London's Burning
London's Burning: Embracing Change and Healing
Lyrics
Light a match and watch the smoke as fingers start to burn
Metaphorical description of igniting a situation and witnessing its consequences.
Acting before thinking in this world could hurt
Urges caution, advising against impulsive actions.
Take my hand and we'll wash away the pain
Offering support to overcome suffering or hardship.
The cold may sting but the scarring fades
Acknowledging temporary pain with eventual healing.
Take my hand and we'll wash away the pain
Reiteration of offering support to overcome suffering.
The cold may sting but the scarring fades
Reiterating acknowledgment of temporary pain and healing.
Don't say you will never change
Encouragement for openness to change.
The Sun lives to shine another day
Optimism for a new day despite challenges.
Take advantage of this pain you feel
Suggests finding strength or growth through adversity.
The man is chipping for your own free will
Encouragement to take control of one's destiny.
London's burning i'm believing plagues will leave
Expresses belief in the departure of troubles from London.
London's burning i'm believing plagues will leave
Reiteration of the belief in troubles leaving London.
We've all future plans when all we have is now
Highlighting the importance of living in the present.
So why we steering past times at the wheel
Questioning why people dwell on the past instead of living now.
Like a carousel we go around
Comparing life to a repetitive cycle, like a carousel.
Always moving fear of falling holding on we get so boring
Describing the fear of change and the comfort of routine.
Fear if we let go we might get crazy
Expressing fear of losing control if breaking from routine.
Crazy
Repetition emphasizing a state of chaos or instability.
Don't say you will never chance
Encouragement for openness to change (repeated).
The Sun lives to shine another day
Reiteration of optimism for a new day despite challenges (repeated).
Take advantage of this pain you feel
Suggests finding strength or growth through adversity (repeated).
The man is chipping for your own free will
Encouragement to take control of one's destiny (repeated).
London's burning i'm believing plagues will leave
Reiteration of belief in the departure of troubles from London.
London's burning i'm believing plagues will leave
Reiteration of the belief in troubles leaving London.
