Discover the story of the song > Running – Delta Spirit

The lyrics talk about a protagonist who is feeling hopeless and considering suicide (with a gun against his head). He is addressing his partner to "hold the light" and tries to come to her for support. But he narrates that when he kissed the partner, 'she fell dead', and he asks if anyone is listening to him. Overall, the lyrics seem to depict a person struggling with depression and loneliness, who has lost his romantic partner and is reaching out for help.
