I Stay Away Lyrics

Yeah, hey
I want to travel south this year
I won't
Won't prevent safe passage here

Why you act crazy?
Not an act, maybe
So close, a lady
Shifty eyes, shady

Yeah, hey, yeah
Tears that soak a callous heart

Why you act frightened?
I am enlightened
Your weakness builds me
So someday you'll see

I stay away

Why you act crazy?
Not an act, maybe
So close, a lady
Shifty eyes, shady

I stay away
I stay away
I stay away
I stay away

What is the Meaning of I Stay Away?

Many would say this is about addiction, but not every AIC song is about that (or suicide, for that matter). I believe this song is about a toxic relationship. She is crazy, and maybe it’s not an act. Regardless, he knows there is no end in sight, except to stay away. But given the lyrics, seems he is still in love with her.
