World On Fire
Stefanie Heinzmann Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Turned into a hell of a man
And you know you're driving me crazy
In the ways that only you can
And the fortune teller hit on something
But don't you think I already knew
Yeah you're total devastation
And for your information
I just want to take you higher
I don't care what you done
If it's right or it's wrong
'Cause tonight you set my world on fire
Catch me 'cause I'm starting to fall now
Inch away from hittin' the ground
Wind me up 'cause you never call me
'Specially when I hear you're in town
But the spark for you still burns so bright
Babe you've gotta hold on me
No matter who you are
No matter what you do
You gotta reach out and make a connection
No matter where you go
No matter where you been
You're gonna need some lovin'
Stefanie Heinzmann's song "World on Fire" tells a story about a man who is both destructive and captivating to the singer. She describes him as a beautiful baby who turned into a hell of a man, someone who drives her crazy in all the ways only he can. He is total devastation, setting the world on fire. Despite knowing that he may not be the best person, she doesn't care because he has a hold on her. She's falling for him and wants to take him higher, even if she knows it may not be the smartest choice.
The fortune teller in the lyrics hits on something but the singer already knew it, indicating that the man's behavior is evident to others as well. She feels like she's inching away from hitting the ground, but the spark for him still burns. He never calls her, especially when he's in town, yet she finds herself captivated by him. The song delivers a message about the power of attraction, how it can make us overlook flaws and rationalize otherwise obvious problems.
Overall, "World On Fire" by Stefanie Heinzmann is a cautionary tale about the dangers of falling for someone who could potentially destroy us. Although the singer is aware of the man's shortcomings, she is still unable to resist the attraction he has over her. The lyrics provide a glimpse into the psyche of someone who is caught in the thralls of attraction to someone who is ultimately not good for them.
