Fire To My Soul Lyrics
We flow with bitter words that file sharp our teeth
And we bite off our own tongues
We trample any trace of your divinity’s hope
And we’ll sacrifice our young
With our eyes sewn shut now the light can’t shine
Oh, we’ll never wake from dead
And when you beg for us to open up and let you in
Then we’ll cut you out instead
You promised you’d give us your word
We never believed it was true
And we pretend that we never heard
Cus we still don’t believe in you
I heard you calling, setting fire to my soul
Is this the voice we die for?
We die for life
We built a wall to keep you out
Ignoring every word
And we saw your face behind our thoughts
Apathetic to what we’d heard
You promised you’d give us your word
We never believed it was true
And we pretend that we never heard
Cus we still don’t believe in you
I heard you calling, setting fire to my soul
Is this the voice we die for?
We die for life
Why does it falter? We built it all ourselves
Why does it hurt so bad, forsaking all this help?
Why are we choking on pills designed to heal?
We threw our hearts away cus we’re too afraid to feel
I heard you calling, setting fire to my soul
Is this the voice we die for?
We die for life
And we bite off our own tongues
We trample any trace of your divinity’s hope
And we’ll sacrifice our young
With our eyes sewn shut now the light can’t shine
Oh, we’ll never wake from dead
And when you beg for us to open up and let you in
Then we’ll cut you out instead
You promised you’d give us your word
We never believed it was true
And we pretend that we never heard
Cus we still don’t believe in you
Is this the voice we die for?
We die for life
Ignoring every word
And we saw your face behind our thoughts
Apathetic to what we’d heard
You promised you’d give us your word
We never believed it was true
And we pretend that we never heard
Cus we still don’t believe in you
Is this the voice we die for?
We die for life
Why does it hurt so bad, forsaking all this help?
Why are we choking on pills designed to heal?
We threw our hearts away cus we’re too afraid to feel
Is this the voice we die for?
We die for life

from demonhunter.net “Fire To My Soul” is written from the viewpoint of a stubborn non-believer. It’s about someone who sees God’s work and feels his pull, but does all they can to ignore it and pretend that it doesn’t exist. When I sing, “I heard you calling, setting fire to my soul. Is this the voice we die for?” I’m showing how God is interacting in this person’s life. At this point, the non-believer is challenged when he hears a voice and he wonders if it’s the voice of the Lord. At the end of the song, this person’s world is falling apart and they’re wondering why. They’re starting to realize that living according to their own agenda is getting them nowhere.
My sheep hear My voice, I know them, and they follow Me. John 10:27

yeah man i agree, freakn awesome song!
i think the part of the song that says "Why does it falter? We built it all ourselves Why does it hurt so bad, forsaking all this help? Why are we choking on pills designed to heal? We threw our hearts away cus we’re too afraid to feel" means that basically, without god's help, we cant do much of anything, medicine stops healing, etc. ohh, and ya, this song RULES!
i think that this song could also mean that all people, even christians, sometimes ignore God and what he is saying. sometimes we act like we dont believe in him to be cool, or to fit in with other people. we push him away when he is calling to us
to me, this song is about the point of view of a serious non-believer. great beat and awsome intro. this song rules!!
this is a cool song, because it puts us in the minds of nonbelievers, or maybe reminds us of when we were rejecting God and then we heard him calling to us that ignited a passion for him
