Away From You
Escaping Love's Haunting Grip
Lyrics
I don't wanna sleep at night
I want to avoid sleeping during the night.
I don't know who I am
I am uncertain about my identity.
Somebody please help me find
Seeking assistance to discover myself.
Myself, I mean god damn
Expressing frustration or disbelief about the difficulty of self-discovery.
I don't know how you died
Uncertain about the cause of your death.
But you're not in my head anymore
No longer haunted or influenced by your presence in my thoughts.
It felt like paradise
Recalling a time that felt like perfection.
When your body hit the floor
Reflecting on a moment of distress or tragedy when you fell.
And I'll just try to run
Expressing a desire to escape.
Away from you
Wanting to distance oneself from you.
And I hope you will too
Encouraging or hoping that you will also move on.
You know that it's true
Acknowledging the truth of the situation.
I got to get away from you
Strong determination to separate from you.
I got to get away from you
Reiteration of the strong need to distance oneself.
I'm burning bridges and I'm
Metaphorically damaging relationships and attempting to heal emotional wounds.
I'm sewing stitches in my heart
Continuing the metaphor of repairing emotional pain.
You know how much I loved you
Acknowledging the depth of past love.
But you knew you didn't from the start
Recognizing that your love was not reciprocated from the beginning.
I'm killing memories and
Actively trying to erase memories associated with you.
I'm killing you inside my head
Expressing a desire to eliminate your presence from one's thoughts.
You'd probably mourn my death but
Suggesting that your death would bring relief.
I'd be so glad if you were dead
Highlighting a conflicted and dark perspective on your existence.
And I'll just try to run
Reiteration of the desire to escape from you.
Away from you
Continuing the theme of attempting to distance oneself.
And I hope you will too
Encouraging the hope that you will also move away.
You know that it's true
Affirming the truth of the need to separate.
I got to get away from you
Emphasizing the urgency of getting away from you.
I got to get away from you
Reiteration of the strong need to distance oneself.
