Fear Evil Like Fire
Embrace the Shadows: Yves Tumor's Poetic Reflection on Inner Struggles
Lyrics
What do you say to her
Asking what one would say to a female; seeking advice or guidance.
Can you offer she?
Inquiring if something can be offered to the female in question.
Lover or enemy
Pondering whether the relationship is one of love or enmity.
It's so unsettling
Expressing a feeling of discomfort or disturbance.
To hear your name in vain
Reflecting on the unsettling experience of hearing one's name used disrespectfully.
They say it'd grow on me
Commenting on the idea that the unsettling feeling might become familiar over time.
What do you say to her
Repetition of lines 1-6, reinforcing the themes of the previous lines.
Can you offer she?
-Lover or enemy
-It's so unsettling
-To hear your name in vain
-They say it'd grow on me
-The boy you are today
Observing the person's current state and characterizing it as a result of enduring pain.
Ain't from a lack of pain
Asserting that the person became their own enemy, possibly due to the challenges faced.
Became your own enemy
Highlighting the mess or consequences created by the person.
Look at the mess you made
Stating that the situation is a tired or worn-out game.
It's such a tired game
Expressing a sense of fatigue or boredom with the ongoing situation.
"Nothing feels new to me," he said
Quoting someone mentioning that nothing feels new to them.
I'll wait, so we can parlay

We watch the city vibrate

-Can't tell the difference
-Oh yeah, oh yeah
