A Flame Out in the Wind
Kaiyko Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I get lost when I get scared
Freaking out about the endless possibilities
Find myself crying in my backyard
Hoping to myself that the
Neighbors can't hear me
But I love how simple and sweet
You always make things out to be
Deep inside, I wish I was like you
But everything about you always
Cuts through me
Like a knife right through my chest
Cutting deeper than the rest
Wish you could stay here forever
But I see what's coming next

We're like a flame out in the wind
Wish I could keep us from harm
But I think love never wins
Our fate pulls everything apart

Blood red, got my eyes red from the crying
I'm fine, here we go again man I'm lying
Look me in my eyes and tell
Me that I'll be okay
Demons always haunting me
I think they here to stay
Don't lie when you tell me that you care
I've been falling I even shaved my hair
I been finding out who loves me
But I can't trust you

We're like a flame out in the wind
Wish I could keep us from harm
But I feel love never wins
Our fate pulls everything apart

Nothing ever lasts
I've been stuck inside my past
I'm faking all my smiles
And my heart is made of glass it's shattered
But I don't think it really matters
I'd rather be alone than
Feel the pain when I look at her
Losing myself from this world, I
Don't really know what to do, why
Does everything come to an end?
Cuz' I can't make amends anymore
But you know I'll still be here
Confused with you

I get lost when i get scared
Freaking out about the endless possibilities
Find myself crying in my backyard
Hoping to myself that
The neighbors can't hear me
But I love how simple and sweet
You always make things out to be
Deep inside I wish I was like you
But everything about you always
Cuts through me
Like a knife right through my chest
Cutting deeper than the rest




Wish you could stay forever
But I see what's coming next

Desiring your continuous presence indefinitely

However, I am aware of the impending events or circumstances

Blood red, got my eyes red from the crying
My eyes are bloodshot and reddened due to extensive weeping


I'm fine, here we go again man I'm lying

Directly gaze into my eyes and assure me that I will be fine


Demons always haunting me, I think they here to stay

I've been discovering people who genuinely care for me, but I struggle to place my trust in you


Nothing ever lasts
No entity or situation endures eternally


I've been stuck inside my past
I have remained trapped within my previous experiences or memories


I'm faking all my smiles
I am pretending to be happy through all my smiles


And my heart is made of glass, it's shattered
My heart is fragile like glass, and it has broken into numerous pieces


But I don't think it really matters
However, I believe it is insignificant or inconsequential


I'd rather be alone than feel the pain when I look at her
Instead of experiencing heartache when I see her, I prefer solitude


Losing myself from this world, I
Becoming detached or disconnected from reality, I


Don't really know what to do, why
Lack comprehension of the appropriate actions or reasons


Does everything come to an end?
Is it inevitable for all things to conclude?


Cuz' I can't make amends anymore
Because I am no longer capable of repairing or reconciling


But you know I'll still be here confused with you
Yet, despite the confusion, you know that I'll still be by your side
