Fire
Embracing the Last Burst of Fire: Velvet Sway's Poetic Journey
Lyrics
Had to write this down
Expressing the need to write down thoughts or emotions.
To get it out of my head
Desiring to remove something from the mind by putting it into writing.
By all means a shot in the dark
Referring to a risky or uncertain action taken without certainty of success.
I know you think enough was said
Acknowledging that the other person believes enough has been communicated.
We're lighting escape fires
Creating metaphorical fires to escape from reality.
Casting shadows on the wall
Projecting images or illusions that don't have a solid foundation.
Shot in the dark
Repeating the idea of a risky or uncertain action.
Please, calm down
Requesting emotional calmness.
Let's sit down by this last burst of fire
Proposing to reflect on a relationship during its final moments.
When did 'meant to be' become equal to some algorithmic probability
Questioning the transformation of destiny into a statistical outcome.
When did you and me become loose opposites instead of perfect harmony
Reflecting on the shift from perfect compatibility to discord.
Floating through air
Recalling the initial meeting as a light and carefree experience.
The first time we met
Nostalgically remembering the first encounter.
All good feelings we had, it's not the same
Noting that positive emotions have changed.
All our friends say we're perfect
Acknowledging external perceptions of an ideal relationship.
But I don't think it's worth it, not anymore
Expressing doubt about the relationship's worth.
Might not be rocket science
Downplaying the complexity of the situation.
Another trip around the sun with you
Metaphorically referring to the passage of time in the relationship.
Should promise to move on soon
Suggesting a need to move forward and let go.
If you quit asking for the moon
Asking the other person to set realistic expectations.
Stop adding fuel to the fire
Advising against worsening the situation.
When did 'meant to be' become equal to some algorithmic probability
Reiterating the questioning of destiny being reduced to probability.
When did you and me become loose opposites instead of perfect harmony
Revisiting the contrast between unity and disharmony.
When did 'meant to be' become equal to some algorithmic probability
Repeating the inquiry about destiny and probability.
When did you and me become loose opposites, loose opposites
Re-emphasizing the shift from perfect compatibility to discord.
What comes after 'happily ever after'
Contemplating what follows the conventional 'happily ever after.'
It better be our last burst of fire
Expressing the hope that the current situation is the last intense moment.
When did 'meant to be' become equal to some algorithmic probability
Reiterating the questioning of destiny being reduced to probability.
When did you and me become loose opposites instead of perfect harmony
Revisiting the contrast between unity and disharmony.
When did 'we'll just see where this goes' turn into obligatory ticking off boxes
Reflecting on the transformation of uncertainty into obligatory routines.
No way back so let's move on
Asserting that there's no turning back, encouraging moving forward.
It might be our very last one
Suggesting that the current moment might be the final one.
Our last burst of fire
Referring to the imminent conclusion of intense emotions.
Last burst
Repeating the notion of the final intense moment.
Last burst
-Last burst of fire
Reiterating the expectation of the last intense moment in the relationship.
