Run
Chasing Light: A Poetic Journey Through Love and Farewell
Lyrics
I'll sing it one last time for you
The singer will perform the song one final time.
Then we really have to go
After the performance, they must depart.
You've been the only thing that's right
The person addressed has been a source of positivity and correctness in the singer's life.
In all I've done
Despite all the singer's actions, this person has been the sole positive aspect.
And I can barely look at you
The singer finds it challenging to face the addressed person.
But every single time I do
Despite the difficulty, the singer acknowledges a sense of assurance whenever they look at this person.
I know we'll make it anywhere
Confidence in the ability to thrive in any place away from their current situation.
Away from here
Expresses the desire to escape from the current location.
Light up, light up
Encouragement to shine or stand out.
As if you have a choice
Suggests the illusion of choice in difficult circumstances.
Even if you cannot hear my voice
Even if the person cannot physically hear, the singer pledges support.
I'll be right beside you, dear
The singer promises to remain by the person's side.
Louder, louder
Intensity increases, urging action or expression.
And we'll run for our lives
Escaping while running for survival.
I can hardly speak I understand
Difficulty in articulating due to deep understanding.
Why you can't raise your voice to say
Understanding the reason behind the person's inability to speak up.
To think I might not see those eyes
The potential of not seeing the person's eyes is emotionally challenging.
It makes it so hard not to cry
The emotional impact almost leads to tears.
And as we say our long goodbyes
During farewells, the emotions become overwhelming.
I nearly do
The singer nearly cries due to the emotional weight.
Light up, light up
Reiterating the encouragement to shine or stand out.
As if you have a choice
Again, hinting at the illusion of choice in difficult situations.
Even if you cannot hear my voice
Promising support despite the inability to physically communicate.
I'll be right beside you, dear
Reaffirmation of staying by the person's side.
Louder, louder
Increasing the urgency for action or expression.
And we'll run for our lives
Running away together for survival.
I can hardly speak I understand
Difficulty in articulating due to deep understanding.
Why you can't raise your voice to say
Understanding the reason behind the person's inability to speak up.
Slower, slower
Encouragement to slow down, but urgency prevents it.
We don't have time for that
There's no time for a slower pace.
All I want's to find an easier way
Desire to find an easier solution to escape mental distress.
To get out of our little heads
Escaping from overthinking or being stuck in their minds.
Have heart my dear
Encouragement to remain brave despite fear.
We're bound to be afraid
Fear is expected but temporary.
Even if it's just for a few days
Even if the fear is short-lived, it's acknowledged.
Making up for all this mess
Attempting to fix or make amends for the chaos.
Light up, light up
Reiteration of the encouragement to shine or stand out.
As if you have a choice
Highlighting the illusion of choice in difficult circumstances.
Even if you cannot hear my voice
Reaffirmation of support despite the inability to physically communicate.
I'll be right beside you, dear
A pledge to remain beside the addressed person.
