I think as he becomes an adult it is easier for him to come to terms with what happened to him. We should never get rid of what can drive us, even if it stems from something bad, Just contain it don't allow it to control us (ie-keep it on a leash) and we should use it to move forward and be where we need to be. It is referring to the fact that things happen to everyone and those things change us, inspire us, etc.
However, he is using what happened to him, his fire to push him forward. He has a bit of that flame in him, as flames and fire can spread. Since it was impactful, it is not hard to believe that it left residual damage to him. As I stated above, I think the flame was the impactful event. I think the use of fire here is very meaningful. It wasn't that he was actually creating "fire", he was just recognizing what was inside of him. However, he realizes that it is something that will always be apart of him, something that would dictate certain decisions and courses of actions. I think that he is saying that at 16 he felt as if he may be allowing his fire to spread out of control due to his own actions (gasoline). Teenage years are often a time when people have an emerging sense of who they are and who they may be. I knew that something would always rule me, However, it could be anything negatively eventful. Again if we look at the flame as abuse, it is something that he sees all the time, something powerful in it. Something he has to deal with all the time. He is trapped experience the impactful event. I believe the flame represents what was tragic. The abuse goes on long enough to "kill" his soul and the voices "die" because good or bad no longer make a difference. He has no escape, no choices, as he is just a child. We could be hearing the description of an abused child.

He indicated that some things were good "singing", and some were not "screaming", inthis event or series of events. I think this part indicated that something tragic may have happened when this person was a child. It's about taking those terrible things that may have happened and creating strength. Song MeaningI think this song is about battling but also embracing personal demons.
