Running From Lions
Escaping the Flames of Regret
Lyrics
Get me out of this place, before I cause more damage,
Expressing a desire to leave the current situation before causing more harm.
A small price to pay for building houses out of matchsticks;
Acknowledging the consequences of one's actions as a small price for fragile accomplishments.
And when things get too hot, you've got me to blame for,
Taking responsibility for the heat in relationships, being the cause of fiery conflicts in the name of love.
Every fire that breaks out in every lover's name, so
Linking personal actions to the ignition of passionate disputes in relationships.
Don't forget, we've got unfinished business,
Highlighting pending matters and untold stories in a relationship.
Stories yet to unfold,
Emphasizing the presence of stories yet to be revealed in the unfolding narrative.
Tales that must be retold,
Stressing the importance of revisiting and recounting essential tales.
And I regret not knowing when to put an end to all this madness,
Expressing regret for not knowing when to end chaotic situations in the past.
Keeps me wanting,
Describing a persistent desire or attraction that continues despite challenges.
Keeps me wanting more
Reiterating the enduring nature of the desire for more in the face of difficulties.
Sell me out I'm yesterday's old news,
Feeling betrayed or abandoned, labeled as outdated news from the past.
Phrases left on paper,
Referring to written words left behind, suggesting unresolved communication.
Black ink bleeding through
Visualizing emotional pain through the metaphor of ink bleeding on paper.
The pages where we made our history.
Connecting the emotional pain to the pages where personal history was created.
Call me foolish,
Admitting to being perceived as foolish and experiencing a sense of hopelessness.
I feel hopeless
Expressing a feeling of despair and lack of optimism.
Like a dear caught in the headlights
Feeling vulnerable and unprepared, akin to a deer caught in a dangerous situation.
I won't know what hit me
Anticipating a sudden impact or consequence without prior awareness.
Running from lions,
Using the metaphor of "Running from lions" to describe a perilous escape.
Never felt like such a mistake
Describing the act of running away as a significant mistake.
Don't forget, we've got unfinished business,
Reiterating the presence of unresolved matters and untold stories in the relationship.
Stories yet to unfold,
Emphasizing the continuing need to reveal and share important narratives.
Tales that must be retold,
Highlighting the importance of revisiting and retelling essential tales.
And I regret not knowing when to put an end to all this madness,
Expressing regret for not knowing when to end chaotic situations in the past.
Keeps me wanting,
Describing a persistent desire or attraction that continues despite challenges.
Keeps me wanting more
Reiterating the enduring nature of the desire for more in the face of difficulties.
