Running Backwards
Chasing Shadows: Unraveling the Emotional Maze of 'Running Backwards'
Lyrics
I've been busy running backwards, backwards
Feeling caught in a cycle, regressing
Always fallin' ten feet behind
Consistently lagging or falling behind
I try and hide it under laughter, only after
Trying to cover up pain with laughter after it happens
Always nearly losin' my mind
Constantly on the verge of losing control mentally
And you could say that if I only would just move on
Suggesting that moving forward might alleviate the difficulty
Things would get easier
Belief that progress would bring ease
But I've been busy runnin' backwards, backwards
Continuously stuck in the cycle of regressing mentally
Always nearly losin' my mind
Consistently on the brink of losing control mentally
It's the part when you left I hate the most
The most challenging aspect of the departure
If only you could just explain why you had to go
Desire for an explanation regarding the departure
And maybe it was all your lies added up
Suspecting accumulated lies might have caused the departure
Became too much for me to count
Difficulty in quantifying the lies or deceit
It's the part when you left I hate the most
The most difficult part of the departure
Well I've been tryna do it sober, sober
Attempting to handle the situation without any substance use
But everything is boring as hell
Life feels uninteresting and dull without intoxication
And I don't even have the patience, to take this
Lack of patience to adapt to a new perspective
New clarity and break out my shell
Struggling to embrace a new understanding and break free from isolation
And now the years are adding up since you left for good
Time has passed since the departure, yet stuck in the same place
But here I stay
Despite time passing, still anchored to the same situation
But still I keep on runnin' backwards, backwards
Continuing to regress despite feeling time slipping away
And I can feel the time, ya it's slippin' away
Sense of time slipping away while stuck in regression
It's the part when you left I hate the most
Reiterating the challenge of coping with the departure
If only you could just explain why you had to go
Yearning for an explanation regarding the departure
And maybe it was all your lies added up
Speculating that accumulated falsehoods led to the departure
Became too much for me to count
Difficulty in quantifying the extent of lies or deceit
It's the part when you left I hate the most
Reemphasizing the most difficult aspect of the departure
It's the part when you left I hate the most
Repeatedly highlighting the most challenging part of the departure
If only you could just explain why you had to go
Desire for an explanation regarding the departure
And maybe it was all your lies added up
Suspecting accumulated lies might have caused the departure
Became too much for me to count
Difficulty in quantifying the lies or deceit
It's the part when you left I hate the most
Reiterating the most challenging aspect of the departure
