RUNNIN
Chasing Dreams: A Poetic Journey Through Longing and Loss
Lyrics
Try to make noise to fill the void
Expressing an attempt to create noise to overcome emptiness or silence.
Try to move on but I got no choice
Feeling compelled to move forward despite having no real alternatives.
How did you touch me oh so deep I can't recall the surface?
Reflecting on a profound connection that is hard to remember on the surface.
I cannot see, so hard to breathe, my heart burns like a furnace
Experiencing emotional difficulty, with heartache depicted metaphorically as a burning furnace.
Every now and then I see your face in my sleep
Recalling the presence of a person's face in dreams, even in sleep.
Comes in waves that crash all day and never recede
Describing emotional turmoil that persists continuously without relief.
Say that dreams come true but they don't tell me by what means
Questioning the authenticity of dreams coming true without understanding the process.
Wish I could hold you but I'll settle for my dreams
Expressing a desire to physically hold someone but settling for dreams.
Runnin to you, Runnin to you
Repeatedly expressing the act of running towards someone, possibly symbolizing pursuit or longing.
Runnin to you, Runnin to you
-Runnin to you (into you, I'm runnin)
-Runnin to you (into you, I'm runnin)
-Runnin to you (into you, I'm runnin)
-Runnin to you (into you, I'm runnin)
-Try to man up but I'm just a boy
Acknowledging a struggle to mature, feeling inadequate.
Tried to cheer up but he took my joy
Attempting to find happiness but encountering a setback.
I called the cops and told 'em "Stop that man, he stole my heart!"
Metaphorically reporting a heartbreak and seeking justice through calling the cops.
Laughed in my face and told me "Sonny, this is just the start."
Encountering dismissive reactions, being told that heartbreak is just the beginning.
You make it so easy to give in
Expressing vulnerability and the ease with which one gives in to emotions.
More intoxicating than gin
Comparing emotional impact to the intoxicating nature of gin.
Counting my blessings as sins
Acknowledging both positive and negative experiences as blessings and sins.
When I think it's over, it begins
Highlighting the cyclical nature of challenges, with every end marking a new beginning.
Every now and then I see your face in my sleep
Reiteration of dreaming about the person and settling for dreams as a substitute for physical closeness.
Comes in waves that crash all day and never recede
-Say that dreams come true, but they don't tell me by what means
-Wish I could hold you, but I'll settle for my dreams
-Runnin to you, Runnin to you
Continued repetition of the theme of running towards someone, emphasizing the intensity of the pursuit.
Runnin to you, Runnin to you
-Runnin to you (into you, I'm runnin)
-Runnin to you (into you, I'm runnin)
-Runnin to you (into you, I'm runnin)
-Runnin to you (into you, I'm runnin)
-Runnin to you, Runnin to you
-Runnin to you, Runnin to you
-Runnin to you (into you, I'm runnin)
-Runnin to you (into you, I'm runnin)
-Runnin to you (into you, I'm runnin)
-Runnin to you (into you, I'm runnin)
-Wish I could hold you, but I'll settle for my dreams
Final expression of the desire to hold someone, settling for dreams as a substitute.
