This song was written in 2010, as I lay in bed recovering from endometriosis removal surgery and a long line of IVF failures. My band mate Phil Crew had an old track lying around, just music and I wrote the words. This new imagined version has echos of that melody and I'm every grateful to Phil and our late band mate Raoul Rodriguez, whom we lost too soon, for their support and inspiration.
I'm not running anymore.
This is for you.
Lyrics
Keep Moving Fast
layla_foord
[Verse]
Don't know where I'm going
But I know where I've been
I don't wanna face
The things that I have seen
Hard to look behind
I know what I will find
Keep my eyes ahead
and sadness from my mind
[Chorus]
What did I do?
Where did I go wrong?
If I can keep moving on
Escape where I am from
Shut down the past
Keep moving fast
Keep moving fast
[Verse]
I can't let you love me
Can't let you near
Gotta keep on moving
Get away from here
If I don't feel nothing
Then I can't feel the pain
I don't wanna make the
Same mistakes again
[Chorus]
What did I do?
Where did I go wrong?
Shut down the past
Keep moving fast
Keep moving fast
If I can keep moving on
Escape where I am from
Keep moving fast
Keep moving fast
[bridge]
Keep moving (keep moving fast, keep moving fast)
Keep moving (keep moving fast, keep moving fast)
Ahhhhh
[Verse]
Don't know where I'm going
But I know where I have been
Everyone who loves me
Always leaves the scene
So I don't feel loving
Can't feel the pain
I'll never let someone
Leave me again
[outro]
What did I do?
Where did I go wrong?
Shut down the past
Aghh
Keep moving fast
Keep moving fast
If I can keep moving on
Escape where I am from
Mmm
Keep moving fast
Keep moving fast
Keep moving (keep moving fast, keep moving fast)
Keep moving (keep moving fast, keep moving fast)
Ahhhhh
