Lyrics Breakdown
Sitting alone in my bedroom
Thinking about the trip to come
My bags are packed and I’m ready
I think I’m gonna make a run, oh Lord
Oh Lord, I’m gonna make a run
The red hot coals are calling
And I know it’s the only way
There ain’t no use in prolonging
The fact that I just can’t stay
I know that I cannot stay
The song was based on the bad experience of the singer. It was reflected in the song as you can hear the pain in the lyrics and the anguish that was meant to be there. Yola made sure to paint the imagery of what it feels like to move away from something that has the potential to hurt you. This was such an excellent song from the country singer’s debut album.
