The phrase 'With my alarm bells / Keeping me dull' does a lot of work here.
It's not just about ignoring warnings; it's about letting those warnings become a kind of sedative.

With my alarm bells / Keeping me dull
The phrase 'With my alarm bells / Keeping me dull' does a lot of work here. It's not just about ignoring warnings; it's about letting those warnings become a kind of sedative. The whole verse feels stuck in that dulled state, watching things burn.
It captures that specific exhaustion of knowing you're making a mistake and letting the knowledge of it numb you instead of change you. A very Cambriana sentiment.
The way the phrase 'Breaking the law' repeats, detached from any specific action, just hangs there as a worn-out badge.

When i was younger
Breaking the law
With my alarm bells
Keeping me dull
If i believed you
I'd be on my way
Watching the fire
Dust in the air
Oh, i was off
I was here
With you
Watching the fire
Breaking the law
With my alarm bells
Keeping me dull
