I'm going under, I'm suffocating
Drowning but I'm holding on
What keeps me breathing? Don't have an answer
I'm drowning but I won't let go

Away now, no way out
Away now, no way out

I've been a walking a lonesome highway
I felt as though I had no home
My bed's been taken by another I made the bed, now lie alone
Keep it away now motherfucker, now keep it away
Keep it away now motherfucker, now keep it away

Away now, no way out
Away now, no way out

Keep it away now motherfucker, now keep it away (hey)
Keep it away now motherfucker, now keep it away

Away now, no way out
Away now, no way out

I'm going under, I'm suffocating
Drowning but I'm holding on
What keeps me breathing? Don't have an answer
I'm drowning but I won't let go

Keep it away now motherfucker, now keep it away (hey)
Keep it away now motherfucker, now keep it away
Keep it away now motherfucker, now keep it away
Keep it away now motherfucker, now keep it away
Keep it away now motherfucker, now keep it away
Keep it away now motherfucker, now keep it away
Keep it away now motherfucker, now keep it away (hey)
Keep it away now motherfucker, now keep it away
Keep it away now motherfucker, now keep it away

    OK. I don't know who "interprets" the lyrics to many of the songs on this platform, but when I (try to) read the lyrics while I'm actually listening to the song, the written lyrics are WAY OFF.

    On this song, Scott sings "way down from the BIRTH CANAL, KEEP IT AWAY." Nothing close to "MFer."

    Yet I find the same stupid lyrics on all the other lyric sites, so obviously someone is copying someone. And the original lyrics are usually INCORRECT. So ALL of the websites are incorrect. It's maddening. JUST STOP IT. Actually LISTEN to what's being sung, don't just let your mind assume what's being sung.

This song seemingly tackles the methods of deception those who manipulate others use to get victims to follow their demands, as well as diverting attention away from important issues. They'll also use it as a means to convince people to hate or kill others by pretending acts of terrorism were committed by the enemy when the acts themselves were done by the masters of control to promote discrimination and hate. It also reinforces the idea that these manipulative forces operate in various locations, infiltrating everyday life without detection, and propagate any and everywhere. In general, it highlights the danger of hidden agendas, manipulation, and distraction, serving as a critique of those who exploit chaos and confusion to control and gain power, depicting a cautionary tale against falling into their traps. It encourages us to question the narratives presented to us and remain vigilant against manipulation in various parts of society.

Holiday

@[Diderik:33655] "Your a holiday!" Was a popular term used in the 50s/60s to compliment someone on their all around. For example, not only are they beautiful, but they are fun and kind too ... just an all around "holiday". I think your first comment is closer to being accurate. The singer/song writers state "Millions of eyes can see, yet why am i so blind!? When the someone else is me, its unkind its unkind". I believe hes referring to the girl toying with him and using him. He wants something deeper with her, thats why he allows himself to be as a puppet (even though for her fun and games) as long as it makes her happy. But he knows deep down that she doesnt really want to be serious with him and thats what makes him.

I think much like another song “Anti-Matter” (that's also on the same album as this song), this one is also is inspired by a horrifying van crash the band experienced on Nov 3, 2022. This, much like the other track, sounds like it's an extension what they shared while huddled in the wreckage, as they helped frontman Garrett Russell stem the bleeding from his head wound while he was under the temporary effects of a concussion. The track speaks of where the mind goes at the most desperate & desolate of times, when it just about slips away to all but disconnect itself, and the aftermath.
