Story Behind The Song

I wrote this as a follow up to Amber Eyes, it was meant to be sequel to that song, but I realized the song had some deeper themes then just romantic relationships. It's more about finding your light in the haziness of our modern world.

Song Description

An anthemic song that may seem like a love song but can have a deeper meaning of finding someone real in a world of confusion and deceit. It's definitely a love song, but it's more about feeling lost in todays world with how much social media and corporate media try to shape the narratives of things that happen in the world, and it's more about making your opinion known than it is making the truth known. Chorus features a chant section.

Lyrics

Our World is on Fire

V1:
And then you whispered into my ear,
as the sky had consumed me,
In a flash of light, I woke to find a new life,
had been taken from me,

And as our time here is ending,
We search for our legacy,
What will we leave behind, will it stand against time,
is it worth understanding,

Chorus:
Our world is on fire,
I am searching for you,
Our world is on fire,
And I will search for the truth,

In the heat of the moment,
Will there still be something left for you,
Our world is on fire,
Can we find something new,

V2
And now we're dancing these dark days,
swaying, the lights are flashing,
and when this feelings stops and the whole world just drops,
we'll be found and then lost again,

Bridge:
I'm reaching for something,
Something I cannot see,
So give me everything,
Everything you can give me,
