Fire

You were just a fire, burning in the rain
Looked at you and I got turned?
Blinded by desire, caught up in the flame
Let you in and I got burned

Such a fool to think you changed
Never shown me love, just another drug
Someone to heal your pain
Such a foolish thing to say
Never want to grow up, you were just a burden
Burning in the rain

I don't wanna go down in your fire, fire
Down in your fire
I don't wanna go down in your fire, fire, fire
Down in your fire, fire

You were just a fire, adequate pain
Took it all to no return
Blinded by desire, caught up in the flame
Let you in and I got burned

Such a fool to think you changed
Never shown me love, just another drug
Someone to heal your pain
Such a foolish thing to say
Never want to grow up, you were just a burden
Burning in the rain

I don't wanna go down in your fire, fire
Down in your fire
I don't wanna go down in your fire, fire, fire
Down in your fire
I don't wanna go down in your fire, fire, fire
Down in your fire




I don't wanna go down in your fire, fire, fire
Fire

Overall Meaning

The song "Fire" by Anna of the North is about the singer's experience with a toxic relationship. The person they were with is compared to a "fire" that burns brightly but ultimately causes destruction and pain. The singer states that they were "blinded by desire" and "caught up in the flame" of the relationship, but ultimately realized that the person they were with was not good for them. The repetition of the word "fire" throughout the song creates a sense of intensity and danger, emphasizing the destructive nature of the relationship.


The lyrics explore the singer's feelings of foolishness for believing that the other person had changed and their recognition that the relationship was not based on love, but rather on the other person's need for someone to heal their pain. The line "never want to grow up, you were just a burden" suggests that the singer sees the other person as immature and incapable of being a true partner in the relationship. By declaring that they do not want to go down in the other person's "fire," the singer is asserting their desire to break free from the toxic relationship and avoid being consumed by its destructive force.


Overall, "Fire" is a powerful and emotional song that captures the pain and complexity of a toxic relationship. Through its use of vivid imagery and repetition, the song conveys the intensity and danger of being caught up in the flames of an all-consuming, destructive love.
