Lyrics
Verse 1
Flashlights…
Remember me all my young life
A childhood filled by the best times
The mist defines the undone parts
What’ve I done?
I want to break away
Should I run?
I want to break away
Bridge
But I know
All these feelings are so strong
A newborn man has come
But I know
There’s no return
Chorus
Why?
Why do you hide?
Why don’t you fight these fears and…
How?
How could you try?
To keep them away from your life
Verse 2
Star lights
Look up above… What is outside?
A calm and peaceful night sky
Can I be trapped by my own mind?
What’ve I done?
I can’t break away
Should I stay?
I won’t break away
Bridge
Chorus
About the song
Keep Away deals with depression and the fears that can knock you down without warning. The song argues for holding on to what makes you happy and stepping away from what hurts you. It was the ninth single from Silicon Fortress and the last one out before the album.
