Fighting Fires
Battling Infernos: Seeking Higher Ground
Lyrics
People try to talk to me,
Resistance to engaging in conversation.
I tell them that their talk is cheap,
Dismissing others' words as insincere or lacking value.
I don't wanna hear it anymore,
Expressing a desire to avoid further discussion.
Pushing and they're pulling me,
Feeling pressured and influenced by external forces.
To where it is they want me to be,
Being directed to a place against personal will.
I've never felt the burn so bad,
Experiencing intense emotional pain or struggle.
Oh I feel the heat,
Sensing intense pressure or confrontation.
Take me to the ocean and drown out the sound,
Seeking solace by immersing oneself in the ocean's calming sounds.
All of the emotion is dragging me down,
Feeling overwhelmed by emotions that weigh heavily.
I've been Fighting Fires too long
Expressing exhaustion from prolonged struggles.
Forgotten what I'm fighting them for,
Forgetting the original purpose or motivation for the fight.
I'm gonna run to the higher ground,
Choosing a higher, safer place to escape challenges.
Get away til it all burns out,
Retreating until the difficulties subside.
I've been fighting fires too long,
Reiterating the weariness from prolonged battles.
And I won't go down in flames,
Determined not to face a disastrous outcome.
No matter how much I try,
Struggling to meet others' expectations or demands.
I never seem to satisfy,
Feeling unfulfilled despite efforts.
I've been shaking at the core,
Experiencing deep internal turmoil.
Circling they prey on me,
Being targeted or hunted by others.
They got me where they want me to be,
Being manipulated into an undesirable situation.
I never felt the burn so bad,
Experiencing intense emotional pain or struggle (repeated theme).
Oh I feel the heat,
Sensing intense pressure or confrontation (repeated theme).
Take me to the ocean and drown out the sound,
Seeking solace by immersing oneself in the ocean's calming sounds (repeated theme).
All of these emotions are dragging me down,
Emotions becoming burdensome and overwhelming.
I've been Fighting Fires too long
Expressing exhaustion from prolonged struggles (repeated theme).
Forgotten what I'm fighting them for,
Forgetting the original purpose or motivation for the fight (repeated theme).
I'm gonna run to the higher ground,
Choosing a higher, safer place to escape challenges (repeated theme).
Get away til it all burns out,
Retreating until the difficulties subside (repeated theme).
I've been fighting fires too long,
Reiterating the weariness from prolonged battles (repeated theme).
But I won't go down in flames,
Determined not to face a disastrous outcome (repeated theme).
When I'm running in the sand,
Running away while facing challenges.
And the tide is coming in,
Confronted by a relentless force or difficulty.
I won't let it take me no,
Resisting succumbing to external pressures.
Cause I'm the master of the land,
Asserting control and mastery over one's life.
I'm the ruler of my sea,
Claiming authority over personal domain.
And I won't let em' break me no,
Refusing to be broken by external forces.
I've been Fighting Fires too long
Expressing exhaustion from prolonged struggles (repeated theme).
Forgotten what I'm fighting them for,
Forgetting the original purpose or motivation for the fight (repeated theme).
I'm gonna run to the higher ground,
Choosing a higher, safer place to escape challenges (repeated theme).
Get away til it all burns out,
Retreating until the difficulties subside (repeated theme).
I've been fighting fires too long,
Reiterating the weariness from prolonged battles (repeated theme).
And I won't go down in flames
Determined not
