Running Away
Chasing Freedom: Unraveling the Emotions of 'Running Away' by Guy Kopelman
Lyrics
Running away to be alone
Expressing a desire to be alone
To question all i thought i'd known
Seeking to question one's existing beliefs
Running away to be alone
Reiterating the wish to find solitude
Away from time and from my phone
Escaping from the constraints of time and technology
Running away to be free
Running away in search of freedom
Think about who i wanna be
Reflecting on one's identity and aspirations
Running away to be free
Emphasizing the pursuit of freedom
From thoughts that won't stop haunting me
Trying to escape persistent and troubling thoughts
I'm running away
Reaffirming the act of running away
Like people when the rain hits the ground
Comparing the act of running away to people seeking shelter from rain
Running away
Continuing the metaphor with the sun rising above clouds
Like the sun when rising up above a cloud
Stating the intention to run away
Running away
Expressing reluctance to face challenges alone
I don't wanna do this on my own
Running away to find a sense of belonging
I'm running away to feel like home
Seeking the feeling of being at home through escape
Cause when you were here
Reflecting on positive emotions when the person was present
You made me feel so alive
Describing the vivacity experienced in their presence
With every touch i could thrive
Highlighting the positive impact of physical contact
And when you were here
Recalling joyful moments shared with the person
We could laugh and talk for days
Emphasizing the ease of communication and connection
We just had our own ways
Acknowledging unique ways of relating to each other
But when you walked away
Expressing a sense of loss when the person departed
I had no more to say but goodbye
Admitting a lack of words except for bidding farewell
With you i'll reach the sky
Associating reaching the sky with being together
Running away to feel close
Running away to feel emotionally close to someone
Find a place to hang my hopes
Searching for a place to invest hope and emotions
Running away to feel close
Repeating the desire to feel close to loved ones
To the people that i love the most
Connecting the escape with a longing for loved ones
I'm running away
Affirming the ongoing act of running away
Like time when you're enjoying yourself the most
Comparing running away to the fleeting nature of enjoyable moments
Running away
Extending the comparison to the waves along the coast
Like the waves when you're driving by the coast
Reiterating the intention to run away
Running away
Expressing a reluctance to face challenges alone
I don't wanna do this on my own
Running away to find a sense of belonging
I'm running away to feel like home
Seeking the feeling of being at home through escape
Cause when you were here
Reflecting on positive emotions when the person was present
You made me feel so alive
Describing the vivacity experienced in their presence
With every touch i could thrive
Highlighting the positive impact of physical contact
And when you were here
Recalling joyful moments shared with the person
We could laugh and talk for days
Emphasizing the ease of communication and connection
We just had our own ways
Acknowledging unique ways of relating to each other
But when you walked away
Expressing a sense of loss when the person departed
I had no more to say but goodbye
Admitting a lack of words except for bidding farewell
With you i'll reach the sky
Associating reaching the sky with being together
