Blade Running
Donkeyboy Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

I'm a guy
Who never did anything wrong, my friend
Until I, I met you
The plan was good, every detail, every step we took
A master plan, what went wrong?

We all lose some time
(Feels good but it made me feel alone)

Now I can't get more time
(You are beautiful)
I've done something wrong
(We had everything)

We took a left, driving down the road
We had everything settled down
Right in the horizon, far away I see the threat
All along we should have gone right

We all lose some time
(Feels good but it made me feel alone)
Now I can't get more time
(You are beautiful)
I've done something wrong
(We had everything)

We all lose some time
(Feels good but it made me feel alone)
Now I can't get more time
(You are beautiful)
I've done something wrong
(We had everything)

We all lose some time
(Feels good but it made me feel alone)
Now I can't get more time
(You are beautiful)

I've done something wrong
(We had everything)

Overall Meaning

The song "Blade Running" by Donkeyboy is a melancholic reflection on lost opportunities and regrets. The opening lines set the stage, with the singer describing himself as someone who has never done anything wrong until he meets someone who changes everything. The lyrics then describe a "master plan" that seemed foolproof but went wrong.

The central theme of the song is the idea that we all have a limited amount of time and that every decision we make has consequences. The chorus repeats the phrase "We all lose some time," emphasizing the inevitability of the passage of time and the loss that comes with it. The verses describe specific moments in which the singer made choices that led him down the wrong path.

Despite the regret expressed in the lyrics, there is also a sense of admiration for the person who has caused this upheaval. The repeated phrase "You are beautiful" suggests that the singer is drawn to this person even though they have caused him pain.

Overall, "Blade Running" is a powerful meditation on the fragility of life and the importance of making choices that we won't regret.

Line by Line Meaning

I'm a guy
I am male

Who never did anything wrong, my friend
I have a clean record

Until I, I met you
My life changed after meeting you

The plan was good, every detail, every step we took
Our plan was thorough and thought out

A master plan, what went wrong?
Despite our well-planned strategy, something went awry

We took a left, driving down the road
We made a turn while driving

We had everything settled down
We were content with our situation

Right in the horizon, far away I see the threat
I noticed a danger in the distance

All along we should have gone right
In hindsight, we should have taken a different route

We all lose some time
Time is a limited resource for everyone
