10192026 Fire on the Side

Today is October 19th, 2026, and we are exploring the energy of a fire on the side.

This song is about literally being somebody's fire on the side.

You know, somebody who's in another relationship, but the narrator's the side piece, and how much that sucks, and how much when you're the side piece, you don't matter.

You really don't.

You may think that you matter, you may think that you are important, but ultimately you really aren't because, well, they're committed, they've got other commitments, they're doing other stuff, and you're just the side action, the distraction, the fun.

So you need to stop being the fire on the side and start being your own amazing self.

So this is really speaking to our self-worth and knowing your self-worths.

It's all about self-esteem and finding your power to shine in your own right rather than to be somebody's fire on the side.

She knows someone has to lose.

Someone always has to lose when it comes to being the fire on the side.

And do you want to be on the losing side of that or do you want to be with somebody who cares about you? And I'm not just talking about relationships like, you know, romantic relationships.

This could be friendships.

Are you just, are you the ride to get your friend there so they can meet somebody else and hang out with that somebody else? Work relationships.

Are you just the placeholder until they find the person that they really want in that place? Like, stop being the fire on the side.

Understand yourself worse.

Know your worth.

Know

your

fucking

worth, as that Scottish guy on TikTok says.

Know your worth and don't you fucking forget it.
