Lyrics
Got your call
Responding to a call from someone
Now I'm here at your door
Physically present at the person's door
False alarm
Initial panic or concern turns out to be unnecessary
'Cause you're not here anymore
The person isn't present anymore
I had it all in my head what I'd say to you
Had rehearsed thoughts or words for this encounter
But you set me up again like you always do
Feeling manipulated or deceived by the person
The more you treat me cruel, oh it just adds fuel to the fire (fuel to the fire)
Being treated harshly by the person intensifies emotions
Tease me like you do, but it just fuels my desire (fules my desire)
The teasing behavior stokes one's longing
You say you don't want me, I think you're a liar
Expressing disbelief at the person's denial of interest
Love or lust, it just adds fuel to the fire (fuel to the fire)
Love or desire only intensifies the emotional turmoil
Fuel to the fire (fuel to the fire)
Reiteration of emotions being intensified
Sexy pics
Receiving suggestive images via phone
You sent to me on my phone
Physical presence but unable to be alone with the person
Now I'm here
Beginning to comprehend the other person's intentions
And I can't get you alone
They enjoy having control or power in the situation
I think I'm just beginning to understand
-
That you just like having the upper hand
Understanding the other's need for dominance
The more you treat me cruel, oh it just adds fuel to the fire (fuel to the fire)
Repeated cycle of mistreatment amplifies emotions
Tease me like you do, but it just fuels my desire (fules my desire)
Teasing behavior intensifies one's longing
You say you don't want me, I think you're a liar
Disbelief in the person's claimed disinterest
Love or lust, it just adds fuel to the fire (fuel to the fire)
Love or desire further fuels emotional turmoil
Fuel to the fire (fuel to the fire)
Reiterating emotional intensification
I make you think you're the only one
Creating the illusion of exclusivity
But if we're not having fun
Relationship lacking enjoyment might end
Then we're done
Questioning who gains from the situation
And who won?
-
The more you treat me cruel, oh it just adds fuel to the fire (fuel to the fire)
Mistreatment increases emotional intensity
Tease me like you do, but it just fuels my desire (fules my desire)
Teasing behavior intensifies longing
You say you don't want me, I think you're a liar
Doubtful of the person's disavowal of interest
Love or lust, it just adds fuel to the fire (fuel to the fire)
Love or desire adds to emotional turmoil
Fuel to the fire (fuel to the fire)
Reiterating emotional intensification
F-F-F-Fire (fuel to the fire)
Emphasizing the fire metaphor
Fule to the fire
Reiteration of adding fuel to the fire
Fire!
Intensification or culmination of emotions
