Miles Away
Shayna Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
All the different faces
Escape the norm′
Running circles of the world
We're the renegades
I don′t wanna get no sleep
Unless you are watching over me
To a place I don′t belong
I don′t wanna go, I don't wanna go
When I′m feeling on my own
But you
You make me feel like I don't ever wanna go home
But you
You make me feel like I don′t ever wanna go home
We'll be miles away but that′s ok
'Cause I never feel alone, with you
You make me feel like
You make me feel like I don't ever wanna go home
We lie together on the shores of the underpass
Which way to go
See metropolitan waves through our looking glass
These dreams to see the world up close
These memories we′ll keep until we′re grown
I don't wanna go, I don′t wanna go
To a place I don't belong
I don′t wanna go, I don't wanna go
When I′m feeling on my own
But you
You make me feel like I don't ever wanna go home
But you
You make me feel like I don't ever wanna go home
We′ll be miles away but that′s ok
'Cause I never feel alone, with you
You make me feel like
You make me feel like I don′t ever wanna go home
We'll be miles away but that′s ok
'Cause I never feel alone with you
You make me feel like
You
You make me feel like I don′t ever wanna go home
But you
You make me feel like I don't ever wanna go home
We'll be miles away but that′s ok
′Cause I never feel alone, with you
You make me feel like
You make me feel like I don't ever wanna go home
The lyrics of Shayna's song "Miles Away" explain the deep love and trust she has for her partner. From the very first lines of the song, the words "seeing different places, all the different faces, escape the norm", imply that the couple is trying to get away from their everyday life and explore new things together. They are "renegades" who are not afraid of change, and they achieve true happiness in each other's company.
The repeated lines "I don't wanna go, I don't wanna go, to a place I don’t belong, when I’m feeling on my own" are expressing Shayna's fear of losing herself or becoming too distant from her partner. She wants to be with them at all times, because they make her feel like she is never alone. The lyrics "we'll be miles away but that's okay, 'cause I never feel alone, with you" indicate that the couple may be physically separated by distance, but the love and support they provide one another makes the distance bearable. The lines "we lie together on the shores of the underpass, which way to go, see metropolitan waves through our looking glass" paint a vivid picture of the couple lying together in a secluded place and admiring the city through a looking glass.
Overall, "Miles Away" captures the feeling of being in love and finding contentment and joy in the company of another person. It also expresses the fear of losing that feeling and the desire to always be close to the one you love.

Your presence brings comfort and companionship
You make me feel like

I don't wanna go, I don′t wanna go
I am hesitant to leave my comfort zone
To a place I don't belong
To an unfamiliar or unwelcoming environment
When I′m feeling on my own
When I am isolated or disconnected
But you
But your presence changes everything
We′ll be miles away but that′s ok
We can still share the adventure despite the distance

This track is so completely legit. Such a clean sound. Her voice is soft yet powerful - totally awesome. I’ve been listening to this non stop on Spotify. Literally everyone I share it with here in NZ or overseas is like “damn wtf is that - it’s amazing”. This would fly with the right exposure. So seriously hoping it does. You’re amazing Shayna!
