Mirror Kisses Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
and i wonder why
i let you cross that line
and leave me hanging out to dry
dont try to walk away
dont try to say its wrong
i know you miss me baby
youre my inspiration
to run to run
youre my fantasy
so let run
lets run away
in someone else's maze
you found yourself
and a hundred different ways
to keep me on the shelf
i dont wish to settle down
i dont wish to lose a friend
you might have someone now
but ill still be waiting in the end
The lyrics of Mirror Kisses's song Runaways describe the feelings of a person who has been betrayed by a loved one. The singer expresses confusion and disappointment about the actions of their partner but still longs for them. They are still drawn to their significant other despite being left hanging out to dry. The singer is fully aware of what they are doing, and they do not want the relationship to end, but they also do not want to be taken for granted.
The singer believes that they are the inspiration to keep running away from their problems, and the person they loved is their inspiration to keep moving. The song speaks to the desires of being free and escaping from the mundane, yet they still crave the presence of their loved ones. The lyrics describe the relationship as someone else's maze where the loved one found themselves while keeping the singer on the shelf. The singer, however, does not wish to settle and lose the relationship, and they remain hopeful that they will be reunited in the end.

you sold me out this time
You betrayed my trust this time
and i wonder why
I am confused about why you did it
i let you cross that line
I allowed you to overstep the boundaries
and leave me hanging out to dry
And abandoned me in a difficult situation
dont try to walk away
Don't attempt to reject me
dont try to say its wrong
Don't try to justify that it's incorrect
i know you miss me baby
I acknowledge that you still think of me
and its been so long
But it's been a long time since we were together
youre my inspiration
You motivate me
to run to run
To escape from it all
youre my fantasy
You are my ideal
so let run
Let's go away together
lets run away
Let's escape from the current situation
in someone else's maze
In a circumstance created by someone else
you found yourself
You discovered your true self
and a hundred different ways
And in many other ways
to keep me on the shelf
To control and restrict me
i dont wish to settle down
I am not ready to commit
i dont wish to lose a friend
I don't want to lose our friendship
you might have someone now
You may be in a relationship with someone else now
but ill still be waiting in the end
But I will still be here in the end waiting for you

You sold me out this time
And I wonder why
I let you cross that line
And leave me hanging out to dry
Don't try to walk away
Don't try to say it's wrong
I know you miss me baby
And it's been so long
[Chorus]
You're my inspiration
To run, to run
You're my fantasy
Let's run. We'll run away
In someone else's maze
You found yourself
And a hundred different ways
To keep me on the shelf
I don't wish to settle down
I don't wish to lose a friend
You might have someone now
But I'll- I'll still be waiting in the end
[Chorus]
I don't have an explanation
I just want you next to me
So let's run, We'll runaway

something about this song makes me feel an intense feeling of sorrow but at the same time it makes me feel like ive fallen in love again.

I can't describe the nostalgia I get from listening to this song, or really anything from heartbeats. I remember digging through bandcamp and finding the albums for free download back in high school. Jesus Christ this song takes me back. Thank you George.
