| Thirteen Senses – Into The Fire Lyrics | 17 years ago |

I agree with thirteensenseskid that it means having the courage to take a risk and do something you've never done, or perhaps even dreamed of doing, before. The phrase "turning white and senses dying" really sticks with me, and I agree with derek808 in that it refers to the sensation you feel when you're doing that new 'thing'. Another part that sticks with me is the part that says "From the summer to the spring, From the mountain to the air, From Samaritan to sin, And it’s waiting on the end". To me, from the summer to the spring refers to the fact that everything must, in a way, die before it may truly live. The summer is usually a time of droughts, and, conversely, the spring is the time when the earth is at its 'greenest'. In the summer, things dry out and die if they don't have enough water, but once the spring comes, the earth regains its vitality. This 'death before life' also refers to the way in which plants must die before they become seeds and grow once more. And humans are said to have come from the earth. Perhaps we are similar in this way. The 'death before life' could also refer to something such as facing your fears. I know that when I'm afraid to do something, I sort of, in a way, die a little inside. . .somewhat. But once I actually face my fears and do whatever it is that I was afraid of, I usually feel better. . .like a new part of me was awakened. |
