🎶 I See Fire song analysis

The singer tells the story of a people living in a mountain, and the tragedy that befalls them. He warns the people to be careful, and if the sky fills with smoke and fire, they must all burn together. He imagines a final toast to his people and his Father as they watch the flames burn down the side of the mountain. As the sky darkens and the shadows fall, the people cry out. The singer laments that he will never forget what happened and how the fire burned on the mountainside.
