- Burning Up Lyrics / with translationsI wrote a protest song about you, about you
Set off on a long march without you, without you
Set off on a long march without you, without you
I wrote a protest song about you, about you
About what's left that lies between us, I'm walking
So many things we're burning for
I set myself on fire without you, without you
I wrote a protest song about you, about you
That not a soul was meant to hear except you
I wrote a protest song about you, about you
I cheated gravity to chase you, to chase you
And through the burning space between us you're falling
You have a long way, long way to fall
I set myself on fire without you, without you
I wrote a protest song about you, about you
That not a soul was meant to hear except you
So many things we're burning for
So many things we're burning for
So many things we're burning for
So many things we're burning for
So many things we're burning for
So many things we're burning for
So many things we're burning for
Set off on a long march without you, without you
Set off on a long march without you, without you
I wrote a protest song about you, about you
About what's left that lies between us, I'm walking
So many things we're burning for
I set myself on fire without you, without you
I wrote a protest song about you, about you
That not a soul was meant to hear except you
I wrote a protest song about you, about you
I cheated gravity to chase you, to chase you
You have a long way, long way to fall
I set myself on fire without you, without you
I wrote a protest song about you, about you
That not a soul was meant to hear except you
So many things we're burning for
So many things we're burning for
So many things we're burning for
So many things we're burning for
So many things we're burning for
So many things we're burning for
So many things we're burning for

When we try to interpret the meaning, in Ladytron's 'Burning Up' the metaphors used like 'setting oneself on fire' and 'cheating gravity' to get love speak of the great lengths one could go for the sake of connection, thus portraying the East and West of love one goes through. The lyrics of burning up mainly deal with pain, angst, social criticism, and even anger in a certain way. However, the song simultaneously puts forward the message of protest and rebellion, emotional turmoil and sacrifice, unrequited love and pursuit. The lyrics talk about strong feelings as well as self-destructive behavior, for instance, 'I burned myself out without you.' The line, along with the mention of writing a protest song meant for one person only, reveals a level of maturity and complexity that might not be appropriate for kids. Even though the words used are not explicit, the imagery and language still suggest a kind of desperation and passion that would fit a PG-13 rating.
