Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Out of the blue with these eyes like a jail
Eyes like a jail i was walking
Walking so long
Now I see light, now I feel strong
Right here by your side right by your side
And you ́re running inside of
Get you out of my thoughts
Get you out of my mind you are running
Baby, inside, you are running
In your arms I feel safe
In your eyes I can see
Deep at night, in my dreams
You are talking to me you are running
Inside my head, you are running you are
You keep that letter open your eyes
It ́s not a matter of the one disguise
You have saved me today saved me today
We know it well don ́t you think twice
Look how the storm has opened the skies
In a silent dream in a silent dream
And you ́re running inside of
My head all the time
Get you out of my thoughts
Get you out of my mind you are running
Baby, inside, you are running
In your arms I feel safe
In your eyes I can see
Deep at night, in my dreams
You are talking to me you are running
Inside my head, you are running
You are running
And we need to rise `Cause we need to rise
And we all break through lines
In time, in time
And you ́re running inside of
My head all the time
Get you out of my thoughts
Get you out of my mind you are running
Baby, inside, you are running
In your arms I feel safe
In your eyes I can see
Deep at night, in my dreams
You are talking to me you are running
Inside my head, you are running

Line by Line Meaning
You are narcotic you took me into custody
You have an addictive and captivating effect on me, as if you have taken complete control over me
Out of the blue with these eyes like a jail
Unexpectedly, your gaze feels imprisoning and restrictive
Eyes like a jail I was walking
I was wandering aimlessly, feeling trapped by your gaze
Walking so long
I have been journeying for a long time
Now I see light, now I feel strong
Finally, I have found enlightenment and regained my strength
Right here by your side right by your side
I am now standing beside you, supporting you
And you ́re running inside of my head all the time
Thoughts of you constantly occupy my mind
Get you out of my thoughts
I desire to remove you from my mind
Get you out of my mind you are running
However, you continue to persistently occupy my thoughts
Baby, inside, you are running
Dear, internally, you are constantly lingering in my thoughts
In your arms I feel safe
When I am embraced by you, I feel secure
In your eyes I can see
Through your gaze, I am able to perceive
Deep at night, in my dreams
During the darkest hours of the night, within my dreams
You are talking to me you are running
You are communicating with me in my dreams, always on the move
You keep that letter open your eyes
You continuously read that letter with wide-eyed attention
It ́s not a matter of the one disguise
The contents of the letter do not involve deception or pretense
You have saved me today saved me today
You have rescued me today, providing salvation
We know it well don ́t you think twice
We are fully aware of the situation, there is no need for hesitation
Look how the storm has opened the skies
Observe how the storm has caused the skies to open up
In a silent dream in a silent dream
Within a peaceful dream, completely devoid of noise
And we need to rise `Cause we need to rise
We must strive to elevate ourselves because it is necessary
And we all break through lines
All of us surpass boundaries and barriers
In time, in time
In due course, at the appropriate moment
You are running
You persistently continue to move and act
