What the Flames Feel Like
Embracing Redemption: Surviving Flames and Dancing with Demons
Lyrics
Some take to drinkin'
Some individuals resort to drinking as a coping mechanism.
Some take to usin'
Some individuals turn to substance abuse as a way of dealing with problems.
don't't matter what poison they choose
Regardless of the poison chosen, the specific method of coping doesn't matter.
Some hit rock bottom, lose every dollar
Some reach a low point in life, losing all their money.
Some get their hearts broke in two
Others experience the heartbreak of a broken relationship.
It's a long way down
Life can be challenging, and recovery is a difficult journey.
And a hard road back
Overcoming challenges involves a tough and arduous process.
When you've been through hell
After enduring hardships and challenges.
Played with fire
Having flirted with danger or risky behaviors.
Watched the devil dance
Having faced difficult situations symbolized by the devil dancing.
You thank the Lord for each morning
Expressing gratitude for each new day and an opportunity for a fresh start.
For one more second chance
Being thankful for a second chance at life.
You might outrun your demons
It's possible to escape inner struggles temporarily.
You might get on with your life
Rebuilding and moving forward with life is achievable.
But you never forget what the flames feel like
Despite progress, the memories of past struggles remain vivid.
I know temtation is out their waiting
Acknowledging the presence of temptation, waiting to draw the person back into a negative influence.
To lure me back into her arms
Refusing to give in because of the lasting impact of past experiences.
But I won't surender 'cause I remember
Choosing not to surrender to temptation due to the haunting memories of past kisses.
How her kisses branded my heart
Recalling how past experiences have left a lasting mark on the heart.
So I walk away 'cause the fire still burns
Deciding to walk away from potential dangers despite the lingering allure.
When you've been through hell
Reflecting on the challenging times and hardships endured.
Played with fire
Having engaged in risky or destructive behavior.
Watched the devil dance
Observing the negative aspects of life symbolized by the devil's dance.
You thank the Lord for each morning
Expressing gratitude for the opportunity to face a new day.
For one more second chance
Appreciating the chance for a fresh start after past mistakes.
You might outrun your demons
Successfully overcoming personal struggles and challenges.
You might get on with your life
Moving forward and continuing with life after overcoming demons.
But you never forget what the flames feel like
Despite progress, the memories of past struggles remain vivid.
If you follow the straight and narrow
Advising those on a morally upright path to understand the difficulties faced by others.
I know it might be hard to relate
Acknowledging the challenge of empathizing with those who have faced similar struggles.
But if you've been their like I've been their
Emphasizing the cautious approach taken by someone who has experienced hardships.
Your carefull with each step you take
Being careful and mindful in every step due to past experiences.
It's a long way down
Reiterating the difficulty and challenges of the journey.
And a hard road back
Highlighting the arduous path of recovery.
When you've been through hell
Reflecting on the challenging times and hardships endured.
Played with fire
Having engaged in risky or destructive behavior.
Watched the devil dance
Observing the negative aspects of life symbolized by the devil's dance.
You thank the Lord for each morning
Expressing gratitude for the opportunity to face a new day.
For one more second chance
Appreciating the chance for a fresh start after past mistakes.
You might outrun your demons
Successfully overcoming personal struggles and challenges.
You might get on with your life
Moving forward and continuing with life after overcoming demons.
But you never forget what the flames feel like
Despite progress, the memories of past struggles remain vivid.
