Nowhere to Run
Love's Dilemma: Confronting Heartbreak with The Honey Sweets
Lyrics
Nowhere to run to, baby, nowhere to hide
Feeling trapped, unable to escape or find refuge
Got nowhere to run to, baby, nowhere to hide.
Reiterating the feeling of being stuck and unable to escape
It's not love, I'm a running from,
Not avoiding love but trying to avoid the pain associated with it
It's the heartbreak I know will come.
Fearing the inevitable emotional pain of a broken heart
'Cause I know you're no good for me, but you've become a part of me.
Realizing the relationship is toxic but unable to detach
Ev'rywhere I go, your face I see, ev'ry step I take, you take with me yeah
Constant reminders of the person everywhere, feeling inseparable
Nowhere to run to, baby, nowhere to hide
Reiterating the theme of feeling trapped and unable to find a safe place
Got nowhere to run to, baby, nowhere to hide.
Continuing the sentiment of being unable to escape
I know you're not good for me, but free of you I'll never be, no.
Acknowledging the toxicity but unable to break free from it
Each night as I sleep, into my heart you creep.
Metaphorically, the person haunts thoughts even in dreams
I wake up feelin' sorry I met you, hoping soon that I'll forget you.
Regretting the encounter and hoping to forget the person
When I look in the mirror to comb my hair
Seeing the person's influence even in mundane activities
I see your face just a smiling there.
Continued presence of the person in self-reflection
Nowhere to run, nowhere to hide from you baby,
Reiterating the impossibility of escaping the person's influence
Got nowhere to run to, baby, nowhere to hide.
Emphasizing the feeling of being unable to hide or run away
I know you're no good for me, but you've become a part of me,
Internal conflict between knowing the relationship is bad but feeling bound to it
How can I fight a lover, that shouldn't be, when it's so deep,
Struggling to resist a deep emotional connection
So deep, deep inside of me
Highlighting the depth of emotional entanglement
My love reaches so high I can't get over it
Love is overwhelming and seems insurmountable
It's so wide I can't get around it, no
Love is all-encompassing and impossible to avoid
Nowhere to run, nowhere to hide from you baby
Reiterating the inability to escape the person's influence
Just can't get away from you baby, no matter how I try to
Despite efforts, unable to break away from the person's hold
I know you're no good for me, but free of you I'll never be,
Repeated acknowledgment of the toxic nature of the relationship but feeling unable to leave
Nowhere to run to baby, nowhere to hide, got nowhere to run to baby.
Final reinforcement of feeling trapped and unable to escape
