| Foster the People – Fire Escape Lyrics | 11 years ago |
| I believe he is saying he is a last resort to others. His heart pumps out old "red paint". Red Paint here meaning blood, in which he pumps out towards everything. He is making a metaphor with himself on how he is a fire escape, making him safety for others but not getting anything else in return. He wants others to save themselves and not just rely on him being the one doing all the business, but to think for yourself and fight your own battles. | |
