Signs
Running Touch Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
When you said your name I knew enough, you started it
You should know the names, the ones that I've been hiding
I've said enough, now don't you come and find me
No, I know you're ready to go, I threw away the signs
And no, I didn't say I'd let you know
No, I know you're ready to go, I threw away the signs
And no, I didn't say I'd let you know
I know you said it but I can't be sure you know, didn't know
No
Yeah I saw the signs
Yeah I saw you, yes I did
In an off white room we said it all, lost
Was a night on fire, we set it off, lost
You should know the names, the ones that I've been hiding
I've said enough, now don't you come and find me
There's no cure tonight, no, not a breath of me
The bind's tight, in my head it rings
And I lied, you were right
And no, I know you're ready to go, I threw away the signs
And no you won't find me
No, no, no
Yeah I saw the signs
Yeah I saw you
Yes I did
No, I know you're ready to go, I threw away the signs
The song "Signs" by Running Touch talks about finding oneself in a relationship and being tired of constantly looking down at the ground. The mention of being in love hints at a romantic relationship, and when the other person says their name, the singer knows enough about the relationship, causing them to start to make efforts to really be with their partner. The singer acknowledges that there are things they've been hiding, things they believe their partner should know, but chooses not to reveal them just yet.
The second verse talks about a memorable moment shared between the singer and their partner in a white room. They acknowledge that the relationship is lost, but they still seem to want to hold on to the memories. As the song progresses, the singer admits to lying to their partner and that the other person was right. However, they still choose not to come forward with everything and decide to remain in hiding.
In summary, "Signs" is about the singer finding love but also being unable to share everything with their partner, which causes an emotional disconnect to occur.
