Runnin'
Arrow Benjamin Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

These four lonely walls have changed the way I feel
The way I feel
I'm standing still
And nothing else matters now, you're not here
So where are you?
I've been callin' you
I'm missin' you
Where else can I go? Where else can I go?
Chasin' you, chasin' you
Memories turn to dust
Please don't bury us, I got you
I got you

Runnin', runnin', runnin', runnin'
Runnin', runnin', runnin'
Ain't runnin' from myself no more
Together we'll win it all
I ain't runnin', runnin', runnin', runnin'
Runnin', runnin', runnin'
Ain't runnin' from myself no more
I'm ready to face it all
If I lose myself, I lose it all

I've outrun the fears that chased
They're standin' still
I'm runnin' still
I'm runnin' still
And every voice that cried inside my head, forever drives
Forever drives
I've killed the lights, oh

Where else can I go?
And where else can I go?
Chasing you, chasing you oh

Runnin', runnin', runnin', runnin'
Runnin', runnin', runnin'
Ain't runnin' from myself no more
Together we'll win it all
I ain't runnin', runnin', runnin', runnin'
Runnin', runnin', runnin'
Ain't runnin' from myself no more
I'm ready to face it all

If I lose myself, I lose it all
If I lose myself, I lose it all




If I lose myself, I lose it all
If I lose myself, I lose it all

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Arrow Benjamin's song "Runnin'" convey a sense of longing, loneliness, and the struggle to find oneself. The singer describes being trapped in a state of emotional isolation, represented by the four walls around them. They feel stagnant and immobile, as if time has stopped without the presence of their loved one. The absence of this person weighs heavily on their mind, as they continue to reach out and call for them, expressing their deep yearning and longing.


The chorus reveals a change in perspective. The singer realizes that running away from themselves and their emotions is no longer an option. They choose to confront their fears and face the truth head-on with their loved one by their side. They are determined to conquer any challenge together, no matter the outcome. The repetition of the phrase "If I lose myself, I lose it all" indicates the high stakes involved in this emotional journey. Losing themselves would mean losing everything, emphasizing the importance of facing their emotions and finding resolution.


Overall, the song focuses on the themes of emotional struggle, the yearning for connection, and the importance of facing one's fears rather than running away from them. It highlights the transformative power of love and the willingness to confront challenges head-on in order to grow and find fulfillment.
