"we can run" is a way to say "we can break up" or we can fight and get through it. they chose to fight through it since they never say "we ran" its still a condition for the future waiting to happen, but still able to be changed. they never run so vic fights for her forever. for diamonds and gold.

basically its saying nothing cant tear "us" apart
