Lyrics

I'm not afraid of shadows

I do not fear darkness or difficulties.

But I am of getting lost in them

However, I fear losing myself in challenges.

I see better in the dark

I can see and understand better in difficult or unclear situations.

You told me not to run cause

You advised me not to avoid problems because avoiding them may lead to becoming what I'm trying to avoid.

You become what you run from

Running away from problems may cause one to become the very thing they are trying to escape.

"Babe, I'm not that far"

You reassure me that you are not too far away despite the challenges.


I know I'm different

I am aware of my uniqueness.

When the fire's in my eyes

My intensity is evident when my eyes are filled with passion or determination.


Babe, keep in mind that I've lost mine

Reminding you that I have faced and overcome difficulties in the past.

And I don't want my nights

I do not want my troubled times to negatively impact you.

To come after you

I don't want my struggles to affect our relationship.

But you kiss the bruises

You comfort me by kissing the metaphorical wounds or scars.

Your favorite accessory

You find solace in healing the emotional scars, considering them as a significant part of me.

A split lip and I've got it

A split lip, a metaphor for emotional pain or hardship, and I am experiencing it.


We watched the city burn

We witnessed the chaos and destruction of the city.

Feet nestled on the dash

We observed the turmoil with a sense of detachment, symbolized by our feet resting on the dashboard.

Boredom

Boredom, possibly indicating a lack of fulfillment or excitement despite the external chaos.


I know I'm different

Reiteration of the awareness of one's uniqueness.

When the fire's in my eyes

Expressing intensity through the fire in the eyes, possibly indicating passion or determination.


Babe, keep in mind that I've lost mine

A reminder of having faced and overcome personal challenges.

And I don't want my nights

I don't want my personal struggles to affect our shared moments, particularly the nights.

To come after you

Reiteration of the desire to shield the relationship from the impact of personal challenges.

But you kiss the bruises

Your act of kissing the bruises serves as a comforting gesture in the face of emotional wounds.
