I always hear this song as one about a boy who is struggling with society, not fitting in and/or feeling like an outcast.
"Run boy run! This world is not made for you
Run boy run! They’re trying to catch you"
"Run boy run! Break out from society"
"Run boy run! They’re dying to stop you"
I think that's applicable to many situations, a gay person in the closet like someone else said, a misfit, a bullying victim.. etc
The song itself feels like an older version of the bo comforting him. Reassuring him that tomorrow will be better, that he'll be a man and will explore different places of the world and so ultimately wouldn't have to live with those same people he despise for the rest of his life.
"Run boy run! Beauty lays behind the hills"
"Tomorrow is another day
And you won’t have to hide away
You’ll be a man, boy!"
But for now, he'll just have to survive.
"But for now it’s time to run, it’s time to run!"
