Scaredy Cat
Haunted Solitude: Battling Shadows in the Night
Lyrics
I get scared when i'm alone
The singer feels afraid when they are by themselves.
It's all inside my head
They acknowledge that their fear exists within their thoughts.
But i can't shake it off
Despite wanting to, they struggle to overcome or dismiss this fear.
Just hide i can't defend
The only way they know to deal with it is to hide since they feel unable to protect themselves.
I'm not good at running fast
They feel physically inadequate when trying to escape from a threat.
The wind chill slows me down
External conditions (like the wind chill) make it even harder for them to escape.
They totally can handle that
They believe others are better equipped to handle such situations.
They'd find me
They fear being found by a threatening presence.
And catch me
They fear being caught by the threatening presence.
And take me out of town
They fear being taken away from their safe environment.
I hear the footsteps
They hear approaching footsteps, indicating someone is coming for them.
and see the tire tracks they left for me
They see evidence (tire tracks) left behind by the threatening presence, urging them to follow.
to follow
They perceive this as a setup or a trick.
it's a trap
They feel manipulated and used by others.
and i'm a pawn inside their plan
They realize they are being used as part of a larger plan or scheme.
I can't stay home forever
They acknowledge they can't remain in their safe space indefinitely.
I'm running out of breath
They feel physically exhausted or breathless from the stress and fear.
These thoughts have got to sever
They wish to break free from these frightening thoughts.
Running down the streets
They are running through the streets trying to escape.
A van keeps passing by
A van repeatedly passes by, intensifying their fear of abduction.
His objective abducting
They question if anyone will intervene to stop this potential crime.
Will no one stop his crime?
They feel overwhelmed by their irrational fear.
I can't take it anymore
They express being unable to handle the fear any longer.
This irrationality
They recognize their fear as irrational but feel unable to control it.
Is consuming me
The fear is becoming all-encompassing, taking control of their thoughts and actions.
And taking over everything
They question if they are truly alone or if someone is observing them.
Am i alone?
They make a plea, promising not to scream, but admit they are lying.
Or is somebody listening to me
They wonder if someone is listening to their plea for help.
I promise i won't scream
They make a false promise out of desperation.
I'm lying let me be
They admit their intention to scream if they feel threatened.
I can't stay home forever
They reiterate their inability to stay safe at home.
I'm running out of breath
They feel physically exhausted or breathless due to fear.
These thoughts have got to sever
They desperately want these fearful thoughts to stop.
And i'd leave it all behind
They would abandon everything to escape if they had the energy.
If i could get the energy
They wish to regain control of their thoughts and emotions.
To return my mind
They express the desire to leave behind everything causing fear.
I can't stay home forever
They reiterate their inability to stay safe at home.
I'm running out of breath
They feel physically exhausted or breathless due to fear.
These thoughts have got to sever
They desperately want these fearful thoughts to stop.
And i'd leave it all behind
They would abandon everything to escape if they had the energy.
If i could get the energy
They wish to regain control of their thoughts and emotions.
To return my mind
They desire the strength to reclaim their mental well-being.
