I just listened to this album for the first time and I'm absolutely enamored with their style. I have to agree with spongetastic; the songwriting is so simple, and yet the percussion manages to keep it feeling fresh even through multiple listens through. I'm a big fan so far.
This song was stuck in my head for awhile, and now that i've seen the lyrics i'm sure it will be there much longer.
I think it's obvious that this song is about change, with all the references to time. I think the "fire" represents that transition that occurs internally, whether it's trying to deal with a recent split with your significant other or a split with the way you view yourself. Change usually comes through inner trials (by fire). A wonderful opening song, and a strong message we all can relate to.
