The Wildfire (If It Was True) Lyrics
Well there's something in the way
She said I hate you 'cause you breathe
It's not the first time that I heard it
But this one is out of reach
I got my mind set on destruction
And if it will strike me hard
Will you remember me
Oh it's in the way you set your life
On your alarm and hit the snoozer
You waste your life expectancy
You throw away your hopes and dreams
The night will never end, it'll stay forever
Well the dark will eat you up inside
So I smile and shed a tear
And said when will you go away
She said who cares you`re not
Entitled to ask those things today
Don't let the salt get in your eye
Don't let the ghost get in your heart
There were sweet memories
In the corner of my mind
They were telling me to throw up
All the things that I want to hide that
We're having fun in the daytime
We'll chase the stars in the nighttime
And we'll take the sun in the morning
We just don't care if they see us fall
If it was true
Well today I bought the paper by myself
And cried 'cause everyone was happy
And on the streets well they where dancing
To some kind of Puerto Rican music
That we would hate
But we would just move along to
So if you're driving in your car
And hear this song on radio1
Well I know that it sound silly
'Cause you don`t have a car
But I just read it in a book
That these things happen in the fictive world
That's when I smiled and shed a tear
And said when will you go away
She said who cares you're not
Entitled to ask those things today
Don't let the salt get in your eye
Don't let the ghost get in your heart
There were sweet memories
In the corner of my mind
They were telling me to throw up
All the things that I want to hide that
We're having fun in the daytime
We'll chase the stars in the nighttime
And we'll take the sun in the morning
We just don't care if they see us fall
Just don't care
Just don't care at all
If it was true
Well there is something in the air
That makes it difficult to live
The way we lived back in the days
When we had all the time to kill
It's just the wildfire burning
There's no way to put it out
Just a wildfire spreading
Through my days and through my nights
Don't ask no questions
Don't ever tell no lie
I'm so tired of explaining
Every minor detail of my life
We're having fun in the daytime
We'll chase the stars in the nighttime
And we'll catch the sun in the morning
We just don't care if they see us fall
We're having fun in the daytime
We'll chase the stars in the nighttime
And we'll catch the sun in the morning
We just don't care if they see us fall
Just don't care
Just don't care at all
If it was true
She said I hate you 'cause you breathe
It's not the first time that I heard it
But this one is out of reach
I got my mind set on destruction
And if it will strike me hard
Will you remember me
On your alarm and hit the snoozer
You waste your life expectancy
You throw away your hopes and dreams
The night will never end, it'll stay forever
Well the dark will eat you up inside
And said when will you go away
She said who cares you`re not
Entitled to ask those things today
Don't let the salt get in your eye
Don't let the ghost get in your heart
There were sweet memories
In the corner of my mind
They were telling me to throw up
All the things that I want to hide that
We'll chase the stars in the nighttime
And we'll take the sun in the morning
We just don't care if they see us fall
If it was true
And cried 'cause everyone was happy
And on the streets well they where dancing
To some kind of Puerto Rican music
That we would hate
But we would just move along to

Don't let the ghost get in your heart

We'll chase the stars in the nighttime
And we'll catch the sun in the morning
We just don't care if they see us fall
Just don't care
Just don't care at all
If it was true

I love this so soooo much!! It was my first favourite one, when I got the new album^^ Perhapst it´s abput their time as a band, and their celebrety... "Well there's something in the way She said I hate you 'cause you breathe It's not the first time that I heard it" Perhapst thats the bad feedback they get from some people who, don´t like them.. and: "I'm so tired of explaining Every minor detail of my life" is perhapst about the interviews, they have to give and they just want to say: Oh, what the hell, we´re just having fun in the daytime etc. and we don´t care about what you think.." It´s just a tought..and there are a lot of other thoughts in my head^^ so mhm...I don´t know..^^
I think my first post didn´t work-.- I love this so damn much!! It was my first favourite one, when I got the new album^^ Perhaps it´s about their time as a band, and their celebrety... "Well there's something in the way She said I hate you 'cause you breathe It's not the first time that I heard it" that could be about the bad feedback they get from some people who, don´t like them.. and: "I'm so tired of explaining Every minor detail of my life" means the interviews, they have to give and they just want to say: Oh, what the hell, we´re just having fun in the daytime etc. and we don´t care about what you think.." It´s just a tought...I´m not really sure about that and it could be about a lot of other things^^
to me it seems like when you meet your old friend you had so much fun and you once spent so much time with, maybe even a partner. Now when you don't have so much time and you can see the relationship can not continue as it used to because you're liv ing a different life now. You're just asking yourself "Was it true?" and you're so sorry it is over ("I shed a tear and asked will you go away") whilst the other person still lives the way they used to. The videoclip to this song is sooo amazing. Initially, I preferred Bjorn for some reason but Gustaf's songs are so powerful. I mean...every song of MD is powerful but one can recognise who was it written by.
