We Are the Flames
Embracing the Inferno: Skunk Anansie's Powerful Anthem Unveiled
Lyrics
I get no rush without a view
I don't experience excitement without a perspective
Watching all the puppeteers
Observing those who manipulate events
Parade in evil news
A display of malicious information in a parade
Then they say we are alright
Despite challenges, they claim everything is fine
Then they say we are alright
Reiteration of the assertion that everything is fine
I get no crush without a pune
No infatuation without a deceptive strategy
Mentally I'm sanctified
Mentally, I am justified and purified
By kamikaze fools
Sanctified by reckless and daring individuals
Yeah they say we are alright
Despite adversity, they affirm everything is fine
Let me say we are alright
Affirming once again that everything is fine
We are the flames
Identification as powerful and intense forces
You were the fire
Addressing someone who ignited passion
We are the price you pay
Being the consequence one faces for pursuing desires
For feeling your desires
The toll paid for pursuing personal passions
We get no justice for our views
No fairness received for expressing opinions
Sentiments per else
Feelings expressed to others
But really nothing ever moves
Despite expression, there is no significant change
And they say we are alright
Despite challenges, they assert everything is fine
Then they say we are all
Repeating the assertion that everything is fine
We are the flames
Reiteration of being powerful and intense forces
You were the fire
Reference to someone who sparked intense emotions
We are the price you pay
The cost one bears for pursuing their desires
For feeling your desires
The consequence of following one's passions
We are the flames
Repetition of identification as powerful forces
You were the fire
Reiteration of addressing someone who ignited passion
See, I'm your pretty face
Highlighting a connection with an attractive face
Brings death to this dogfight
Suggesting that attractiveness leads to conflict or struggle
I get lost inside my mind
Experiencing confusion and disorientation within thoughts
I get left behind
Feeling abandoned or left behind
Behind, behind
Repetition emphasizing being left behind mentally
I get left behind you
Expressing being left behind emotionally
We are the flames
Reiteration of identification as powerful and intense forces
You were the fire
Reiteration of addressing someone who ignited passion
We are the price you pay
Reiteration of the consequence for pursuing desires
For feeling your desires
Reiteration of the toll paid for following passions
We are the flames
Reiteration of being powerful and intense forces
You are the fire
Reiteration of reference to someone who sparked intense emotions
See, I'm your pretty face
Reiterating the connection with an attractive face
Brings death to this dogfight
Repeating the idea that attractiveness leads to conflict
We are the flames
Reiteration of identification as powerful forces
