Lyrics
The earth is sliding beneath our feet
The world is changing rapidly beneath us.
You look at me but our eyes won't meet
Despite looking at each other, there is a lack of connection in our gaze.
They're holding me down
External forces or emotions are restraining me.
Please run for me
Asking for assistance, pleading for someone to run on my behalf.
Help please
An urgent plea for help.
Run for me
An emphasis on the request for someone to run on behalf of the speaker.
I'd rather die
Expressing a strong preference for death over the current situation or emotional state.
I'd rather die
-I'd rather die
-You laugh at me in your sundress
-The perfect cover for the tear obsessed
Mocking laughter directed at the speaker, possibly in a seemingly innocent setting.
You're waking me up
Someone or something is disturbing the speaker's peace and waking them up.
Please run for me
Reiteration of the plea for someone to run on behalf of the speaker.
Help please
A desperate call for help.
Run for me
Repeated emphasis on the plea for someone to run for the speaker.
I'd rather die
Continued strong expression of a preference for death as an escape.
I'd rather die
-I'd rather die
-Tension's building beneath our feet
-You look at me but our eyes won't meet
-They're holding me down
-Please run for me
-Help please
-Run for me
-I'd rather die
-I'd rather die
-I'd rather die
-I'd rather die
-I'd rather die
-I'd rather die
-I'd rather die
-I'd rather die
Reiteration of the preference for death as a resolute statement.
