Lyrics for Going Down In Flames as interpreted by jebus81

Going Down In Flames Lyrics
Don’t tell me what to think
Cause I don’t care this time
Don’t tell me what you believe
Cause you won’t be there
To catch me when I fall
But you’ll need me when I’m not here at all
Miss me when I’m gone again, yeah

I’m going down in flames
I’m falling into this again, yeah
I’m going down in flames
I’m falling into this again

Don’t tell me how life is
Cause I don’t really want to know
Don’t tell me how this game ends
Cause we’ll just see how it goes
Catch me when I fall
Or you’ll need me when I’m not here at all
Miss me when I’m gone again, yeah

I’m going down in flames
I’m falling into this again, yeah
I’m going down in flames
I’m falling into this again, yeah

Now, I’m all the way down here
I’m falling
I’m all the way down here
I’m falling down again
I’m falling down
I’m falling down
I’m falling down

I’m going down in flames
I’m falling into this again,
I’m going down in flames
I’m falling into this again

Now, I’m all the way down here
I’m falling
All the way
All the way down here
I’m falling down again now I’m falling down

im with u m8 this is an awsome song. it gets me fired up when ever im feelin down and also gets me pumped up. i think it means that he was at the top of something like sport or something and then a competitor came along and took over him but he didnt give it up with out a fight. this is one of the best songs on the cd.

this is definitely one of the best songs on away from the sun... as for the meaning, it's about someone who keeps falling into the same cycle with the same person, as much as they don't want to. it's the type of relationship situation where someone is let down, swears that it won't happen again, then watches themselves as they 'fall into it' all over again. it's the point where you've succumbed to yourself when you know you'll only get hurt, and given in, even when you said you wouldn't.

I think this song is about a relationship and the girl, or whoever, is using him and doesn't really care about him

To me this song about falling into depression and feeling that no one cares:
"Don’t tell me what you believe
Cause you won’t be there
To catch me when I fall
But you’ll need me when I’m not here at all"

Great song.

This song is just incredible, i never get tired of listening to it.

I think this song is about the persona's relationship with someone who has taken advantage of him before, and now it's happening again.

this song is about how someone is trying to tell him what to think but he's saying kinda saying they don't have the right to be telling him what to do becaues they won't help him if he screws up. it's about this never ending cycle he gets into with someone and how he hates it and how the person thinks they know a lot more than they actually do.

i think this can be interpretted as either a political song or a song about relationships with parents. 1) with politics, Don’t tell me what to think 'Cause I don’t care this time. we have so many policies around the world and to say this kind of comment is rare because a lot of us abide by the rules so we don't ruin our reputation. and the schools nowadays especially private religious schools push religion down our throats and beliefs that are far-fetched. 2) again with the same line Don’t tell me what to think
Cause I don’t care this time so many times our parents tell us what we should think and over-ride our beliefs so this is sorta to tell them that "hey we're gaining independence so you won't be there to catch us when we fall."

I've kinda thought of this song as a sort of f-you to the world.
Not caring what people think, and when you realize no one really cares, then you go out with a bang so people might see what they were missing

This song is obvious. Is like he was blind, a she used him. He discover that and he doesnt mind, but she's trying to use him again and he doesnt mind.
