Featured Tune: "Running" from Tatum Treffeisen

 Chasing Shadows, Finding Light

Tatum Treffeisen’s “Running” is a haunting, soul-baring confessional that captures what it feels like to unravel and rebuild—all at once. With every verse, she peels back a layer, exposing the quiet chaos of a mind stuck between survival and self-discovery.

There’s something strikingly cinematic about this track. The lyrics don’t just tell a story—they paint a moving picture: “Running slow, running fast / Running to what she’s running from.” It’s this emotional push-and-pull, this desperate momentum, that gives the song its heartbeat. You can almost feel the cold pavement under her feet and the weight she’s carrying with every step.

But “Running” isn’t just a metaphor. It’s rooted in reality—written while Treffeisen was training for a marathon. That real-world connection lends the song a sense of urgency, a pulse that mirrors the thudding rhythm of a runner's stride. The stripped-down production lets her voice take center stage, shaky but strong, like someone speaking up after a long silence.

She’s not asking for sympathy; she’s offering truth. And that’s what makes “Running” powerful—it’s not trying to be perfect. It’s trying to be real.

This is the kind of track that lingers long after it ends, the kind you return to when you need to feel seen. Tatum’s vulnerability isn’t just brave—it’s a quiet act of revolution.
