How do I connect these three seemingly irrelevant clauses of lyrics? I am studying the lyrics of by . I am quite confused by the first three lines in this part: > **** > > **** > > > > From my understanding: The first line says "I stopped making pinky promises with the future ". The second line says "Even if I try to run away from the pain..." The third line says "Look, the cold wind is stroking your hair". I feel like I've misunderstood something, because: * usually the clause after says something about the clause before it, but here the two clauses seem unrelated. Is the just filler, and that the two lines are totally separate? * The second and third lines has this "" structure, but I can't seem to fit the meaning into it either. Maybe the "cold wind" is the "pain" that "I" am trying to run away from? That's kind of a stretch though...

I agree with you on your take about . We all expect a cause/reason why they stopped doing that, yet that is not given. It's unsettling.

is a little more comfrotable because presumably it means one cannot escape the pain because the cold wind blows your hair. It's still somewhat nonsensical but I think it's at an acceptable level as a lyrics.
