On Fire
Soundtrack Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Unforgiving eyes is a gentle crutch.
Wedded stare.
Undying prayer.
Your innocence is lies.
Trace the departure.
Rip the suture
The lyrics of Soundtrack's song On Fire suggest a sense of introspection and reflection on the part of the singer. The opening lines "Unwinding stairs and transparent hands" may symbolize a feeling of being lost or disconnected from oneself. The mention of "unforgiving eyes" suggests a sense of harsh self-judgment or criticism, which is then described as a "gentle crutch". This contrast between harshness and gentleness is further explored in the following lines, with a "wedded stare" and "undying prayer" painted as potentially misguided or false in the face of "lies" and "failure".
The final line - "Rip the suture" - adds a powerful image of tearing open a wound, perhaps as a way of acknowledging and confronting these perceived flaws or mistakes. Overall, the lyrics of On Fire seem to convey a struggle with one's own identity and the difficulty of reconciling different aspects of oneself.
