I remember days like you'd remember years.
How'd things get so hard?
Try and get out while you still can.
Turn your back and start running.
The soldiers with the green vests and the gold caps pulling your strings.
They're pulling your strings and telling you things to keep you from running away.
I remember when...
Try to understand.
How'd things get so hard?
Look out.
Clear the way.
He's lost his mind again.
Look out.
Clear the way.
He's off the train again.
They're pulling your strings and telling you things.
Run away.

Little Feat
Overall about difficult moments of disappointment and vulnerability. Having hope and longing, while remaining optimistic for the future. Encourages the belief that with each new morning there is a chance for things to improve. The chorus offers a glimmer of optimism and a chance at a resolution and redemption in the future. Captures the rollercoaster of emotions of feeling lost while loving someone who is not there for you, feeling let down and abandoned while waiting for a lover. Lost with no direction, "Now I'm up in the air with the rain in my hair, Nowhere to go, I can go anywhere" The bridge shows signs of longing and a plea for companionship. The Lyrics express a desire for authentic connection and the importance of Loving someone just as they are. "Just in passing, I'm not asking. That you be anyone but you”
