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”
Run away to no where
Too chicken shit to face
I'm gunna go there
The fear I cannot taste
You think you got me
You're gunna tumble down
Keep coming for me
I'll drop you on the ground
I fuck with no one
Until you get in my face
Break you now
Mercy, I cannot allow
Through your face, My fist will plow
Watching as your blood pours down
Lets do this now x2
You're gunna feel how
I really am with you
You're going no where
Don't really know what to do
It's going to go on
Until you run away
You can't control me
You best do in my way
I fuck with no one
Until you get in my face
Break you now
Mercy, I cannot allow
Through your face, My fist will plow
Watching as your blood pours down
Lets do this now x2
Don't you know that
You can touch me
Don't you know that
You can bring me down
Oh my life would be so easy now
If you haven't stepped across that line
LINE! LINE!
Break you now
Mercy, I cannot allow
Through your face, My fist will plow
Watching as your blood pours down
Lets do this now x5
Too chicken shit to face
I'm gunna go there
The fear I cannot taste
You think you got me
You're gunna tumble down
Keep coming for me
I'll drop you on the ground
I fuck with no one
Until you get in my face
Break you now
Mercy, I cannot allow
Through your face, My fist will plow
Watching as your blood pours down
Lets do this now x2
You're gunna feel how
I really am with you
You're going no where
Don't really know what to do
It's going to go on
Until you run away
You can't control me
You best do in my way
I fuck with no one
Until you get in my face
Break you now
Mercy, I cannot allow
Through your face, My fist will plow
Watching as your blood pours down
Lets do this now x2
Don't you know that
You can touch me
Don't you know that
You can bring me down
Oh my life would be so easy now
If you haven't stepped across that line
LINE! LINE!
Break you now
Mercy, I cannot allow
Through your face, My fist will plow
Watching as your blood pours down
Lets do this now x5
