House On Fire
Andi Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
No one will care 'cause you're a fucking liar
And, I
Say it one more time
Said I wouldn't drink tonight
Somehow I ended up drunk
What the hell was I thinking?
But now I'm thinking too much
Yeah, I'm wondering what you've been drinking
Started off alright, I didn't miss a sleepless night without you
Don't think about you, anymore
But then I heard that you were talking to my friends
And I got a little mad, so I stormed right out
I let my hair down and set your house on fire
No one will care 'cause you're a fucking liar
And, I
Say it one more time
Get on my hands and knees and slash all four tires
No, you can't run from this
No, you can't hide
And, I
Say it one more time
Said I wouldn't kiss you
'Cause when I think about you I throw up (ew)
What the fuck? (Haha)
I know I shouldn't miss you, that's why I don't
'Cause you can't love, yea, you'll never love, oh
Started off alright I didn't miss a sleepless night without you
I still don't think about you, anymore
But then I heard that you were talking to my friends
And I got a little mad, so I stormed right out that door
I let my hair down and set your house on fire
No one will care 'cause you're a fucking liar
And, I
Say it one more time
Get on my hands and knees and slash all four tires
No, you can't run from this
No, you can't hide
And, I
Say it one more time
I let my hair down and set your house on fire
If I'm a crazy chick, then you're my fucking sire
And, I
Say it one more time
Get on my hands and knees and slash all four of your tires
No, you can't run from this, no you can't hide
And, I
Say it one more time
Oh, woah
Oh, woah, ohh
Oh woah, ohh
Ohh, woah
Set your house on fire
Oh, woah
Oh, woah, ohh
Oh woah, ohh
Ohh, woah
Set your house on fire
The lyrics of Andi's song "House On Fire" depict a tumultuous relationship filled with betrayal, anger, and a desire for revenge. The singer begins by metaphorically setting their partner's house on fire, symbolizing the destruction and chaos that has consumed their relationship. The line "No one will care 'cause you're a fucking liar" suggests that the partner has been deceitful and untrustworthy, leading the singer to feel justified in their actions.
The lyrics also touch upon the internal conflict within the singer, who had intended not to engage in destructive behavior but finds themselves succumbing to their emotions and impulses. The mention of drinking and thinking too much reflects the self-destructive tendencies and inner turmoil the singer is experiencing. Despite trying to move on and not think about their partner, hearing about them talking to friends triggers a strong emotional reaction, causing them to act out in anger.
The chorus repeats the imagery of setting the house on fire and slashing tires, emphasizing the intense desire for vengeance and justice. The singer's actions are fueled by a sense of betrayal and hurt, and they are determined to make their partner face the consequences of their actions. The repetition of the phrase "Say it one more time" adds a defiant tone, asserting the singer's resolve to speak their truth and seek retribution.
The culmination of the song highlights the singer's acknowledgment of the toxic nature of the relationship and their realization that they need to break free from it. The repeated refrain of setting the house on fire and slashing tires serves as a cathartic release of pent-up emotions and a declaration of empowerment. Ultimately, "House On Fire" captures the raw emotions of heartbreak, anger, and reclaiming one's power in the face of betrayal and deceit.

I promised myself not to drink, but I did

I found myself in a state of intoxication
What the hell was I thinking?
I question my judgment and decision-making
Started off alright, I didn't miss a sleepless night without you
In the beginning, I coped well without you haunting my thoughts
Don't think about you, anymore
I have moved on from reminiscing about you
But then I heard that you were talking to my friends
Learning that you are still involved in my social circle angered me
And I got a little mad, so I stormed right out
My anger led me to leave abruptly
Set your house on fire
Symbolically causing destruction and chaos in your life
If I'm a crazy chick, then you're my fucking sire
If I am seen as irrational, you are the root cause of that behavior
Said I wouldn't kiss you
I promised myself to stay away from you physically
'Cause when I think about you I throw up (ew)
Thoughts of you disgust me
I know I shouldn't miss you, that's why I don't
I acknowledge that longing for you is futile, so I suppress it
'Cause you can't love, yea, you'll never love
You are incapable of genuine love
Oh, woah
