Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Light up my path
Here in the dewy meadow
Taking my hand
Leading the way
Still you are just a shadow
Oooooooooh
Looking for somethin'
Better than nothin'
Oooooooooh
Yearnin' for something new
I heard your call
Soft in the woods
Sweet as a baby's laughter
Touchin' a string
Deep in my heart
But tell me what happens after
Oooooooooh
Looking for somethin'
Better than nothin'
Oooooooooh
Yearnin' for somethin' new
Ohoh
Run run run away
Run run run away
I don't wanna run away
Run run run away
Run run run away
I don't wanna run away
It's gettin' dark
I'm losin' my way
You left with the cold wind blowing
The beautiful voice that sang out my name
Now all I hear is roaring
Run run run away
Run run run away
I don't wanna run away
Run run run away
Run run run away
I don't wanna run away
Breakin' of dawn
Cold on the ground
Graspin' that hope that's dying
Here in the wild
I am your pray
I see now that you were lying
Run run run away
Run run run away
I don't wanna run away
Run run run away
Run run run away
I don't wanna run away
Run run run away
Run run run away
I don't wanna run away
Run run run away
Run run run away
I don't wanna run away
The lyrics to Kier's song "Run Run Run" seem to tell the story of a person who is searching for something more fulfilling in their life. The first verse sets the scene in a picturesque meadow with the sun shining and someone leading them by the hand, but despite the apparent beauty around them, the person leading them is still just a shadow. The next verse talks about how the singer of the song is looking for something better than nothing and yearning for something new, and they hear a voice that touches them deep inside but are unsure of what happens next. The chorus features a repetitive plea to not run away, but as the song progresses, we see that the person's attempts to stay may be futile.
The third verse suggests that the person may have been betrayed by the voice they heard in the woods, as all they hear now is the roaring of the wind. The final verse describes the breaking of dawn and a cold, dark reality sinking in as they realize the person they trusted was lying to them all along. The song ends with a final plea to not run away, despite the overwhelming feeling that it may be the best option.
Overall, the song seems to be about the difficulties of navigating a world that can often be confusing and misleading. It speaks to the universal desire for something more fulfilling but acknowledges the challenges of finding it. While the lyrics are somewhat open to interpretation, the themes of betrayal and disillusionment are certainly prevalent.
