@ilciclone lol. it's fun to see people who think simplistically. fire is symbolic; fire consumes. being burned in the fire represents being consumed (becoming one with) God.

@ilciclone I'm glad you understand. Many Americans are too narrow minded

I think this song is a perfect song to explain the supernatural / transcendent, as we cannot sense it with the 5 natural senses, but need an ability to see without seeing.

anyone else just get chills?

It's still after twe years a great song.

@trevjf1 metaphorically or literally turned into fire? if you mean a literal book burning, i'd disagree. but if you mean in the sense that metal is placed in a fire to purify, burning away all that is dross, then let's do it!

@0RussianThunder0 mewithoutYou tend to do that a lot for me.

Based on the fact that Mewithoutyou is a Christian band, and the fact that they say themselves that they sing about Christianity, not to mention the fact that the lyrics are undoubtedly Christian themed, I'm assuming that you "need to learn before you decide" that you can conform someone's songs to your own worldview

@judahben05 Your narrow minded for thinking that only Americans are narrow minded.

Of the tens or hundreds of thousands of songs I've heard over the course of my young life, this is the most auspicious and beautiful song I've ever come across.
Also you lyrics are very wrong

This song is based off a Sri Lankan spiritualists teachings. you people need to learn before you decide what other people sing about.

@Deminion66 Abbot Lot came to Abbot Joseph and said: “Father, to the limit of my ability, I keep my little rule, my little fast, my prayer, meditation and contemplative silence; and to the limit of my ability, I work to cleanse my heart of thoughts; what more should I do?” The elder rose up in reply, and stretched out his hands to heaven, and his fingers became like ten lamps of fire. He said: “Why not be utterly changed into fire?”
