House On Fire
Ryan Cabrera Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
They could talk about us like we're the ones
We can be untouchable while we're young
And (We can) laugh about it when we're dead and done
You and me it's automatic
You and me
Could say we had it all
Hotter than a house on fire
C'mon lemme see your fighter
Heaven help me light the flame
We can burn (burn burn)
Faster than the world can turn
Until we fade away
They can try to take us we won't go
We could be the kings and queens of hope
When everything is bought and sold
In the end, we're the only thing that's gold
You and me
We're not so tragic
You and me
Could say we had it all
Just to say we had it all
We can burn
Hotter than a house on fire
C'mon lemme see your fighter
Heaven help me light the flame
We can burn (burn burn)
Faster than the world can turn
Until we fade away
Ryan Cabrera's song, House On Fire is about living life to the fullest, taking risks, and making the most of the time we have. The opening lines suggest that the singer wants to be remembered forever as larger-than-life characters, and the following lines suggest that they will not allow anything or anyone to come in between them. The chorus refers to burning hotter than a house on fire, which could be interpreted as passion, intensity, or being unstoppable. The singer wants to live their life with gusto and not allow things to take them down.
Throughout the song, the singer speaks about the relationship with their partner, who they describe as "automatic". This could mean that the two of them have a strong connection that doesn't require any work or maintenance. The lyrics also suggest that they have had fun and exciting times together, and no matter what happens, they can be content knowing that they made the most of their time together.
The last section of the song speaks about how others may try to take things from them, but in the end, they will still have each other, and that is the most important thing of all. They are the ones who are "gold", and their relationship is what matters.
