🌀 Running Through Traffic – Bonnie Legion

A Sound Legion Production
Genre: Raw Acoustic / Poetic Indie Folk
🎧 Song Description (by Bonnie Legion)

    “Running Through Traffic” is a raw acoustic unraveling—part song, part stream-of-consciousness soul expulsion. It's built from stripped-down acoustic guitar strums layered with subtle rhythmic swells and poetic, dramatic vocals that drift between vulnerability and cosmic defiance.

This is a song about the blur between truth and nonsense, existence and illusion, and what it means to fall—through gravity, through dreams, through yourself. It was born from wonder and weariness. From wanting to know the truth so badly that you start questioning whether truth was ever built to make sense in a world like this.

It’s an emotional hallucination carved into melody—a surreal drama told through myth, mineral, memory, and the aching heart. Delilah, in this piece, is not just a name. She’s a voice, a mirage, a creation of the narrator’s fragmented mind. A vessel of hope or an invented god.

This song explores infinity, perception, alienation, and consciousness as a messy artistic prayer. If you’ve ever felt like you were falling through the noise, whispering to the stars, asking the moon if it’s real—this is for you.

📝 Lyrics: Running Through Traffic

by Bonnie Legion
I sat alone when you saw me  
I was alone when you called me  
nobody's here, we're all falling  
down, down to the bottom of the ground  

I mix with the air, I am hollow  
still bleeding fair, we will call though  
silence is warry, I'm hopeful  
the moonlight’s like nonsense inside of my conscience eye  

and I was just laying there floating  
speaking to the stars and hoping  
that someone would hear me spoken  
the words that melted stone-like Delilah  

she was an angel in heaven  
fell down far to the graveyard  
someone there saw her, he spoke of  
the words—she was doing some falsehood  
no clue by the law  

oh can you help me, Delilah  
I need my vision to wake up  
they've all been lying, Delilah  
I'm falling into the empty of your cup  

whisper me truths now, Delilah  
stare at my bruise now, Delilah  
they all use me, and now I fall to the stars  
through the ground  
through the Martian lands  

and there's a desert and no one’s here  
this is an alien world  
make sure there's something to fall on  
he said it, and I don't understand you  
'cause if I'm falling, I'm falling forward  
striving to power, I see what's coming  
if it smacks me, I'll take it, Delilah  
in my conscience, I made you up  
I made you up, kinda  

you rose with the gentle inside ya  
created me something better  
sending me watching in the lighthouse  
hear me falling, calling to the white mouse  

everyone's watching, Delilah  
the moon, sun, the stars, the nirvana  
climbing the stairway, Delilah  
God spoke fairly and the messenger denied ya  

I sat alone when you saw me  
I was alone when you called me  
nobody's here, we're all falling  
down, down to the bottom of the ground  
I mix with the air, I am hollow  
still bleeding fair, we will call though  
silence is warry, I'm hopeful  
the moonlight’s like nonsense inside of my conscience eye
