[Verse 1]
Wasn't I not there for you?
Did I ever let you down?
Did I once ever hurt your heart
Or ever turn away?
Didn't I not bear it for you?
Didn't I not wear that crown?
Didn't I help you quiet the fears
And keep the clouds at bay?
[Pre-Chorus]
But in your heart, it's still the same
Some things just never change
[Chorus]
'Cause I know the pain he caused you
And I know the scars on which you stand
And I know the black you bring, so just
Keep it away, keep it away
'Cause I know the pain he caused you
And I know the dark from which you stand
And I know the hell you break, so just
Keep it away, keep it away from me
Keep it away
[Verse 2]
Did I ever takе from you?
Did I ever pull away?
Did I not help you clеan the wounds
And help it all to heal?
Someday, maybe you'll know
Bitter winds don't always blow
[Chorus]
'Cause I know the pain he caused you
And I know the scars on which you stand
And I know the black you bring, so just
Keep it away, keep it away
'Cause I know the pain he caused you
And I know the dark from which you stand
And I know the hell you break, so just
Keep it away, keep it away from me
[Bridge]
You know I've tried to see
But there's just no way
The darkness that you bring
Keep it away
[Chorus]
'Cause I know the pain he caused you
And I know the scars on which you stand
And I know the black you bring, so just
Keep it away, keep it away
'Cause I know the pain he caused you
And I know the dark from which you stand
And I know the hell you break, so just
Keep it away, keep it away from me
Keep it away from me
