Should Be Running
Chasing Shadows of Pride: Unveiling the Meaning Behind 'Should Be Running'
Lyrics
It feels avoidant
Feeling a tendency to avoid something
Ignore the meaning
Choosing to disregard the significance or importance
If after dreaming
Even after dreaming or imagining
I stay here
Deciding to remain in the current situation or place
I should be running
Expressing the awareness that one should be actively moving or running
Away from something
Running away from a particular circumstance or issue
But I'm here
Despite the awareness and need to run, choosing to stay
I'm here
Reiteration of the decision to stay in the current situation
All my life
Throughout one's entire life
It makes no difference
Emphasizing that the choice to stay has no impact or significance
Stay here
Continuing to remain in the current place or circumstance
For my pride
Staying for the sake of personal pride or ego
No competition
No active competition or challenge
Is it forever?
Raising a question about the duration of the current situation
You take another
Allowing someone else to take another action or opportunity
Could never change it
Expressing a belief that the situation cannot be altered
While I'm here
Remaining in the current situation while contemplating change
Should be a runner
Acknowledging the awareness that one should be actively running
Should be an angel
Acknowledging the awareness that one should be like an angel (pure or virtuous)
But I'm here
Choosing to stay despite the awareness of what one should be
For you
Staying for someone else
I'm here
Reiteration of the decision to stay for a significant period
All my life
Throughout one's entire life
It makes no difference
Reiterating that the choice to stay has no impact or significance
Stay here
Continuing to remain in the current place or circumstance
For my pride
Staying for the sake of personal pride or ego
No competition
No active competition or challenge
