Runaway
Heartbreak Chronicles: Runaway from Love with Millington
Lyrics
Did you write down
Questioning if the person wrote down something important.
All the things that you plan to forget
Asking about plans or memories intended to be forgotten.
Just as soon as you leave town?
Wondering if departure triggers forgetfulness.
Or the people and places
Referring to significant people and places.
You’ll never replace it
Highlighting the irreplaceable nature of certain aspects.
And I don’t know if I’m strong enough
Expressing uncertainty about personal strength.
To keep you standing still
Questioning the ability to keep someone in place emotionally.
Or to form the words to say goodbye
Struggling to articulate a farewell.
But you promised that you will
Reminding the person of a promise to say goodbye.
You promised
Reiterating the promise made.
Did you mean it
Inquiring about the sincerity of a previous statement.
When you said this means nothing
Questioning the significance of the town or relationship.
This town or this something between us?
Anticipating the person forgetting shared experiences.
You’ll forget all about how we talked it all out
Reflecting on the difficulty of accepting the current situation.
And now I can’t stand how it feels to hear
Expressing discomfort hearing about moving on.
When you say you’d rather go
Noting the preference to leave rather than confront issues.
Yeah I tried my best to get through to you
Acknowledging efforts to communicate without success.
But I guess you’ll never know
Expressing the impossibility of understanding.
You’ll never know
Reiterating the lack of understanding.
Runaway
Issuing a directive to escape.
Girl with a heartbreak
Describing the person as a runaway with a broken heart.
Honestly
Emphasizing honesty in communication.
Make sure they know that you’re so down
Encouraging the person to convey their emotional state.
Are you so down?
Asking if the person is genuinely feeling low.
Runaway
Repeating the directive to run away.
Girl with a homesick heart
Referring to the person as having a homesick heart.
You say
Indicating a statement about being emotionally low.
“I hope that you know that I’m so down”
Confirming the emotional state of being down.
Are you so down?
Reiterating the question about feeling down.
