really weird
Feeling discomfort due to an unusual situation.
And the wind keeps blowing
Symbolizing uncertainty and change through wind blowing.
When I look in the mirror I see a pile of bones
Seeing oneself as a mere skeleton, anticipating disappearance.
Just waiting to disappear to some place called home
Desiring to vanish and find a place perceived as home.
I don't wanna set the world on fire I just want it to burn
Repeated desire for destruction without direct involvement.
I don't wanna set the world on fire I just want it to burn
-I don't wanna set the world on fire I just want it to burn
-I don't wanna set the world on fire I just want it to burn
-We don't talk anymore
Not communicating anymore.
And you don't breath
Metaphorically describing someone's lack of vitality or life.
And I don't feel like before
Expressing a change in feelings or connection.
You knew me
Referencing a past familiarity or understanding between individuals.
Now I can't move
Feeling stuck, stagnant, and unable to move forward.
Now I can't move
-I don't call anymore
-Cause I'm beneath
-The worth of my words
-And this disease
-Now I can't move
-Now I can't move
