Running Out of Time
Balaam And The Angel Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Sometimes it's hard
Sometimes there's no solution
Right from the start
There's always been confusion
Sometimes it's strange
Caught in a revolution
Within a change
There's still the sound of silence
And with this startling romance
I'll never let it get me down




Yet again
We're running outof time

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Balaam And The Angel's song, Running Out Of Time, convey a sense of urgency and confusion. The opening lines express how difficult it can be when there seems to be no solution to a problem, leading to feelings of confusion. The song suggests that sometimes we find ourselves in situations where we feel stuck, caught in a revolution, where change is happening all around, yet there remains an underlying sound of silence. The song acknowledges that it's strange to find oneself in such a situation, but despite this, there is an undercurrent of hope.


The lyrics convey the sense that time is running out - with the repeated refrain "yet again, we're running out of time". This repeated phrase reinforces the idea that time is precious, and every moment counts. There is an overall sense of urgency, that we need to act before it's too late. The lyrics suggest that time can slip away from us, and that we need to focus on what is important, to seize the moment before it's gone. The theme of the song is universal, reminding us that we all face the same essential issue: how to make the most of our time and live a life that matters.
