Running
Disclosure feat. Jessie Ware Lyrics

The song “Running” by Disclosure featuring Jessie Ware is an electronic dance music track with a melancholic beat that spells out a story of a relationship that is both tangled and exhilarating. The chorus of the song, “Keep me running, you keep me running” implies that despite the complexities of the relationship, Jessie’s partner keeps her going and keeps her from falling apart.

The repeated line “And I'm lost again, it keeps happening” represents the uncertainty that comes with being involved in a complicated relationship. Jessie sings about her partner being the one constant in her life, but at times, she feels like she’s lost her way. The lyrics “All I wanna know, is it mutual? Am I ready to run? Am I ready to fall? I think I'm ready” express her doubts about whether her partner feels the same as she does, and whether she is ready to take the next step in their relationship.

The song has a sense of urgency to it, with its fast-paced beats and Jessie’s soaring vocals. The verse “Think I'm ready to lose it all” is a reflection of the risk that is involved when two people decide to take that step into a relationship, but are unsure whether it will work out in the end. Ultimately, the message of the song is that love and relationships are complicated, but the feeling of being lost and the sense of urgency are what make them worth it.
