Lyrics to Fire in the City- analysed

I think that you were sent to haunt me - haunting memories of a past relationship

I think that you wont let me go -Not over her ex boyfriend.

In my eyes it will always haunt me -Eyes reference to seeing, visual memories of relationship.

and I just wanted you to know -"You" reference to the boy or perhaps many ex boyfriends.

In this life we will always take it -Reference to taking things without realising

For granted and we'll never make it -Taking things for granted e.g her past relationship

I think that they were sent to haunt me - Collective "they" ex's- audience interaction

3 times 4 times 'til I explode - 3/4- boys perhaps? explode- overload- anger.

you said that you don't want to go x4 -Ex said that he was never going to leave and he did

(you said that you don't want to go) x2

Sometimes I find I want to break down -Had enough of feelings this way- breaking down

I run my head into your ground -Metaphor- his ground he is driving her crazy

In my eyes it will always haunt me -Eyes- reference to "Seeing".

But i think i'll watch until you drown -Trying to drown out memories, drown out her mind or

(I think i'll watch until you drown) revenge perhaps?

In this life we will it always take it eh x7

For granted and we'll never make it

I think that they were sent to harm me

3 times 4 times 'til I explode

You said that you don't want to go x4

(You said that you don't want to go) x2

I want to run I want to run -Run away from problems, anger, frustration.

Away away away away -Repetition of getting away

I want to run I want to run I want to run

Away away away away

You said that you don't want to go x3

(you said that you don't want to go) x2

you said that you said that

you said

you said

you that you don't want to go
