Abandonfire
Embrace the Flames: Roger Taylor's Anthem of Resilience and Rebellion
Lyrics
Join our army, join our band
Joining the group or community is encouraged.
Join our army and be a real man
Being part of the group is associated with being a strong, genuine individual.
Abandon hope who enter here
Discouragement or warning about entering a challenging situation.
Land of hopelessness and fear
Describing the place as one of despair and fear.
A band of gypsies a band of gold
Reference to a diverse group with potential wealth, but it won't protect you.
Won't save your hide won't save your soul
Wealth or external attributes won't save you in difficult times.
Caught like a fly on the face of the Eiger
Feeling trapped or caught in a challenging situation.
There's a smile on the face of the tiger
Contrast between difficulty and a seemingly positive or confident aspect.

Is this your answer

Join our army and be a real man

The fires of hell would feel ice cold
Hyperbolic statement suggesting extreme discomfort.
As sure as time you'll soon grow old
Assurance that, like time passing, challenges will arise with aging.
Tears of heartache, tears of rage
Expressing sadness and anger from living in a tiresome era.
From living in a tiring age
Reflection on the difficulties of the current age.
Listen to the rhythms of the city life
Encouragement to pay attention to the rhythms of urban life.
Listen to the rhythms of your soul
Encouragement to connect with one's inner rhythms.
Listen to the rustling in the undergrowth
Encouragement to pay attention to subtle signs or instincts.
Follow in their footsteps to your goal
Guidance to follow the path set by others towards a goal.
