Sleeping (In the Fire) Lyrics
Touch, touching the flame's desires
Feeling the pain's denial,
And your finger's in the fire
Look, look in the candle light
See in the flame of life
And my spell is our lie
Taste the love, The Lucifer's magic that makes you numb
The passion and all the pain are one
You're sleeping in the fire
Taste the love, the Lucifer's magic that makes you numb
You feel what it does and you're drunk on love
You're sleeping in the fire
I gaze as the flame and fire burn
And cry out the name of which I yearn
Taste the love, The Lucifer's magic that makes you numb
The passion and all the pain are one
You're sleeping in the fire
Taste the love, the Lucifer's magic that makes you numb
You feel what it does and you're drunk on love
You're sleeping in the fire
Feeling the pain's denial,
And your finger's in the fire
Look, look in the candle light
See in the flame of life
And my spell is our lie
The passion and all the pain are one
You're sleeping in the fire
You feel what it does and you're drunk on love
You're sleeping in the fire
And cry out the name of which I yearn
The passion and all the pain are one
You're sleeping in the fire
You feel what it does and you're drunk on love
You're sleeping in the fire

I think the song is about a satanic love spell. If you read the "Satanic Bible", The section of Satanic magick, you'll see why I think so.
@jasonwzq 100% this is a lust spell.

The song evokes a deep connection between love and suffering, using metaphors of fire and pain to explore the intensity of a passionate relationship. The idea of "touching the fire" suggests the risk and attraction to something that can be destructive.
The "magic of Lucifer" may symbolize a seduction that, while intoxicating, can also be dangerous, implying that love brings both pleasure and suffering. The repetition of "you're sleeping in the fire" suggests a complete surrender to this experience, despite its consequences.
In summary, the song speaks about how love can be a powerful force that unites passion and pain, reflecting an internal struggle between desire and the risk of losing oneself in that flame.
@SkaldLeoZ That's a very wise answer. Thank you 🙂

Great song, it's another one of Blackie's sex fantasy songs he likes to write, it's about sadism and masocism.
As WASP Songs go, this one's actually kind of pretty.
