Fire To Fire Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I think I need to slow down
I've been blaming everybody but myself and yet somehow
I feel the weight deep down
Yeah, you know me
Making friends with all my demons, never lonely
Self-destructive and I know it
I think I need a lifeline
I don't know when I became somebody
Somebody I don't recognize
I swear to God I never saw this coming
I never thought I'd leave it all behind
I want it, don't need it
I had to realize
I hate it, I feed it
Believed my own lies
I really think that I could use somebody
Somebody to bring me back to life
Sometimes it comes in waves
And hits me out of nowhere like a hurricane
Feels like I'm going insane
I don't wanna be a problem
But my self-control's a losing game
When the venom's in my veins
Yeah, you know me
Makin friends with all my demons, never lonely
Self-destructive and I know it but it's only
A matter of time before I'm outta my mind
I wish that I could rewind
I don't know when I became somebody
Somebody I don't recognize
I swear to God I never saw this coming
I never thought I'd leave it all behind
I want it, don't need it
I had to realize
I hate it, I feed it
Believed my own lies
I really think that I could use somebody
Somebody to bring me back to life
Yeah, you know me
Makin friends with all my demons, never lonely
Self-destructive and I know it but its only
A matter of time
Before it's flatlined vital signs
Can I be revived?
Can I be revived?
I don't know when I became somebody
Somebody I don't recognize
I swear to God I never saw this coming
I never thought I'd leave it all behind
I want it, don't need it
I had to realize
I hate it, I feed it
Believed my own lies
I really think that I could use somebody
Somebody to bring me back to life
Can I be revived?
Somebody to bring me back to life
The song "Somebody" by Fire To Fire is a heart-wrenching ballad about the struggle with inner demons and the need for someone to pull the singer back up from the bottom of the barrel they have been heading towards for so long. The lyrics speak of the self-destructive behavior that the singer knows they are engaging in, but cannot seem to stop. The weight of their choices is beginning to take its toll and they admit that they need help.
The chorus serves as a plea for someone to pull them out of the darkness and bring them back to life. The repetition of "I want it, don't need it" shows the internal conflict that the singer is experiencing, they know that they should not want the things that are contributing to their self-destructive behavior, but they cannot help it. They have to come to the realization that they hate what they are doing to themselves and that they have believed their own lies for too long.
The song conveys the intense emotions that come with struggling with inner demons, and the longing for someone to help them pull through it. The thought of being "revived" shows that the singer is not yet too far gone, and there is still hope for them to turn their life around, with the help of someone who cares.
Overall, "Somebody" is a powerful song that captures the struggle with mental health and addiction, and the need for someone's support to pull through it.
