What Counts
Embrace the Flame: Them Lights' 'What Counts' Reveals Life's Crucible
Lyrics
When you realise it's all or nothing
Realization that the situation demands full commitment.
Until you take that step and make it count
Emphasizing the importance of taking decisive action.
When you realise the weight of your inaction
Awareness of the consequences of not taking action.
It's like a tidal wave and it's coming down
Symbolizing the overwhelming impact of inaction.
Please please please
Plea to let go of the negative emotions or circumstances.
Let it go away
-Away

-Please please please
-Let it go away

-When you see what you've created, and you deserve it
Recognition of the results of one's actions, even if negative.
And you're running out of places you can hide
Feeling cornered and having limited options.
It'll take you out of control
Describing a situation spiraling out of control, akin to being on fire.
It'll break you and won't let go
-It's like you're on fire
-It's like you're on fire
-Please please please
Repeated plea to let go of the negative emotions or circumstances.
Let it go away
-Away

-Please please please
-Let it go away

-Take me, hate me, free me, drown me, please me, hurt me, tease me but softly
Expressing a willingness to endure various experiences, but with a plea for gentleness.
Release me, numb me, hold me, break me, love me, burn me but softly
-I'm lonely
Acknowledging loneliness, possibly as a consequence of actions or decisions.
Please please please
Continued plea to release and let go of the negative elements.
Let it go away
-Away

-Please please please
-Let it go away

-I'm lonely
Reiteration of loneliness and a plea for control.
Control me
