This hauntingly beautiful track delves into the depths of intense, passionate love. The lyrics paint a vivid picture of an all-consuming relationship that's both destructive and transformative. The metaphorical use of 'fire' signifies the trials and tribulations one is willing to endure for the sake of love. It also represents purification and renewal, suggesting that the protagonist seeks transformation through this relationship. The repeated plea "Don't give me hope" indicates a fear of vulnerability and disappointment, yet there's an underlying desperation for reciprocation. This song beautifully captures the dichotomy between fear and desire in love, underlining how it can simultaneously ignite pain and pleasure.
Dusk
Lyrics
Watch this empire as it burns and dissipates
Haunted, on fire, on the wings that we create
Angels (angels), vampires (vampires)
One breathes life unto the other
Branded (branded), baptized (baptized)
By your love and by your hunger
And I would give you my life
One sin leads to another
And I would go through fire to get to you
In these confines, true love's shadow still awaits
Cracked and (cracked and) fractured (fractured)
Held anew and whole again
Can you contain my love? Call me back together
'Cause I will run through the fire to get to you
Don't give me up
Don't let me go
Don't give me up
Don't let me go
And I will go through the fire
And I will go through the fire
And I will go through the fire
And I will
