Burn Everything
Embrace Liberation: Burn Memories, Ignite Freedom
Lyrics
I thought I was good enough
I believed I met the standard
Good but just not good enough
Acknowledging my goodness but realizing it falls short
Burn everything that reminds you of me
Suggesting the removal of all reminders of our connection
It's the quickest way to end your misery
Advocating this as the quickest solution to your suffering
It's the best way to forget about me
Positing that burning everything helps in forgetting
It's the fastest way that you'll become free
Emphasizing it as the fastest way to achieve freedom
Burn everything
Reiterating the directive to burn all remnants of the relationship
Burn everything
-Burn everything
-Burn everything in this bitter, empty place
Extending the burning metaphor to the desolate surroundings
It's the best way to warm up your cold bed
Highlighting that burning everything warms a cold bed emotionally
A year from now, you won't remember my face
Suggesting that after a year, memories of the person will fade
Just a ghost, you already consider dead
Portraying the person as a ghost, already considered dead to you
I thought I was good enough
Repetition of feeling insufficient despite perceived goodness
Good but just not good enough
Acknowledging goodness but admitting it falls short again
Burn everything, the pictures and the songs
Expanding the burning directive to include tangible and intangible reminders
I didn't write them for the person you've become
Expressing disappointment that creations were not for the person you've become
All I wanted was to be next to you all day long
Revealing the desire to spend time together all day
Divided up the king and queen's home
Referencing the separation of a royal couple's home
Burn everything
Reiteration of the burning directive as a conclusive act
Burn everything
-Burn everything
