Story

Here’s story of liberation and defiance in love.

In a state of escape, both physically and emotionally, the song expresses a sense of freedom and indifference towards the past and the constraints that once held him back. The repeated phrase “I’m on the run” emphasizes the determination to break free from whatever is holding him down.

The lyrics also touch on a relationship that is central to this journey. Him and his partner are united against the world, finding strength and freedom in their bond. The lines “It’s me and you against the world” and “That’s why we’re free” highlight this unity and shared defiance.

The song conveys a mix of resignation and hope, acknowledging that some things are inevitable (“What comes must go”) but also finding solace in the connection with his partner. The repeated calls to “just go” and “come back” suggest a cyclical nature to their journey, but always with a sense of moving forward and not looking back.

Lyrics

I’m on the run

I’m on the run

And I don’t even care

It don’t matter anymore

Don’t’ even care

It don’t matter anymore

I just don’t care about it anymore

I’m on the run

I’m on the run

I’m on the run

I’m on the run

I’m on the run

I’m on the run

 

Just go

Close the door

And pull the curtains

There’s nothing here that either one of us

should know

Either one of us

Should know

 

And it’s shining in your eyes

Your eyes

Your eyes

 

Shown me everything I…

Should see

 

This isn’t between the world

And you

This isn’t between the world

And me

 

It’s us

You see?

That’s why we’re free

 

It’s me and you against the world

The world against you and me

 

Oh… they’ll let us be

Let us be

Free…

 

When you go

When you go

Come back

 

What comes must go

And you know this as well I…

Do

 

Don’t you?

Don’t you?

 

I’m on the run

I’m on the run

And I don’t even care

It don’t matter anymore

Don’t’ even care

It don’t matter anymore

I just don’t care about it anymore

 

I’m on the run

I’m on the run

I’m on the run

I’m on the run

I’m on the run

I’m on the run

I’m on the run

I’m on the run

And I don’t even care

It don’t matter anymore

Don’t’ even care

It don’t matter anymore

I just don’t care about it anymore

I’m on the run

I’m on the run

I’m on the run

I’m on the run

I’m on the run

I’m on the run

 

Just go

Close the door

And pull the curtains

There’s nothing here that either one of us

should know

Either one of us

Should know

 

And it’s shining in your eyes

Your eyes

Your eyes

 

Shown me everything I…

Should see

 

This isn’t between the world

And you

This isn’t between the world

And me

 

It’s us

You see?

That’s why we’re free

 

It’s me and you against the world

The world against you and me

 

Oh… they’ll let us be

Let us be

Free…

 

When you go

When you go

Come back

 

What comes must go

And you know this as well I…

Do

 

Don’t you?

Don’t you?

 

I’m on the run

I’m on the run

And I don’t even care

It don’t matter anymore

Don’t’ even care

It don’t matter anymore

I just don’t care about it anymore

 

I’m on the run

I’m on the run

I’m on the run

I’m on the run

I’m on the run

I’m on the run
