Keep It Quiet Lyrics

Four hours up I-95
you and me were cold
If you want to compromise I can't
hold on

I know it's wrong
It's a cold life though

Cold water for cooling down
You know that when you stay around
Old fortune for subtle leave
But maybe you're sincere

Sister
Another

Trouble having satisfied
two different halves
Can I give up on one,
it's a thought I hate


All I could lose,
it's a cruel life I choose

Cold water for cooling down
But you know that when you stay around
Old fortune, for subtle leave
Oh but maybe you're sincere

Keep it quiet, keep it quiet
Oh my heartbeat, keep it quiet
Through the doorway, keep it quiet
Yes I'm tired, keep it quiet

Cold water for cooling down
But you know that when you stay around
Old fortune for subtle leave
But maybe you're sincere

All my doubt
All my doubt

How can I want to stay around

I have to say off their new EP this song is the best, which is saying a lot because all 3 songs are amazing. Have to say that this song is definitely about a struggling relationship, one that may be forbidden but they love the person so much that they dont want to let go. He tells them that if they compromise that he might be able to stick around for longer. He goes on to tell them that if they are going to stick around that they should know that it could be cold, "Cold water for cooling down. But you know THAT when you stay around". Their torn. His heart is beating so loudly and hes asking it to "keep quiet", that he shouldnt feel this way about this person seeing how cold the relationship can be at times. He has all sorts of doubts and questions himself why he would want to stay around. Just my take on it, great song.

i totally agree with that. except you need to listen to the album version. i like the EP but the album as a whole is done really well and this song works as an awesome closer. I think he might be telling the story as if he were on some road trip with this person and that makes it even less bearable
