Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I slowly come awake.
I know somethings not right.
I walk slowly to the door,
And feel the heat through the walls;
Smell the burning outside
And all I can see
And all I can think
Is I'm here alone.
Please find me and save me
Even if the world ignites into flames
You'll be right here by my side.
And as it burns away,
You smile at me and say
That, "Not even death could take me away from you."
The fires are growing close,
And all I smell is smoke. Yeah.
Still it's beautiful to me
I hope you get here soon;
I've been waiting here for you.
I believed in you
So hurry please
There's these flames around me.
Find me and save me
Even if the world ignites into flames
You'll be right here by my side.
And as it burns away,
You smile at me and say that,
"Not even death could take me away from you..."
Where are you tonight?
Come find me
Come find me
Cause you're not here by my side.
Even if the world ignites into flames
You'll be right here by my side
Come home to me
Where are you tonight, love?
Where are you tonight, love?
Cause you're not here,
You're not here with me
Please come home
Please come home
Please come home
It's burning outside!
Please come home
Cause you're not here,
You're not here with me
I've been waiting here for you
I hope you get here soon
The flames are right outside my door
