Lyrics
Run, running away
Feeling the need to escape or distance oneself.
To the place, you remember
Recollecting a specific place from the past.
Refuse, to give up
Choosing not to give in or yield.
Refuse, to surrender
Resisting the act of surrendering or giving up.
Why is it oh so hard?
Expressing the difficulty in understanding a situation.
To see what we once had
Reflecting on the challenge of recognizing past experiences.
It won't go far
Suggesting that the past is not easily forgotten.
Sometimes in the light it's so hard
Highlighting the difficulty of perception in the light.
To see the looming darkness
Referring to the challenge of acknowledging impending negativity.
And to you, it might seem
Addressing a perception that might be seen as lacking empathy.
My approach was heartless
Exploring the perception of an unemotional approach.
Why is it oh so hard?
Reiterating the difficulty in recognizing past experiences.
To see what we once had
Revisiting the challenge of understanding past moments.
It won't go far
Re-emphasizing that the past is not easily forgotten.
In all the scenes in all your dreams
Referring to the persistent nature of memories and dreams.
It always seems the grass is green
Noting a recurring theme of idealizing distant situations.
Why is it oh so hard?
Reiterating the difficulty in recognizing past experiences.
To see what we once had
Emphasizing the lasting impact of past moments.
It won't go far
Re-stating that the past is not easily forgotten.
In all the scenes in all your dreams
Revisiting the persistent nature of memories and dreams.
It always seems the grass is greener on the other side
Expressing the common belief that distant situations appear better.
And it always seems
Reinforcing the perception that distant situations seem preferable.
