Burnt
Embracing the Flames: A Poetic Journey of Desire and Resilience
Lyrics
Standing on a ledge
Expressing a precarious position, possibly a metaphorical edge in life.
I feel you looking up to see
Awareness of someone observing from below.
Closer to the edge
Approaching a risky situation, moving closer to a metaphorical edge.
I know how this works out for me
Acknowledging the predictable outcome of the situation.
Holding til the end
Commitment to endure until the conclusion.
The pulse is beating rapidly
Intensification of emotions, heart beating rapidly.
Wanting to pretend
Desire to pretend that the outcome could be different.
That things could turn out differently
Acknowledging the unlikely possibility of a different outcome.
I want to be so close
Desire for proximity to danger or excitement.
To the fire and not get hurt
Expressing a desire to be close to risk without consequences.
I want to feel the heat
Desiring the experience of passion without negative repercussions.
Of your flame but not get burnt
Expressing a wish to feel the intensity without getting harmed.
I want to be so close
Repetition of the desire for closeness without harm, emphasizing the theme.
To the fire and not get hurt
-I want to feel the heat
-Of your flame but not get burnt
-Come find me on my own
Invitation for someone to find the speaker when alone.
If what you seek is company
If seeking company, but with a caution about the transience of connection.
Sparks fly on their own
Noting that sparks (connections) have a fleeting nature.
Like yours to hold but no to keep
Acknowledging a desire for connection without commitment.
You want to take it there
Expressing a willingness to escalate a situation.
The heat is picking up tonight
Indicating a rise in intensity or passion.
Embers in the air
Warning of potential danger or consequences.
Run before they take alight
Advising to act before a situation becomes uncontrollable.
I want to be so close
Reiteration of the desire for closeness without harm, reinforcing the theme.
To the fire and not get hurt
-I want to feel the heat
-Of your flame but not get burnt
-I want to be so close
-To the fire and not get hurt
-I want to feel the heat
-Of your flame but not get burnt
-I wanna feel the fire's burn
Introducing a change in tone, acknowledging the inevitability of pain or consequences.
I wanna feel the fire's burn
-Reaching out, the fiery hands of pain
-Creeping closer, I feel the kiss of pain
-Reaching for me, the fiery hands of pain
-Creeping closer, I feel the kiss of flame
-I want to be so close
Re-emphasizing the initial desire for closeness without harm, amidst the acknowledgment of consequences.
To the fire and not get hurt
-I want to feel the heat
-Of your flame but not get burnt
-I want to be so close
-To the fire and not get hurt
-I want to feel the heat
-Of your flame but not get burnt
-I wanna feel the fire's burn
Repetition and intensification of the acknowledgment of the desire for the experience despite the inevitable consequences.
I wanna feel the fire's burn
-I wanna feel the fire's burn
-I wanna feel the fire's burn
-Yeah they're burning
-I wanna feel the fire's burn
-I wanna feel the fire's burn
-I wanna feel the fire's burn
-I wanna feel the fire's burn
-Yeah!
A triumphant or defiant declaration amidst the acknowledgment of consequences.
