about

I created most of this produced version live on my twitch stream, but have added some extra production. Since writing this song years back, I usually perform it live on harp, and I've always felt the harp is very central to this song, so it takes a big role here and I've ended up with an orchestra of harps and harmonies! I enjoyed imagining how this song could come to life and it's turned into more of a bop than I initially imagined it would. I hope you guys like this live demo.

lyrics

KEEPING ME - Lyrics

You’re keeping me
In the way that you’re leaving,
‘Cause you’re keeping all the hope alive.
I’m keeping you
Though you’ve run me through.
‘Cause there’s nothing left to hold onto.

Here is a lonely place
Between the truth and what you’ve put in its place.

Does it keep you up at night
When I wander through your dreams?
‘Cause you keep me up at night
As I reread every scene.

You’re keeping me up when you’re keeping me out
When you’re keeping me up, you’re just keeping me down
You’re keeping me up when you’re keeping me out.

You’re keeping me up when you’re keeping me out
When you’re keeping me up, you’re just keeping me down
You’re keeping me up when you’re keeping me out.

How does it feel
To rewrite a story?
How does it feel to change the past?
How does it feel
To write in your glory
When we both know your sins are vast?

Here is a lonely place
Between the truth and what you’ve put in its place.

Does it keep you up at night
When I wander through your dreams?
‘Cause you keep me up at night
As I reread every scene.

You’re keeping me up when you’re keeping me out
When you’re keeping me up, you’re just keeping me down
You’re keeping me up when you’re keeping me out.

You’re keeping me up when you’re keeping me out
When you’re keeping me up, you’re just keeping me down
You’re keeping me up when you’re keeping me out.

How does it feel
To rewrite a story?
