Running Low
Netsky Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

You can see it in my eyes
So swollen in time
From crying

I'm not dealing with myself
I'm feeling inside out
And I'm frightened
I'm over-thinking everything
I'm drinking everything
I'm not sleeping
I'm not dreaming

I need you to notice
Baby, I'm not coping
Pull me up, keep me close
Get me home

I'm running low
On your love
I'm running low
On your love
I'm running low
On your love
I'm running low
On your love
I'm running low

You can see it in my eyes
So swollen in time
From crying

I'm not dealing with myself
I'm feeling inside out
And I'm frightened

I'm over-thinking everything
I'm drinking everything
I'm not sleeping
I'm not dreaming

I need you to notice
Baby, I'm not coping
Pull me up, keep me close
Get me home

I'm running low
On your love
I'm running low
On your love
I'm running low
On your love
I'm running low
On your love
I'm running low

I'm running low
On your love
I'm running low
On your love
I'm running low

I don't understand why everyone can't allow artists to evolve and move on. They are not going to produce the same music over and over because it was "better".. It was only better back then because it was YOUR prime back then so just allow net sky to make what he wants . Peace

@MrGnomerdoom

Best song EVER produced by Netsky. This honestly tops everything else. What a massive powerful song. Love it all the way. Respect man for creating something EPIC like this!

@RicHairPIE

This is good but I think come alive is his best song. It doesn't have that typical dnb sound that most of his music has.
