Into The Fire
ɯÀ­¿ËÀÍ¿ËÀ¼ Sarah Mclachlan Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Mother teach me to walk again
Milk and honey so intoxicating

[Chorus]
And into the fire
I'm reunited
Into the fire
I am the spark
Into the night
I yearn for comfort

Open the doors that lead on into Eden
Don't you disguise
I'll follow the signs marked back to the beginning
No more compromise

[Chorus]

Free the water that carries me to the sea
You I see as my security

Into the fire
I'm reunited
Into the fire
Oh, I am the spark
Into the night
I yearn for comfort

I will stare into the sun until its light doesn't blind me
I will walk unto the fire until its heat doesn't burn me
And I will feed the fire

[Chorus]

Into the fire
Into the fire
Into the fire
I'm reunited
Into the fire
Oh, I am the spark
Into the night
I yearn for comfort
Into the fire
Into the fire
Into the fire
I'm reunited
Into the fire
I am the spark




Into the night
I yearn for comfort

Overall Meaning

The song "Into The Fire" by Sarah McLachlan is a powerful and emotive piece that explores themes of rebirth, transformation, and self-discovery. The opening lines of the song, "Mother teach me to walk again, milk, and honey so intoxicating," suggest a desire to return to a state of innocence and purity. There is a sense of reverence and awe towards the maternal figure in the singer's life, perhaps symbolizing a connection to nature and the divine feminine.


The chorus of the song, "Into the fire, I'm reunited. Into the fire, I am the spark. Into the night, I yearn for comfort," portrays the singer's journey into the unknown and the challenges they face along the way. The "fire" represents both the literal and metaphorical challenges of life, and the singer's willingness to confront them head-on. Through this process, the singer discovers their inner strength and resilience and learns to embrace uncertainty.


The final lines of the song, "I will stare into the sun until its light doesn't blind me. I will walk unto the fire until its heat doesn't burn me. And I will feed the fire," capture the essence of the song's message. It's about pushing through the pain and discomfort of growth and transformation and coming out stronger on the other side.

@@jennargy6667 Easy way to stay sane, in a world where insanity runs ramped. BIBLE STUDY.
2 Timothy 2:15
Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth.

Souls, come to CHRIST and:
be healed,
be guided,
be saved,
be protected.
return HOME.

Come on, come on
Put your hands into the fire
Explain, explain
As I turn, I meet the power
This time, this time
Turning white and senses dying
Pull up, pull up
From one extreme to another
From the summer to the spring
From the mountain to the air
From samaritan to sin
And it's waiting on the air
Come on, come on
Put your hands into the fire
Explain, explain
As I turn, I meet the power
This time, this time
Turning white and senses dying
Pull up, pull up
From one extreme to another
From the summer to the spring
From the mountain to the air
From samaritan to sin
And it's waiting on the air
Now I'm low, I'm looking out, I'm looking in
Way down, the lights are dimmer
Now I'm low, I'm looking out, I'm looking in
Way down, the lights are dimmer
Come on, come on
Put your hands into the fire
Come on, come on
