RUNRUNRUN
Dutch Melrose Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Oh father, please
Please forgive all my sins
The water is way too deep
The deep end is where I live
Father, please
There's blood all over these sheets
The devil is in the mirror
He's staring right over me

I always thought it would be easy (easy)
To get you out my mind (mind)
I think I found a new addiction
It feels so right

Run, baby, run
Run for your life
I'ma tear out your heart
It'll always be mine
Run, baby, run
Run for your life
Gonna tear out your heart
It'll always be mine

Oh, there she go
Losing my head
Say you'll love me to death
'Cause I will
Oh, there she go
Show me you care
Say you'll always be there
'Cause I will

Oh father, please
Please don't waste any time
The sirens are turning red
I found a whole another vice
Father, please
She's perfect in your design
She's covered in Saint Laurent
You've shown me the holy light

I always thought it would be easy (easy)
To get you out my mind (mind)
I think I found a new addiction
It feels so right

Run, baby, run
Run for your life
I'ma tear out your heart
It'll always be mine
Run, baby, run
Run for your life
Gonna tear out your heart
It'll always be mine

Oh, there she go
Losing my head
Say you'll love me to death
'Cause I will
Oh, there she go
Show me you care
Say you'll always be there
'Cause I will





Run, baby, run
Run, baby, run

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Dutch Melrose's song "RUNRUNRUN" seem to be about a relationship that has gone horribly wrong, and the singer is dealing with the consequences. The first verse is addressed to the singer's father, asking for forgiveness for all their sins. The water is too deep for the singer to cope, and they live in the deep end of it. The second line refers to blood on bedsheets, possibly as a result of violence or passion. The singer sees themselves as being tormented by the devil, watching them from the mirror.


The chorus sees the singer telling someone to run for their life, as they will tear out the person's heart and it will always be theirs. The singer seems to be addicted to this person with whom they have a toxic relationship. The second verse is similar to the first, with the singer pleading with their father. The sirens are turning red, and the singer has found another vice to obsess over. The singer sees the person they are talking about as being designed by God, their own perfect creation. They have been shown the holy light, but seem to be unable to overcome their addiction. In the end, the song ends with the lines of the chorus repeated twice in quick succession.
