This passionate anthem by the acclaimed artist explores the concept of intense, consuming love. The metaphor of being a 'house on fire' symbolizes an uncontrollable affection and desire that the singer feels towards her partner. It conveys the idea that her love is so powerful and overwhelming, it's as if she's ablaze. She doesn't want to extinguish this flame; instead, she wants to keep burning, despite knowing that her partner is the cause of this fiery emotion. The reference to drinking the partner in 'like oxygen' signifies how essential he is for her existence. Through these vivid metaphors, Sia beautifully captures the essence of passionate love and desire.
House On Fire
Lyrics
I don't like to wait too long, to wait too long, wait too long
Bring it out and bring it strong, bring it, baby
I feel the pain and it feels good, I know it would
Your heart burns slow, I feel the pain and I cry out, I cry out
I need you, I need you
Babe, oh I want to drink you in
Like oxygen, like oxygen
Baby, I'm a house on fire
And I want to keep burning
Boy, I'm going up in flames
And you're to blame
Yeah, you're to blame
Baby, I'm a house on fire
And I want to keep burning
I wanna keep burning
I wanna keep burning
I wanna keep burning
Baby, I'm a house on fire
I wanna keep burning
I wanna keep burning
I wanna keep burning
Baby, I'm a house on fire
So take me to the heavens now
As we burn down, as we are found
Take me to the heavens now
My heart screams out
I need you, I need you
Babe, oh I want to drink you in
Like oxygen, like oxygen
Baby, I'm a house on fire
And I want to keep burning
Boy, I'm going up in flames
And you're to blame
Yeah, you're to blame
Baby, I'm a house on fire
And I want to keep burning
I wanna keep burning
I wanna keep burning
I wanna keep burning
Baby, I'm a house on fire
I wanna keep burning
I wanna keep burning
I wanna keep burning
Baby, I'm a house on fire
Love me, to the beat of a drum, to the beat of a drum, yeah
Love me, till the walls give in, yeah
Love me, to the beat of a drum, to the beat of a drum, yeah
Love me, I don't wanna say, babe
Babe, oh I want to drink you in
Like oxygen, like oxygen
Baby, I'm a house on fire
And I wanna keep burning
Boy, I'm going up in flames
And you're to blame
Yeah, you're to blame
Baby, I'm a house on fire
And I want to keep burning
I wanna keep burning
I wanna keep burning
I wanna keep burning
Baby, I'm a house on fire
I wanna keep burning
I wanna keep burning
I wanna keep burning
Baby, I'm a house on fire
Baby, I'm a house on fire
