Lyrics

And I was falling out in space

Feeling adrift or lost in a vast, empty space

To find you

Searching for someone

But you were keeping up the pace

That person was moving swiftly

So I'd lose

Resulting in the speaker losing the pursuit


You're making me run

Expressing frustration at being pushed to chase, feeling exhausted and tired of playing games (repetition emphasizes the feeling of being continuously forced to run after someone who keeps evading)

You're making me run

-

Make me go round and round

-

So done with cat and mouse

-

You're making me run

-

You're making me run

-

Yeah, I'm calling out

-

But it's silent sound

-

You're making me run

-

You're making me run

-

Make me go round and round

-

So done with cat and mouse

-

You're making me run

-

You're making me run

-

Yeah, I'm calling out

-

But it's silent sound

-

I'm doing laps around myself at this rate

Metaphorically circling in repetitive patterns, feeling at risk of failure

It feels like I could trip and make my own fate

Sensing vulnerability, fearing potential misfortune due to the ongoing pursuit

I'm glad to see you doing well in first place

Observing the person being chased doing well

Slow and steady wins but not in this race

Contrasting the usual adage of steady progress not applying to this situation


Doing laps around myself (round and round)

Reiterating the circular nature of the chase

Oh well

Expressing frustration at being pushed to chase, feeling exhausted and tired of playing games (repetition emphasizes the feeling of being continuously forced to run after someone who keeps evading)

Come around and cast your spell (your spell)

Desiring the pursued individual to influence or captivate

I fell

Expressing frustration at being pushed to chase, feeling exhausted and tired of playing games (repetition emphasizes the feeling of being continuously forced to run after someone who keeps evading)

At least I have good damn story (page by page)

Accepting the experience as a valuable tale despite the struggle

To tell

Expressing frustration at being pushed to chase, feeling exhausted and tired of playing games (repetition emphasizes the feeling of being continuously forced to run after someone who keeps evading)

But even when I live that glory, was it worth, your hell

Questioning if the pursuit was worth the challenges faced


And I was falling out in space (in space)

Reiteration of feeling lost in pursuit while the pursued moves swiftly

To find you (to find you)

-

But you were keeping up the pace (the pace)

-

So I'd lose (so I'd lose)

-

You're making me run

Continued frustration and exhaustion from the chase, a sense of futile efforts and unanswered calls

You're making me run

-

Make me go round and round

-

So done with cat and mouse

-

You're making me run

-

You're making me run

-

Yeah, I'm calling out

-

But it's silent sound

-

You're making me run

-

You're making me run

-

Make me go round and round

-

So done with cat and mouse

-

You're making me run

-

You're making me run

-

Yeah, I'm calling out

-

But it's silent sound

-

You're making me run

-

You're making me run

-

Make me go round and round

-

So done with cat and mouse

-

You're making me run

-

You're making me run

-

Yeah, I'm calling out

-

But it's silent sound

-

Yeah, yeah

Expressing acknowledgment while feeling slow in the chase

And I'm running so slow

Reinforcing the feeling of running but not making significant progress


Yeah, yeah

Additional expressions of frustration and exhaustion

Yeah, yeah
