The Chase
The Unending Pursuit: Chasing Salvation Amidst Chaos
Lyrics
I always thought that you could come and save us
The speaker had a persistent belief that someone, possibly a savior figure, could rescue or help them.
I always thought that you could come and save us
-I always thought that you could come and save us
-I always thought that you could come and save us
-In this storm we are all one
Amidst a challenging situation (storm), everyone is unified; no one is walking, and all are running, suggesting a collective struggle.
No one walks but we all run
-Shout out your own name
An encouragement to assert one's identity and express oneself, even though others may not acknowledge or understand it fully.
Say what you're gonna say
-They'll never own it, so give it all to them
-Keep your eyes on the holiday
The mention of a holiday may symbolize a break or escape, and though it's recognized as a falsehood, it's the only way the speaker knows how to navigate life.
Yeah, it's a lie but it's all you know how to play
-And it'll always run so far away
-But you're never giving up the chase
Despite challenges, the pursuit (chase) continues without giving up, indicating resilience and determination.
There's a noise, I hear them talk
Reference to noise and talk without substance or meaning, highlighting a lack of clarity or purpose.
Without a meaning, without a choice
-Shout out your own name
Reiteration of the importance of self-expression, emphasizing that others may not take ownership of it, so it should be given freely.
Say what you're gonna say
-They'll never own it, so give it all to them (Always thought that you could come and save us)
-Always thought that you could come and save us
Continuation of the belief that someone could save the speaker, emphasizing a persistent hope or longing for salvation.
I always thought that you could come and save us
-I always thought that you could come and save us
-I always thought that you could come and save us
-(I always thought that you could come and save us) Keep your eyes on the holiday
Repetition of the idea to keep focus during a holiday, acknowledging the deceptive nature of a lie that is the only way the speaker knows how to navigate life, but the chase continues.
Yeah it's a lie but it's all you know how to play (I always thought that you could come and save us)
-And it'll always run so far away (I always thought that you could come and save us)
-But you're never giving up the chase (I always thought that you could come and save us)
-(I always thought that you could come and save us) Keep your eyes on the holiday
Further repetition of the theme: despite recognizing the falsehood, the speaker persists in the chase, not giving up hope of being saved.
Yeah it's a lie but it's all you know how to play (I always thought that you could come and save us)
-And it'll always run so far away (I always thought that you could come and save us)
-But you're never giving up the chase (I always thought that you could come and save us)
