This song means to me personally the struggle of finding oneself, including trying to become peaceful and content because that is the common idea of happiness and then realizing it is your nature to want struggle, excitement, passion and it doesn't make you broken. So when you "take back what is yours" you feel this relief and this surge of energy
Just lost one of my best friends that I grew up with since we were 8 years old to addiction. I am absolutely devastated but this song is beyond accurate to how she lived her life. I have never in all my life met anyone with the nerve/guts/free-spirit will/balls like Linzee Rose Cushing. RIP 🌌🙏❤️
Just saw these guys live- ALL of their songs were PERFECT too! They rocked'em harder than ever somehow screaming and then singing perfectly! They are BETTER live then on the album! I loved that they played on a military base and made a small speech about not being a mindless clone and then sang shoot it out w/ the lyrics that say "not gonna fight your war!" Lmao! Loved it!! ^_^
I literally hate my life so much, but this song makes me feel a little more okay with the fact that I hate my life. Not okay with my life, but okay with not being okay.
A warrior is not simply a fighter, an athlete or even a soldier but rather some one born for the fire and not society, one who’s home is in the the flames of chaos
I hope you guys are doing better these days. I don't know what you are going through but maybe professional help is the answer, or talking to a trusted friend about what you are going through. Remember that people care about you, even if it may not feel like it times. I wish you the best.
This song represents the split of one self. That stubborn ability to say your ok but you know your not. You're in a place you got yourself but your out of place there. The sorrow in his voice makes me feel like there's a want to be reassured or confronted. Just cuz your fine in the fire dosnt mean that's where you wanna stay.
Ever hear a song that is just so perfect, that it makes you cry? Well, that's this song for me. The instrumental, vocals, lyrics, and relatability are just done so well!
Jesus fucking Christ... I have never seen so many depressed souls all in one place. You gotta live life for what it is. Stop thinking about the past because you have your whole future ahead of you. Dont let ex bf's and gf's drag you down. Dont give up. There are many people to meet and many places to go.
you act like you have all the answers man. for some people its not as easy as it sounds. take Charlie sheen as an example, he now has aids due to his past. the future is always dictated by our past. be more open minded man. so people have a hard time dealing with life, you obviously have your shit together but I doubt its always been that way. we are told as a society that we should reach out for help when we need it. most of these comments are exactly that. instead of being an ass, try asking if you could make the world a better place by lending a hand.
I was in prison when this song came out it hit me pretty hard because my family wanted me home but i was in the best place i could be at the time now im married and love my life so much more im not saying prison did that for me but if i had not traveled down that road i would not be were i am today i dont regret my past i embrace that motherfucker and know im molded from that fire to be who i am dont live in the past but always remember you made it through it
These guys are so much better live than they are recorded what makes it even better is for me they started out local and still come back here a lot they came back with Breaking Benjamin last month and I was amazed
I love this song so much, and I could listen to it for the rest of my life, but the acoustic version! I have a great affinity for acoustic music, and I just think the acoustic guitar is perfect for this song. If you've never heard it, I recommend it forever.
My mom showed me this song and described it as "their special song" i may not have know them much bc they weren't in my life much, but this'll always be a special song to both of us
I dont ususally care much for the lyrical meaning of these types of songs. But I think this song has a decent message. Live a little, get uncomfortable, push yourself.
That has nothing to do with the meaning. The song is about someone who's going through depression and is "in the fire" and is "feeding on the friction". And he doesn't let anyone try to help. He begins do have "isolation, hesitation, separation" issues but he still refuses help.
the song is actually about an ambitious person. possibly with sociopathic tendencies who is pushing himself into situations that would make other sheep.....oh, I mean people, uncomfortable. they are telling him there is something wrong with him because he does not feel fear, the fire the same way they do. And his response is, I get off on the thrill of the fight. it's not about your last breakup you emo fags.
I've realized something... That people put more effort into making lyric videos than the bands/singers/rappers do into making their own music videos. We normal humans rule! \o/
The meaning to this song is that yeah he may have done the wrong thing, and his lifestyle may not be healthy, but he accepts it that is who he is and that nobody should fix him
Wish this sounded as awesome as it did when I first herd it on 94.3 KILO when I was super smashed with old friends from highscool... Damn good times take a 24 pack and listen to it
yup... I'm fine in the fire... pretty damn comfortable actually. be happy in your own skin people. don't let someone else define you. the only person that needs to be happy with you is you. f#@$ the rest
It aggravates me when people try and remind me I’m in my 20s. I have enough time to do what I want. That’s not what I told myself for a decade. It’s not right for me to give up that drive now. I’m gonna get what I want, that so many people get on accident.
