Discover the story of the song > This Is My Life – Firewater

The protagonist of this song doesn't like authority and doesn't feel like they belong with most people. They lost their home and their partner. They are saying that this is not a joke, but their actual life. They compare themselves to an emperor with new clothes, meaning people think they are important but they aren't. They feel like they can't do much against a big group of people, but they know that time keeps moving forward.
