Run Away
Pressure Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Don't run away, don't leave me, no.
Don't run away, don't run away,
Don't run away, don't leave me, no.
I had so many things to say,
But it didn't work out that way,
Just another day.
Don't run away, don't run away,
Don't run away, don't leave me, no.
Don't run away, don't run away,
Don't run away, don't leave me, no.
I acted like a fool,
And I broke the golden rule,
She was nothing to me,
Now I can see,
You are my destiny.
Don't run away, don't run away,
Don't run away, don't leave me, no.
Don't run away, don't run away,
Don't run away, don't leave me, no.
Don't run away, don't run away,
Don't run away, don't leave me, no.
Don't run away, don't run away,
Don't run away, don't leave me, no.
I had so many things to say,
You had your chance to make it,
But it didn't work out that way,
Instead you chose to fake it
Don't run away, don't run away,
No you know the rule
Don't run away, don't run away,
And still you broke it,
Don't, don't,don't ...
And still you broke it,
Don't, don't,don't ...
Maybe I'll forgive but I won't forget,
Won't live no lie that I'll regret,
Say I'm leaving.
Don't don't don't ...
Say I'm leaving.
Don't don't don't ...
Don't run away, don't run away,
Don't run away, don't leave me, no.
Don't, don't,don't ...
You don't know what's good for you
There's no other way
Don't, don't,don't ...
No, no, no, no, no, no, no,
You know the rule,
And still you break it.
Don't run away,
Don't run away,
Don't leave me, no.
You want to treat this love I share with you,
Like some cheap trinket,
See baby you don't know what's good for you,
And I don't have the time to take it.
Don't run away,
Don't run away, no,
Maybe I'll forgive but I won't forget,
I won't live no lie wake up to love,
That I'm going to regret.
Don't run away, don't run away.
No, no, no, no, no, no, no
You know the rule,
And still you broke it,
And still you broke it.
The song โRun Awayโ by Pressure has a simple but strong message that is conveyed through its repeated chorus of โDonโt run away, donโt leave me, no.โ The singer is pleading with their lover not to abandon them. The lines โI had so many things to say, but it didnโt work out that wayโ seem to suggest a past conversation that didnโt go well, or perhaps an initial attempt at a relationship that didnโt pan out. The singer then admits to acting foolishly and breaking the โgolden ruleโ, likely referring to infidelity towards the person they are now begging not to leave.
Despite the singerโs mistake, they declare that their current partner is their destined true love. The repeated refrain of โDonโt run awayโ conveys a sense of desperation and fear of being left alone. The line โYou donโt know whatโs good for youโ suggests that the person being addressed is making a mistake by considering leaving, and the repeated โno, no, noโ reinforces this warning. The song ends on a somewhat bitter note with the singer admitting they may forgive but wonโt forget, and that they wonโt live a lie or regret their decision to stay in the relationship.
