Chasing Me Down
Chasing Shadows: A Journey of Self-Discovery Through Every Neon City
Lyrics
Don't get much rain here
There's not much rainfall in this place
But the wind cuts just as deep
The wind here has a cutting, piercing effect despite the lack of rain
Days feel so short
The days seem brief or fleeting
And time still wears on me
Time continues to have an impact on the singer
Maybe I'm just walking the line
The singer might be treading a fine line, uncertain
Running from what I left behind
Escaping or avoiding something from the past
Chasing me down
The past or unresolved issues keep haunting the singer
Every two lane blacktop road
Every rural road, every urban area shines brightly, but there's an emptiness
Every city wrapped in a neon glow
People's emotions are muted or hidden
Who's heart beats without a sound
The singer feels a lack of emotional resonance or connection
Chasing me down
The past or unresolved issues continue to follow the singer
When the sun burns the sky to red
During challenging times, the singer vows to face the future head-on
I'mma rise up to what lies ahead
Confronting what's to come despite being in an unremarkable place
In another nowhere town
The past continues to haunt or linger
Chasing me down
Reiteration of past troubles persisting
Chasing me down
-So many faces
Many people around, but none stand out
But they all look the same
Despite familiarity, there's a lack of recognition or connection
No one's a stranger
Potentially repeating the pattern of avoiding something from the past
But no one remembers my name
Similar to line 6, trying to escape past issues
Maybe I'm just walking the line
Continuing the pattern of avoiding past experiences
Running from what I left behind
Similar to line 11, the past keeps catching up
Chasing me down
Repeated instances of being pursued by the past or unresolved issues
Every two lane blacktop road
-Every city wrapped in a neon glow
-Who's heart beats without a sound
-Chasing me down
-When the sun burns the sky to red
-I'mma rise up to what lies ahead
-In another nowhere town
-Chasing me down
-To find out who I turn out to be
Seeking self-discovery or understanding after the chase ends
When I'm done chasing me
When the internal struggle is resolved
Chasing me
Continued pursuit by past issues or unresolved matters
Every two lane blacktop road
Repetition of the cycle of being pursued by the past and searching for resolution
Every city wrapped in a neon glow
-Who's heart beats without a sound
-Chasing me down
-When the sun burns the sky to red
-I'mma rise up to what lies ahead
-In another nowhere town
-Chasing me down
-Every two lane blacktop road
-Every city wrapped in a neon glow
-Who's heart beats without a sound
-Chasing me down
-When the sun burns the sky to red
-I'mma rise up to what lies ahead
-In another nowhere town
-Chasing me down yeah
-Chasing me down yeah
-Oh chasing me down
-Chasing me down
Final reinforcement of being pursued or haunted by unresolved issues
