This song depicts Elias' determination to keep himself associated with certain people despite being vastly different than them. Because he feels his life will have more meaningful memories if he remains associated with these people, so he “keeps himself within this long and holy light”. This message...
I know it will break out
All that you have been given
Feel it flower underneath your skin
Unless you let it shiver
I keep myself within
This long and holy light
Remember
These days
It stays here
Forever
And I keep myself within and I keep myself within
And I keep myself within and I keep myself within
And I keep myself within and I keep myself within
And I keep myself within and I keep myself within
These days are marked
It saves our lives
All this blood that surrounds me
Break into my veins
I keep myself within
This long and holy light
Remember
These days
Forever
It stays here
And I keep myself within and I keep myself within
And I keep myself within and I keep myself within
And I keep myself within and I keep myself within
And I keep myself within and I keep myself within
And I keep myself within and I keep myself within
And I keep myself within and I keep myself within
And I keep myself within and I keep myself within
And I keep myself within and I keep myself within
