Runaway
Breaking Chains: A Heartfelt Journey Through Pain and Perseverance
Lyrics
Look
Expressing attention or command to focus.
Heartbroken, up all night I’m crying again
Feeling heartbroken and crying throughout the night.
I feel constant pain not just like now and then
Experiencing constant pain, not just occasionally.
I wanna write my story I can’t even find a pen
Expressing the desire to share one's story but facing obstacles.
It must be in my jacket pocket from when I was ten
Reflecting on childhood and finding a symbolic pen in a jacket pocket.
Don't you find it funny, how we were treated when we were kids will ultimately define who we are as men
Highlighting the impact of childhood experiences on shaping one's identity.
No ones there for you, even people you thought were family, when I needed you most where d’you go my friend
Expressing disappointment in friends or family not being there in times of need.
Take my heart, mind, soul, break it to pieces
Offering one's heart, mind, and soul to someone, risking emotional pain.
I wanna stand up for myself but my brain it freezes
Struggling to assert oneself due to mental blocks or fear.
Give it time kid, things change just like the seasons
Encouraging patience, emphasizing that circumstances change over time.
I’ve been living in hell man just kill my demons
Expressing a challenging life filled with internal struggles and demons.
I don’t like it here mum I just wanna leave
Expressing a desire to escape from the current situation.
I can’t handle the stress mum I can barely breathe
Conveying overwhelming stress and difficulty breathing.
I ain’t going to school mum, these kids keep picking on me
Resisting going to school due to bullying.
Haven’t told no one but can’t they see
Questioning why others can't see the distress despite not openly discussing it.
Listen here my angel, you don’t have to take it
A mother advising her child not to endure mistreatment.
Count to ten, close your eyes, come on just be patient
Encouraging the child to remain patient and composed in challenging situations.
People hate you, shake you, til' they break you
Highlighting the negativity and challenges people may impose on others.
But son how strong you stand will eventually make you
Emphasizing that one's strength in adversity shapes their character.
They say you look different, talk different and you’re kinda weird
Addressing societal judgment and prejudice based on differences.
But you’re my beautiful baby boy and that’s how it is
Affirming unconditional love for the child despite societal judgments.
You know I'd take away all the pain that you’ve had to go through
A mother expressing a wish to alleviate her child's pain.
Don’t worry son hang in there just persevere
Encouraging the child to persevere and endure difficulties.
One year later, nothing’s changed it hurts the same
Expressing that the pain remains unchanged after a year.
Maybe it’s my fault mum, maybe it’s me to blame
Suggesting self-blame for the ongoing pain.
Someone said that sticks and stones may break your bones but words can never hurt you
Questioning the validity of the saying that words can't hurt.
You sure? I think that quotes insane
Expressing skepticism about the quoted idea and acknowledging personal pain.
I mean I can’t complain, got a loving family they ask me every day
Acknowledging a loving family but hinting at internal struggles.
How was school son? It was ok
Providing a superficial response to inquiries about school.
Have you ever been sat on your school bus with all your mates yet it feels like you’re walking home in the pouring rain
Describing a feeling of isolation despite being in the company of friends.
Name a remedy, something giving me energy
Seeking a remedy or source of energy to overcome exhaustion.
I’ve been feeling so tired, I just wanna be a better me
Expressing a desire for self-improvement and becoming a better person.
My times runnin' out, tearing up and breaking down
Conveying a sense of urgency, with time running out and emotional breakdown.
I think they’ve gone too far man, I can’t turn this around
Feeling that the situation has gone too far and is irreparable.
I hear an ambulance, sirens changing the ambience
Noticing external signals, like ambulance sirens, affecting the emotional atmosphere.
Imagine what’s gonna happen if I go and I’m absent
Contemplating the potential consequences of leaving or being absent.
I won’t let this world win not today, so tomorrow I’m going school I promise I’m taking action but
Committing to resisting the challenges and going to school the next day.
I wanna runaway bro I wanna runaway
Expressing a strong desire to escape or run away from the current situation.
I can’t take anymore I wanna runaway
Reiterating the inability to endure any more and the wish to run away.
I wanna run away, I wanna runaway
Expressing a repeated desire to run away from the difficulties.
I can’t do this no more, I wanna runaway
Stating the inability to continue and the strong desire to run away.
I wanna runaway away mum I wanna runaway

I can’t stay in this place

I wanna runaway
Reiterating the desire to run
