No Man’s Land Lyrics – Marshmello ft. Venbee
No Man’s Land Lyrics
[Verse 1: Venbee]
When we were young, we had it rough
Short on money, short on love
That's how the wayside takes
The wayside keeps its ghosts
Thick as thieves, my fears and me
We've been wrong and now ten years deep
That's how the wayside takes
And it keeps a hold on me
[Chorus: Venbee]
Oh, I'm living in a no man's land
Nowhere land, no place left to go
When I'm running from myself
I'm holding on to hope
And struggling to cope
And there's places I can't leave
And they're leaving a mark on me
So I'm living in a no man's land
Everywhere I go, I'm running from myself
[Verse 2: Venbee]
Right age, wrong crowd
Blamed it all on my hometown
But it wasn't them
They never let me down
No, it was me
I drank, I smoked
I held it in until I choked
Still, these roots are wrapped around my feet
[Chorus: Venbee]
Oh, I'm living in a no man's land
Nowhere land, no place left to go
When I'm running from myself
I'm holding on to hope
And struggling to cope
And there's places I can't leave
And they're leaving a mark on me
So I'm living in a no man's land
Everywhere I go, I'm running from myself
[Outro: Venbee]
(I'm living in a no man's land)
(I'm living in a no man's land)
And there's places I can't leave
When they're leaving a mark on me
So I'm living in a no man's land
Everywhere I go, I'm running from myself
No Man’s Land Lyrics Meaning
The lyrics of "No Man's Land" by Marshmello featuring Venbee depict a journey through the challenges and struggles of life, particularly during the formative years. The song reflects on a difficult past marked by financial constraints and a lack of love. It explores the impact of personal choices, including association with the wrong crowd, substance use, and the resulting self-blame. The recurring theme of being stuck in a "no man's land" metaphorically represents a sense of isolation and inner conflict. Throughout the lyrics, there's a struggle to find hope and cope with the lingering consequences of past decisions.
[Verse 1]
The opening verse reminisces about a challenging youth marked by financial difficulties and a shortage of love. The "wayside" symbolizes life's hardships, and the ghosts represent lingering struggles. The reference to being "thick as thieves" implies a deep connection between the narrator and their fears. The ten-year reference suggests a prolonged battle with personal challenges, portraying the enduring nature of these struggles.
[Chorus]
The chorus speaks to the current state of living in a "no man's land" or a place with no clear direction. The narrator is running from themselves, holding onto hope while grappling with the difficulties of coping. The inability to leave certain places and the lasting impact on the narrator's life are emphasized. The repetition of "running from myself" underscores the internal conflict and the difficulty of escaping one's own past.
[Verse 2]
The second verse delves into the theme of blaming external factors for personal shortcomings. The narrator acknowledges blaming their hometown and the wrong crowd but realizes the true source of the problem lies within themselves. The reference to drinking and smoking suggests self-destructive behavior, and the imagery of roots wrapped around the feet signifies being anchored to these detrimental habits.
[Chorus]
The chorus repeats, emphasizing the continued struggle of living in a "no man's land." The narrator is still running from themselves, trying to maintain hope amid the ongoing challenges. The places that can't be left and the marks they leave symbolize the lasting impact of past actions and choices.
[Outro]
The outro reinforces the idea of living in a "no man's land" and echoes the sentiment of running from oneself. The repetition of the line "Everywhere I go, I'm running from myself" emphasizes the pervasive nature of the internal struggle, suggesting that the past continues to haunt and shape the present.
