I Should Run
Navigating the Abyss of Love: 'I Should Run' by Viktoria Tolstoy
Lyrics
I´m on a ship that´that’s slowly sinking
I feel like I'm on a sinking ship, facing a difficult situation.
I should get off but my feet are linking
Despite the sinking ship, I find it challenging to leave or escape.
The water will come and release my soul
Anticipation of impending challenges, represented by water, affecting the soul.
Is this the end or a new beginning
Uncertainty about whether the current situation is the end or a chance for a new beginning.
I should fight back but the force is winning
Feeling powerless in resisting a force that seems to be overcoming me.
I must surrender and just let go
Acceptance and surrender to the situation, letting go of resistance.
Bridge
(Bridge - no specific lyrics to interpret)
I´ll float away, loose all control
Describing a state of losing control and drifting away.
I won´t look back I´ll go with the flow
Deciding not to dwell on the past, going with the current of life.
Where I am going, I just don´t know
Expressing uncertainty about the destination or future.
I should run run run
Repeated emphasis on the idea that the singer should run, suggesting a strong urge to escape or avoid something.
I should run run run
-I should run run run
-I really should run..
-All about you is intoxicating
Feeling captivated or overwhelmed by someone or something.
I should be cool and keep you waiting
Recognizing the need to be composed and make someone wait.
The spirit is willing but the flesh is weak
Acknowledging a conflict between desires (spirit) and physical limitations (flesh).
A feeling so strong yet bittersweet
Experiencing a powerful and bittersweet emotion.
One look at you and my heart skip a beat
Intense reaction to someone, causing the heart to skip a beat.
What can I say, you´ve swept me off my feet
Expressing being swept off one's feet by the person or situation.
I should run run run
Reiteration of the strong urge to run, underlining the internal conflict or turmoil.
I should run run run
-I should run run run
-I really should run..
