Lyrics
Out on the back porch
Being outdoors on the back porch
You say tonight we bring our pocket
Expressing a desire to carry pocket knives tonight
Our pocket knives
Referring to the pocket knives as "our pocket knives"
You want to fight me
Someone expressing a willingness to engage in a physical confrontation
You want to fight
Reiteration of the desire for a physical altercation
Forgotten sense of me
Feeling of being forgotten or overlooked
Saya saya
Repetition of the word "saya" possibly for emphasis or emotional expression
And in the backyard
Continuation of the narrative in the backyard
Into the night
Embarking on a journey into the night
We walk through fire
Metaphorical passage through challenges or difficulties represented by "fire"
By candlelight
Symbolic use of candlelight to illuminate the path
They want to fight me
Others expressing a desire to engage in conflict
They want to fight
Reiteration of the desire for confrontation
Forgotten sense of me
Reiteration of feeling forgotten or overlooked
Saya saya
Repetition of the word "saya" for emotional expression
And through the fire
Continuation of the metaphorical journey through challenges
We see the light
Discovery of a revealing truth or insight
That no one's hiding
Nobody is hiding the truth
To save our lives
The truth is crucial for saving lives
You want to love me
Expressing a desire for love
You've got to try
An urging to make an effort to love
Forgotten sense of me
Reiteration of feeling forgotten or overlooked
Saya saya
Repetition of the word "saya" for emotional expression
Say you're me now
Request to affirm one's identity
Set your arms down
Final directive to disarm or stop being confrontational
