Running Behind
Holychild Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
When I just leave you waiting
Drop on the floor, break it to go creative
Where can I leave my father's ride?
Wake me up when the voices die
Do me like you might know my mind
Carry me to the other side
I'm sorry still
For all the lies I'm baiting
I'm human here
People greed and mistaken
Where can I leave my father's ride?
Wake me up when the voices die
Do me like you might know my mind
Carry me to the other side
Running, running, running, running behind yeah
I'm always really running behind, yo
Running, running, running, running behind yeah
I'm always really running behind, yo
We'll grow apart, baby let's blame the planets
Make a new start, changing as if we meant it
Where can I leave my father's ride?
Wake me up when the voices die
Do me like you might know my mind
Carry me to the other side
Running, running, running, running behind yeah
I'm always really running behind, yo
Running, running, running, running behind yeah
I'm always really running behind, yo
Running, running, running, running behind yeah
I'm always really running behind, yo
Running, running, running, running behind yeah
I'm always really running behind, yo
I'll hold your hand like
It's not hurting me
Help you go through see some true as believe
We're only thing we see
When all we think is eat
Just say my name and tell me that we're better off
And when I'm leaving you
And when I'm loving you
Darling just tell me that the world is ours so gone
Where can I leave my father's ride?
Wake me up when the voices die
Do me like you might know my mind
Carry me to the other side
Running, running, running, running behind yeah
I'm always really running behind, yo
Running, running, running, running behind yeah
I'm always really running behind, yo
Running, running, running, running behind yeah
I'm always really running behind, yo
Running, running, running, running behind yeah
I'm always really running behind, yo
Running, running, running, running behind yeah
I'm always really running behind, yo
Running, running, running, running behind yeah
I'm always really running behind, yo
Running, running, running, running behind yeah
I'm always really running behind, yo
Running, running, running, running behind yeah
I'm always really running behind, yo
The song "Running Behind" by HOLYCHILD has lyrics that appear to be about the struggles of balancing love and success, and how they often seem to conflict with each other. The first verse describes the feeling of being torn between leaving someone waiting and the need to create. It seems like the singer is struggling with their priorities and trying to balance their desires against their responsibilities. They feel sorry for the lies they tell, but recognize their own humanity and the mistakes they've made.
The chorus of the song repeats the phrase "running behind," which could be interpreted in a few different ways. It could mean that the singer is always running late, which could be a metaphor for feeling behind in life or not achieving as much as they want to. Alternatively, it could refer to chasing after something, such as love or success, but never quite catching up to it.
The second verse continues with the theme of conflicting priorities, with the singer saying that they'll blame the planets for growing apart from someone. They express a desire to make a new start, but it's unclear if they believe they can truly change. The bridge of the song is hopeful and romantic, with the singer holding their partner's hand and vowing to support them through tough times.
Overall, "Running Behind" is a reflective song that delves into the emotional struggles of trying to achieve balance in life. The catchy, upbeat tempo and sing-along chorus give it a hopeful feel, even as the lyrics explore darker themes.
