Keep On
9.Catz 'n Dogz Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
These chains we’re meant to hold
Are far too much for these hands
The story’s all been told
There’s nothing left to understand
But the very breath that steals us all
To face what we’ve been told
To pry it out of my hands
To ever understand
Don’t hold on
Don’t get lost in the sound of the voices that keep you near
Don’t hold on
Don’t get caught in the sounds of all that you’ve seen here
The leaving hurts the most, but it’s the only way to go
To brace against the cold
To fall into these new hands
To never getting old
To never understand
Don’t hold on
Don’t get lost in the sound of the voices that keep you near
Don’t hold on
Don’t get caught in the sounds of all that you’ve seen here
Don’t hold on
Don’t get lost in the sound of the voices that keep you near
Don’t hold on
Don’t get caught in the sounds of all that you’ve seen here
Don’t hold on
Don’t get lost in the sound of the voices that keep you near
Don’t hold on
Don’t get caught in the sounds of all that you’ve seen here
The lyrics of "Keep On" by Catz 'n Dogz convey a message of letting go and not holding on to the past. The opening line "Don’t pull it in so close; you have to let it go" serves as a reminder that sometimes we must let go of things that we hold dear. The chains mentioned in the second line allude to the things that we hold onto, which can be a burden that is too heavy to bear. The fact that the story has been told and there is nothing left to understand suggests that the past cannot be undone, and we must accept it and move on.
The chorus repeats the phrase "Don’t hold on, don’t get caught in the sounds of all that you’ve seen here" as a warning against being trapped in the past. The line "The leaving hurts the most, but it’s the only way to go" reinforces the idea that even though leaving may be painful, it is necessary for growth and moving forward. Falling into new hands and never getting old suggest that change is the only constant in life and we must embrace it.
Overall, "Keep On" encourages listeners to let go of the past and embrace the present, even if it means leaving things behind. It is a reminder that change is needed for growth and development.
