Running from Lions Lyrics
Don't forget we've got unfinished business, stories yet to unfold, tales that must be retold And I regret not knowing when to put an End to all this madness Keeps me wanting.............
makes me think of a bad relationship between someone that is in so deep that maybe isnt even a relationship like a friend that you were hooking up with and it went too far that now you're both hurting but they are in too deep, its too hard to end. they knew it would end badly but they keep coming back for more. running from lions seems like something that is impossible to do that it eventially will come to an end its just how long will you last in the chase before it ends disastrously
I think it's about someone (not necessarily Alex) having suicidal thoughts,"Running from lions never felt like such a mistake", the lions are sort of a metaphor for death, 'sort of' because they are a cause of death but not his/hers. They are saying they are not at the point where they are seriously considering taking their own life, but if an opportunity to die arose they wouldn't deny it, like if a car was coming for them they wouldn't move. The first verse is about how they mess everything up and won't be missed. The chorus is about the future that they could have if they hold on to life and their excitement for what's to come.
this is one o' the greatest songs ever, in my humble opinion. all time low is totes amazing.
good song...it's really pretty, but wtf does running from lions mean?
i can't figure out a good explanation for wtf this is about... i want to know lfhsdjotfdsljfgxjhv
this song sounds AWESOME with the full band, i love both acoustic and full band versions. yesss.
And when things get too HOT You've got me to blame For every FIRE that breaks out In every lover's name
Show me how I'm Yesterday's old news PHRASES left on paper
he's avoiding someone because he doesn't want to have to relive what happened. "get me out of this place before i cause more damage" he must of messed up a relationship with someone and he doesn't want to fix it.
Here's the correct lyrics...
Get me out of this place before I cause more damage. A small price to pay for building houses out of matchsticks. And when things get too hot, you've got me to blame for every fight that breaks out in every lover's name
Don't forget we've got unfinished business, stories yet to unfold, tales that must be retold And I regret not knowing when to put an End to all this madness Keeps me wanting Keeps me wanting more
Sell me out, I'm yesterday's old news, phrases left on paper, black ink bleeding through the pages where we made our history Call me foolish. I feel helpless.
Running from lions never felt like such a mistake. Like a deer in the headlights, I won't know what hit me
Don't forget we've got unfinished business, stories yet to unfold, tales that must be retold And I regret not knowing when to put an End to all this madness keeps me wanting keeps me wanting keeps me wanting keeps me wanting more.
Eep, sorry guys. I was typing them out while I was listening to the song. I never thought someone would actually comment on the song, at the time I was listening to them no on really knew them.
