Lyrics
Children behave
Children are expected to behave.
That's what they say when we're together
People say this when the speaker and someone else are together.
And Watch how you play
Observing how the other person plays.
They don't understand, And so we're
Others don't comprehend the relationship, and as a result, they are
Running just as fast as we can
Running away swiftly.
Holding onto one another's hand
Holding each other's hand while running.
Running just as fast as we can
Continuing to run swiftly together.
Holding onto one another's hand
Still holding onto each other's hand.
And I think we're alone now
Expressing a belief that they are alone now.
There doesn't seem to be anyone around
Perceiving no one else present in the vicinity.
I think we're alone now
Reiterating the sense of solitude.
The beating of your heart is the only sound
The only audible sound is the heartbeat.
Look at the way
Examining the manner in which they hide their actions.
We gotta hide what we’re doin'
The necessity to conceal their activities.
'Cause what would they say
Anticipating negative judgment if others discover their secret.
If they ever knew, and so we're
Resulting in running away hastily.
Running just as fast as we can
Continuing to run, escaping potential judgment.
Holding onto one another's hand
Maintaining physical connection during the escape.
Running just as fast as we can
Persisting in rapid flight together.
Holding onto one another's hand
Still tightly holding each other's hand.
And I think we're alone now
Reiterating the belief that they are alone.
There doesn't seem to be anyone around
No external presence is perceived.
I think we're alone now
Emphasizing the continued sense of solitude.
The beating of your heart is the only sound
Highlighting the prominence of the other person's heartbeat as the only audible sound.
And I think we're alone now
Repeating the conviction of being alone.
There doesn't seem to be anyone around
No apparent presence of others is detected.
I think we're alone now
Reaffirming the sense of solitude.
The beating of your heart is the only sound
Emphasizing the exclusive sound of the other person's heartbeat.
