Feed the Fire
Combichrist Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

what if I was someone else
what if word was ment to be said but unspoken
and I would know what lays ahead

I had everything and nothing will remain
I torn apart rest of the word
and walked into the brawl of silence
and no god can heal our wounds

and this thoughts sense away
the dawn of a broken day
carries me away
what if I feed the fire

lined by your touch I fell behind
when a fist full of burns will .. in fire
in time we'll learn how to destroy your reflection
thought but truly my shadow was alone

I take my mask and place it in the dust
the sun burns through my shelter.
My flesh peels off.
there is nothing I can do
But embrace the pain as something new.

and this thoughts sense away
the dawn of a broken day
carries me away
what if I feed the fire

what if I'm not who I think I am
what if I am something else
what if I can prove to you




that I always been somewhere else

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Combichrist’s “Feed the Fire” explore the concept of transformation and rebirth. The first stanza delves into the idea of what could have been and what one’s identity truly is. The persona in the song questions their own existence and wonders what it would be like to be someone else. They also contemplate the significance of unspoken words and how they shape the future.


The chorus, “what if I feed the fire,” can be interpreted as both a rhetorical question and a statement of intent. The persona ponders the consequences of feeding their inner flame and unleashing their full potential. They also acknowledge the pain and suffering that comes with the transformation process.


The second stanza is about shedding old skin and embracing something new. The persona lets go of their mask and shelter, and surrenders to the burning sensation of their own rebirth. They realize that in order to move forward, they must first destroy their own reflection and the parts of their old self that no longer serve them.


Overall, “Feed the Fire” is an introspective reflection on the idea of transformation and the emotional pain that comes with it.

I remove my facade and leave it behind


the sun burns through my shelter.
The sun's rays pierce through my protective cover.


My flesh peels off.
My skin is stripped away.


there is nothing I can do
I am powerless


But embrace the pain as something new.
But accept the agony as a new experience.


what if I'm not who I think I am
What if I'm not the person I believe myself to be?


what if I am something else
What if my true identity is different from who I am now?


what if I can prove to you
What if I can demonstrate to you


that I always been somewhere else
That I have always been somewhere other than here

FEED THE FIRE ( Lyrics ) :

What if I was never broken,
what if I was someone else,
what if word was meant to be said but unspoken,
and I would know what lays ahead.

I had everything and nothing will remain,
or torn apart by a single word,
a walk through the blood of silence,
and no god can heal the wounds.

IT DISSOLVES,
IT SAILS AWAY, THE DAWN OF A BROKEN DAY,
IT CARRIES ME AWAY,
WHAT IF I, FEED THE FIRE.

Lined up by your touch I fell behind,
with a fist full of bones we're bathing in fire,
In time they'll learn how to destroy your reflection,
bound by truth my shadow is alone.

I take my mask and place it in the dust,
the sun burns through my shelter,
my flesh peels off there is nothing I can do,
but embrace the pain as something new.

IT DISSOLVES,
IT SAILS AWAY, THE DAWN OF A BROKEN DAY,
IT CARRIES ME AWAY,
WHAT IF I, FEED THE FIRE.

What if I am not who I think I am,
what if I am something else,
What if I can prove to you,
that I always been somewhere else.

IT DISSOLVES,
IT SAILS AWAY, THE DAWN OF A BROKEN DAY,
IT CARRIES ME AWAY,
WHAT IF I, FEED THE FIRE.

If you listen to the lyrics, it really fits the theme of Vergil becoming Hollow Vergil!
