    A person who is going to start a new relationship.'start making fires'
    They are curious as to how this will go, will there be 'love without lust?' But are already pretty resigned-'what are feelings without emotions?'
    They are going into the relationship anyway. Partly 'for the thrill'They could be talking to themselves,a friend, their ex, or their intended : 'and not let go of my hand.' -they might say this because they fear disapproval
    The other style in the song is when they ask for the new realtionship.

    "1-I'm going in for the kill
    2-I'm doing it for a thrill
    3-I'm hoping you'll understand
    4-and not let go of my hand"

    Interpretation:
    1-She found a man to cheat on with you. She's going to go through with having sex with him.
    2-She's going to explore her sexuality with this man, she's ready to have a one night stand and risk her entire relationship with you, she's going to risk everything for the thrill of having sex with another man.
    3-If you find out, she hopes you understand it was only to explore and open her mind. She needed to have sex with another man to experience something different.
    4-If she can hide this from you forever, you will never let her go, you will always love her, because you will never know she slept with another person.


    "5-They say we can love who we trust
    6-But what is love without lust
    7-Two hearts with accurate devotion
    8-What are feelings without emotions?"

    Interpretation:
    5-You put 100% of your trust in her, she knows you trust her 100%. You never thought she would betray your trust.
    6-She loves you as you love her, but she wants more than love. She needs to find it and you cannot give it to her. She finds lust in another man. The excitement to sleep with another and hide it from you.
    7-Both you and her love each other. Two hearts that is seemingly devoted to one another.
    8-But she is still curious how it feels to sleep with someone without sharing those same emotions. To have sex with a man with "no strings attached"


    9-"I had my hopes out on the line
    10-Well, they'll be ready for you in time
    11-If you leave them out too long
    12-They'll be withered by the sun"

    Interpretation:
    9-Her hopes and future are all in you, the one she truly loves, she wants to spend the rest of her life with you. But she is going to leave everything she feels for you outside the bedroom when she fucks him.
    10-She will put her clothes back on and come home to you, when she returns home, everything will be as they were and you will never find out. Her love for you will return once the deed is done.
    11-If the affair lasts too long...
    12-her affair will be exposed. She can't keep doing it or her lover might become suspicious. A friend might find out and tell him. She might slip up and expose herself. Anything can happen.
