Night & Day
X-Tron Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

Need a little space to breathe
You see
Space to breath
Don't you see
Slow down the pace
Cuz I need a little space to breath
All out of breath yeah
Both hands on your knees

You've been running through my head
You've been running through my head
All day all night all day all night
You've been running through my head
You've been running through my head
All day all night all day all night
Slow down the pace
Cuz I need a little space to breath
You're all out of breath yeah
Both hands on your knees
Take a break
Have a seat
Matter fact take one next to me
Share a talk
Split a drink
Tell me your wildest dream
I can see you're running from something
I can see you tryna change the subject
That's fine girl I like dancing
But I have to tell you something
You've been running through my head
You've been running through my head
All day all night all day all night
You've been running through my head
You've been running through my head
All day all night all day all night
Slow down the pace
Cuz I need a little space to breath
You're all out of breath yeah
Both hands on your knees
All out of breath yea both hands on your knees
Cause everybody always wanted me to turn off my head and turn away
So nobody would care to say
I've been thinking about all the things all over again
I'm in my head while in my bedroom I'll be off it again
Now you're there in my head nothing faded
I feel lost but I know I can make it
You've been running through my head
You've been running through my head
All day all night all day all night
You've been running through my head
You've been running through my head
All day all night all day all night
Slow down the pace
Cuz I need a little space to breath
You're all out of breath yeah
Both hands on your knees
Slow down the pace
Cuz I need a little space to breath
All out of breath yeah
Both hands on your knees
You've been running through my head
You've been running through my head
All day all night all day all night
You've been running through my head
You've been running through my head
All day all night all day all night
Slow down the pace
Cuz I need a little space to breath

You're all out of breath yeah
Both hands on your knees

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of X-Tron's song "Night & Day" convey a sense of needing personal space and a break from the hectic pace of life. The repeated phrase "I need a little space to breathe" suggests a longing for solitude and a moment to relax and gather one's thoughts. The line "Slow down the pace" further emphasizes this desire for a slower, more peaceful rhythm.

The lines "Both hands on your knees" and "You've been running through my head" give the impression that the singer is overwhelmed by someone's presence. It's as if this person has consumed their thoughts, occupying their mind day and night. This could represent an internal struggle or a situation where someone is constantly on their mind, perhaps causing stress or anxiety.

The second section of the song introduces an intimate encounter where the singer invites the other person to sit and have a conversation. This could be a metaphorical invitation to open up and share their deepest thoughts and desires. The line "Take a break, have a seat" suggests the need for a pause from the chaos to genuinely connect with the other person.

The lyrics then go on to suggest that the person the singer is addressing is running away from something. There is an acknowledgement of their attempt to change the subject and avoid addressing certain issues. However, the singer doesn't mind, as they enjoy the dance of conversation. This could indicate their willingness to engage in a lighthearted interaction, but also their underlying desire for something more substantial.

The final repetition of the chorus emphasizes the theme of feeling overwhelmed and the need for space. The lines "Cause everybody always wanted me to turn off my head and turn away" suggest that the singer has felt pressured to push their thoughts aside and ignore their own needs. The sentiment of feeling lost, yet believing in their ability to overcome, is also conveyed.

Overall, "Night & Day" portrays a longing for personal space, a desire for a deeper connection, and a struggle to find balance amidst the demands of life and relationships.
