Runaway
Runaway Reflections: A Soul's Struggle for Identity
Lyrics
Runaway
Expresses the desire to escape or flee
Sitting on the corner where the pretty ladies drink their tea
Observing from a distance where elegant women gather to socialize
No one pays attention anymore, to me
Feeling unnoticed or ignored by others
They placed me on a shelf and they’ll take me for some self helping remedy
Being shelved or disregarded, expected to be used as a remedy
Maybe they’ll know why I am beat
Hopeful that others may understand the reason for feeling defeated
I never want to be, I never want to see, I never wanted to chain myself
Rejecting the idea of being restricted or confined
Your Runaway
Referred to as someone's runaway, indicating a lack of control or autonomy
Sitting on the corner where the handsome gentlemen all arrive
Observing from a distance where sophisticated men gather
I wonder why I am still alive
Questioning the purpose or reason for existence
Is it to become light and help all the pretty people in the night
Questioning if the purpose is to provide support to others during difficult times
Have you seen my ugly gruesome worthless sight
Expressing self-doubt and feelings of worthlessness
I never want to be, I never want to see, I never wanted to chain myself
Rejecting the notion of being constrained or limited
Your Runaway
Still labeled as someone's runaway, lacking freedom or control
You must build it before they’ll come
Stating the need to create or establish something before it attracts attention
You must start it before it gets done
Emphasizing the importance of starting a task before it can be completed
I can’t build it cause they wont come
Feeling unable to create or build because of a lack of interest or support
I can’t start it, it never gets done
Feeling unable to initiate tasks due to a perceived inability to finish them
I’m sick of being everybody else's runaway
Expressing frustration at being perceived as someone who flees from responsibility
No one asks me anymore if I’m okay
Feeling neglected by others, lacking concern for one's well-being
I’m sick of being everybody else's runaway
Reiterating frustration at being considered an escapee by others
No one asks me anymore if I’m okay
Expressing neglect in terms of others' lack of concern for personal welfare
I never want to be, I never want to see, I never wanted to chain myself
Rejecting the idea of being confined or restrained
