GASOLINE Lyrics
- Lyrics
- Meaning
[Verse 1]
You're nothing but gasoline
Startin' fires since seventeen
Silver spoon in Daddy's jeans
You go, "Four, three, two, one," count it, count it down
Mister in a stolen dress
You're so dark, but you paint it red
Soakin' wet in your golden bed
You go, "Four, three, two, one," count it, count it down
[Chorus]
How are you sleepin' at night? How do you close both your eyes?
Living with all of those lives on your hands?
Standing alone on that hill, using your fuel to kill
We won't take it standing still, watch us dance
How are you sleepin' at night? How do you close both your eyes?
Living with all of those lives on your hands?
Standing alone on that hill, using your fuel to kill
We won't take it standing still, watch us dance
[Post-Chorus]
We're gonna dance on gasoline
We're gonna dance on gasoline
We're gonna dance on gasoline
[Verse 2]
Your ego is dangerous
Your own blood is losing trust
With neighbors left in the dust
We go, "Four, three, two, one," count it, count it down
Sitting on a stolen throne
Playing God with a heart of stone
The whole world is waiting for you to go
Down, down, down, down, down
[Chorus]
How are you sleepin' at night? How do you close both your eyes?
Living with all of those lives on your hands?
Standing alone on that hill, using your fuel to kill
We won't take it standin' still, watch us dance
How are you sleepin' at night? How do you close both your eyes?
Living with all of those lives on your hands?
Standing alone on that hill, using your fuel to kill
We won't take it standin' still, watch us dance
[Post-Chorus]
We're gonna dance on gasoline
We're gonna dance on gasoline
We're gonna dance on gasoline
[Verse 1]
In the first verse, Damiano paints a vivid picture of a privileged individual who has been causing trouble since a young age. The metaphor of "gasoline" signifies the person's destructive nature. This individual hides behind a facade, depicted by phrases like "silver spoon in Daddy's jeans" and "paint it red," indicating a life of deceit and superficiality.
[Chorus]
The chorus questions how this individual can live with themselves, highlighting the moral and ethical implications of their actions. Damiano calls out the hypocrisy and the blood on their hands, symbolizing the lives affected by their actions. The imagery of "standing alone on that hill" suggests isolation due to their deeds, while the declaration "we won't take it standing still, watch us dance" represents the resistance and defiance of those oppressed by such figures.
[Post-Chorus]
The post-chorus, repeating "We're gonna dance on gasoline," symbolizes the rebellion and resilience of the oppressed. Despite the attempts to suppress and destroy them, they rise and resist, turning the destructive fuel into a symbol of their strength and unity.
[Verse 2]
The second verse delves deeper into the character's corrupt nature, describing their ego and the erosion of trust among those close to them. The phrase "sitting on a stolen throne" suggests they have taken power illegitimately and are now playing God with a heart of stone. The countdown in the lyrics signifies the anticipation of their downfall, as the world watches and waits for their demise.
[Chorus]
The repeated chorus reinforces the message of accountability and the demand for justice. It reiterates the questions about the individual's conscience and the impact of their actions on others. The call for defiance remains strong, urging the collective to stand up and fight against the corruption and greed.
[Post-Chorus]
The repetition of the post-chorus emphasizes the ongoing struggle and the unyielding spirit of the oppressed. The imagery of dancing on gasoline becomes a powerful symbol of turning destruction into empowerment, demonstrating the resilience and determination to overcome adversity.
