Running Away Lyrics

Cover art for Running Away lyrics by Fuel

I think the song is about an addiction: An addiction that he hides from 'her', an addiction that would damage their relationship if she knew. It could be drugs, alcohol, gambling, strip clubs, petty crimes. And each time he takes another hit, drink, look, touch, he promises HIMSELF that he has to quit. Regarding Line: "So tonight's the last we'll ever be alone"

If you have something to hide...the song will speak to you.

My Opinion

@mopardanimal I felt this way for the longest time - I pegged it for alcoholism, one that has cost him many relationships and that he keeps hidden from a significant other (If she found out about you she would die...)

I've come more towards the center on this after watching the series "Mad Men." I think a lot of the Don Draper character when I hear this song.
