Bonfire Brigade
Bonfire Brigade: Embracing Loss, Finding Light
Lyrics
We carried our crosses
We faced challenges and hardships symbolized as crosses.
A bonfire brigade
A collective group gathering to confront difficulties, like a brigade around a bonfire.
Never counted our losses
We did not assess our failures until the pain they caused began to diminish.
Until pain starts to fade
Recognition of losses becomes apparent only as the pain subsides.
We shed our tears
We expressed sorrow through tears.
We shift our dreams
We adapted our aspirations and goals.
There's an epitaph
Reference to commemorative inscriptions, possibly signifying the significance of every moment.
In every moment we grieve
In each moment of sorrow, there is a remembrance and mourning.
She saved you from the flame
A female figure saved someone from a destructive force or situation.
Built your bones out of stone
The person's resilience and strength were built through difficult experiences, likened to stone.
Shelter from shame
A refuge from disgrace was provided by the female figure.
Shared a rib you called your own
A connection and unity represented by a shared rib.
She broke her back
The female figure endured significant hardships.
Gave her heart
She gave wholeheartedly, emphasizing emotional generosity.
It's in moments like these
In challenging moments, solace is found in the darkness.
We find comfort in the dark
Finding comfort in difficult times is a recurring theme.
We said our goodbyes as the day fades to night
Bidding farewell as daylight transitions to night.
Always wondering why...we're all born blind
Questioning the reason for being born without clear understanding or insight.
It's one more hello...in heaven tonight
Another greeting in heaven tonight, suggesting a continuation of connections beyond life.
It's one more hello in heaven tonight
Reiteration of a welcoming gesture in heaven, emphasizing its significance.
It's one more hello
Continued acknowledgment and greeting in the afterlife.
In heaven tonight
Emphasizing the ongoing connections and hellos in heaven.
