Firewood
Reclaiming Sacred Flames: Empowering Anthem by Synne Sanden
Lyrics
I´m taking back my body
I reclaim control over my body
I´m taking it back for good
This is a permanent decision to take back ownership
won´t let anybody own it
I won't allow anyone to possess or control it
or use it as firewood
I won't let my body be exploited or treated as expendable
firewood
Emphasis on the metaphorical significance of "firewood"
I´m taking back my body
Reiteration of reclaiming control over the body
I´m taking it back for good
Confirming the decisiveness of taking back ownership permanently
won´t let anybody own it
Emphasizing the refusal to be owned or controlled by others
or use it as firewood
Repeating the rejection of allowing the body to be used as an object
Bodies have a sacred fire
The body is described as having a sacred essence or vitality
So never rob or squeeze a flame
A warning not to steal or diminish this sacred essence
the ones who make others hollow
Those who make others empty or devoid of life are to blame
are the only ones that´s right to blame
Attributing blame to those who strip others of their vitality
right to blame
Reiteration of the responsibility of those who deplete others
taking it back
Reemphasizing the act of reclaiming ownership
Bodies have a sacred fire
Reiteration of the sacred nature of the body's essence
So never rob or squeeze a flame
Repeating the caution against stealing or diminishing the sacred essence
the ones who make others hollow
Highlighting the responsibility of those who make others lifeless
are the only ones that´s right to blame
Reiterating that those who deplete others are the ones to blame
