Desire
Calvi Anna Lyrics

I wanna go to the sun
I want to experience a new world, letting go of my past and old self.

Hold my life like I've never done
Taking a new approach, embracing the unknown and the possibilities it holds.

But it's just the devil in me
Recognising that destructive tendencies exist within oneself, and acknowledging the influence they have.

The devil that's calling as I come undone
Acknowledging that our negative instincts can be more alluring in moments of vulnerability and emotional exhaustion.

The sky is getting dark tonight
Feeling a sense of impending darkness and doom, perhaps reflecting negative emotions.

Darker than the fear that's gonna pull us apart
The looming darkness is a metaphor for a deep-seated fear that threatens to tear them apart.

The beating is the sound of love
Love is represented by the fervour of their hearts beating.

The sound of love is beating like a fevered heart
Love is portrayed as an intense, insistent and overwhelming passion.

And it's the fire, the fire, the fire
The fire is a powerful metaphor for the passionate energy that drives one towards their desires.

It's heavenly, heavenly
The pursuit of one's aspirations is divine and transcendent.

Desire, desire
The driving passion behind her actions.

I wanna lay in the dust
Choosing to embrace vulnerability and humility.

The dust is gonna fall here when I lie
By lying in the dirt, she may face consequences or fallout from her actions.

God knows it's just the devil in me
Acknowledging one's demons and the true motivations behind their desires.

The devil that's taking my hand to the fire
Her desire and ambition is leading her away from safety towards the flame.

I never wanna leave you now
Her fear of being alone surpasses her ambition.

Leave you like the sun is gonna disappear
Leaving her lover would be like losing the light and energy of the sun.

But it's just believing now
Belief in oneself and one's abilities is the key to achieving one's desires.

Believing in my heart is what I've come to fear
Her fear comes in the false belief her heart may betray her, leading to failure or heartbreak.

I've got desire, desire
Reiterating the unquenchable power and pull of her ambition.

And only the lonely
Those who have achieved their desires often find themselves isolated and alone.

Only the lonely fall
The fall from grace that often accompanies the pursuit of one's ambition weighs heavily on the hearts of those left behind.

Oh, and I go to the fire
She willingly and knowingly pursues her desire despite the risks involved, showing a deep and unwavering commitment to her ambition.

But God knows it's the sound of, it's the sound of love
The passion and drive that fuel her actions are born from a place of love, even if it's not always rational or healthy.

It's the beat of my heart that you
Her passion and ambition stems from a deep love that only grows stronger with each beat of her heart.

Finally beating, it's coming, coming, coming for you
Overcoming one's fears and chasing their desires leads to a sense of triumph and accomplishment.

It's just a door to the devil gathered in disguise
Her passion may often be interpreted as selfishness or destructive behaviour.

Taking me by the hand
Her goal and pursuit is leading her astray from what is safe and familiar.

And leading me, leading me off to the fire
Again, the use of fire as a metaphor shows her passion leading her towards destruction.

You don't have to be lost
Advice to others, suggesting that one can still pursue their desires without losing themselves in the process.

(Desire, desire)
The repetition of the word 'desire' emphasizes the power and importance of ambition.
