The song "Keep Your Distance" by 4-Seamer seems to be about a relationship that has ended, where one person has decided to walk away. The singer in the song initially thought that things would be alright, but quickly realizes that this is not the case. Despite this, the singer has come to the conclusion that they are over the other person and feel much better for it. They acknowledge that the other person seems to think that they are mad or upset, but the singer is the opposite - they feel nothing. The chorus repeats the idea that the other person should stay away, and the singer hopes that the next time they talk, the other person will be more mature. The singer also insists that they will not be coming around the other person anymore and echoes the sentiment that the other person needs to keep their distance.
