Stay Away is the second track off of Boy Hero’s 2018 Halloween-themed EP Rocktober. It follows a man through his transformation into a werewolf before his life partner attempts to cure him of the condition against his will.
[Verse 1]
Things are not as they were before
I see scratches in the hardwood floor
Signs of struggle and not for play
As for what happened, I cannot say
[Chorus]
Stay away
I can't see the stars fall, the moon is in the way
I hate to see you scared of me
[Verse 2]
Something inside me has caused this unrest
A hurt in my chest I can't pinpoint yet
Internal bleeding, a cancerous thought
No matter how hard I fight it, I can't shake it off
[Chorus]
Stay with me
I can't see the stars fall, the moon is in the way
But now I love what I've become
(The scars will fade, let go, we'll change
Then you and I will be the same)
[Bridge]
But you're right outside my door with the antidote
You'll force it down my throat
While hoping that I choke
I guess it's time I lose all hope
Ever since that day you have looked at me strange
Kept secrets from me, watched me while I sleep
Made sure I had what I need
So I never have to leave
[Outro]
I thought it was sweet 'til I saw you
Washing blood off the sheets
In the bathroom sink
