Burn 7
Invictus Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Say what you are in this hell
In the icy world of old desperate souls
The first bullet flew to the wheel of chance
The second one could have been for vengeance
And the last one taken as evidence
Fight, I can't fight again
Here is the pain in my veins
Fight, I can't fight no more
Fight in the light of the fire
In the dead heart of this tortured life
A gun was better than a knife
But what I did
I can't remember
Did I really kill
During December ?
In the cold night...
The next one was no doubt a stray bullet
Flying so fast in the heat of the night
The fifth was the result of a gangland killing
The sixth shouldn't have killed that poor victim
Down, now
I can only move my eyes
Down, now
I feel a burning in my heart
Down, now
I can't manage to think
About, now, the dead man could finally be......
The lyrics of Invictus's song "Burn 7" are quite cryptic and difficult to interpret. It depicts a feeling of being trapped in one's own thoughts, plagued by memories of past deeds that cannot be undone. The first two lines indicate that the singer is haunted by something, but it's not quite clear what it is. The following lines mention an "icy world of old desperate souls," which could be a metaphor for the troubled mind of the singer. The bullets mentioned could represent the singer's regrets and memories, each one having a different meaning and significance.
The chorus suggests that the singer is in pain, unable to fight anymore, and feels as though they are burning up inside. The mention of fighting "in the light of the fire" could mean that the singer is trying to move on from their past and embrace something new, despite the pain it brings. The mention of a gun being better than a knife in "the dead heart of this tortured life" alludes to the singer's past actions of violence. The last few lines of the song suggest that the singer is unable to let go of their past and is consumed by thoughts of the dead man, possibly a victim of their past actions.
