Breaking Away
Kid Runner Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
This is the last time I'll leave it to fate
There's a war between us now
Static lines cutting through this ground
It's not a stable place
Don't call me a coward for running away
Ooh, erase it all it's over now
Oh, getting lost inside the radio
And the end I can see
It's right infront of you infront of me
Everything that's telling me wer'e through
And if all you can say
Is one more lie to try to make me stay
Let me be the one to tell the truth
I'm breaking away from you
They said to just wait it up
Nothing will happen with my head in the clouds
Fire burning red, it's already dead, and I'm already gone
The road will
Turn and bend
Breaking the flow that always needed to end
Ooh, erase it all
It's over now
And the end I can see
It's right infront of you infront of me
Everything that's telling me wer'e through
And if all you can say
Is one more lie to try to make me stay
Let me be the one to tell the truth
I'm breaking away from you
I've left a lot undone
And it's unraveling beneath
The path that I've begun
You'll always follow me
Closing all the doors
I leave the mess for you to clean
what wer'e you waiting for?
There's nothing left for me
Ohhh
There's nothing left for me
Ohhh
There's nothing left for me
Ooh getting lost inside the radio
You'll never find me
And the end I can see
It's right infront of you infront of me
Everything that's telling me wer'e through
And if all you can say
Is one more lie to try to make me stay
Let me be the one to tell the truth
And if all you can say
Is one more lie to try to make me stay
Let me be the one to tell the truth
The lyrics of Kid Runner's "Breaking Away" are about a relationship falling apart and the singer's decision to end it. They start off with the disbelief of something happening today and the fear of leaving it to fate. The relationship is compared to a war, with static lines cutting through the ground, representing how communication has broken down between them. The singer acknowledges that it's not a stable situation and they don't want to be seen as a coward for running away.
The chorus talks about the singer getting lost inside the radio and erasing everything, indicating a desire to start fresh and move forward. They acknowledge that the end is in sight, and everything is telling them that they need to break away from the relationship. They're tired of being lied to, and they want to be the one to tell the truth and end things.
In the second half of the song, the singer reflects on their decision to end things and the consequences it will have. There's a sense of unfinished business and leaving a mess behind that they acknowledge, but ultimately they feel that there's nothing left for them. The song ends with the chorus again, emphasizing the desire to break away and start anew.

They said it wouldn't come today
Someone said something wouldn't happen today
This is the last time I'll leave it to fate
This is the final time I let destiny control the situation
There's a war between us now
There's a conflict between us
Static lines cutting through this ground
Unhappiness and tension exist
It's not a stable place
The situation is not consistent
Don't call me a coward for running away
Don't criticize me for leaving
Ooh, erase it all it's over now
Trying to forget everything and moving on
Oh, getting lost inside the radio
Escaping reality by tuning into music
You'll never find me
You won't locate me
And the end I can see
I can see what the conclusion looks like
It's right infront of you infront of me
It's apparent to both of us
Everything that's telling me wer'e through
All the signs and signals are saying we're finished
And if all you can say
If the only thing you can say
Is one more lie to try to make me stay
Is another untruth to convince me to remain
Let me be the one to tell the truth
Allow me to express the truth
I'm breaking away from you
I'm separating myself from you
They said to just wait it up
Someone advised to be patient
Nothing will happen with my head in the clouds
Staying in a dream-like state will lead to nothing
Fire burning red, it's already dead, and I'm already gone
The passion is gone and I've already moved on
The road will
The journey will
Turn and bend
Change direction and shape
Breaking the flow that always needed to end
Breaking the pattern that was meant to come to a close
I've left a lot undone
I failed to complete many things
And it's unraveling beneath
Everything seems to be falling apart
The path that I've begun
The path I'm on
You'll always follow me
You'll always be present
Closing all the doors
Shutting down all the possibilities
I leave the mess for you to clean
I'm leaving the problems for you to solve
what wer'e you waiting for?
What were you expecting?
There's nothing left for me
Nothing remains for me

Hi! My name is Darby, and I was wondering if you would allow me to use your music in one of my videos? I recently filmed a Spring lookbook, and it would be an honour to use your music!
