Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Pyro-pyromania, mah-mah, mah-mania
Pyro-pyromania, mah-mah, mah-mania (oh)

Call me obsessed
Call me insane
Something is creeping through my veins
My eyes cannot see
What's underneath
I can't stop and you can't stop me

I'm gonna get the fire started (started)
Impossible for you to breathe (breathe)
The temperature's risin' up
Up
So hot
'Cause I'm burnin' up

Pyromania
Pyromania-ow
Pyromania
Ah-ah, ah, ow
Pyromania
Pyromania-ow
Ow, owww (Heat it, heat it up, yeah)

Ow, owww (Heat it, heat it up, yeah)
Pyro-pyromania, mah-mah, mah-mania
Pyro-pyromania, mah-mah, mah-mania (oh)

I must confess
A thousand degrees
Bring out the beast inside of me
Don't be afraid
Go into the place
It's gonna melt your fears away

I'm gonna get the fire started (started)
Impossible for you to breathe (breathe)
The temperature's risin' up
Up
So hot
And I'm burnin' up

Soon as the fire is runnin' wild

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Cascada's "Pyromania" convey an insatiable desire to indulge in pyromania, an obsession with fire. The song starts with sexualized and addictive imagery, with the singer being called "obsessed" and "insane". The subject sings about a force that is "creeping through my veins", suggesting that the desire for pyromania is innate in her. She acknowledges that she cannot help but indulge in this obsession, with a line "I can't stop and you can't stop me." The chorus of the song repeats "Pyromania, Pyromania-ow," which likens the obsession with fire to a type of mania, emphasizing how consuming the desire truly is.


The second verse further emphasizes the heat and desire that the subject feels, with lines such as "A thousand degrees, bring out the beast inside of me" and "it's gonna melt your fears away". The passion is also clear in the bridge where the singer declares, "I don't want to apologize, it's getting hot, hot, and I'm burning uuup." The song is meant to be an ode to the thrill of pyromania, embracing the heat, the danger, and the fascination with the flames themselves.
