Let Me Stay

Sister, where'd you go?
I've gone and fallen off my horse again
Summer's ending, I'm remembering
Everything we could've been

But those forever feelings never stay
I had a centre once; she went away

Was the weight of my darkness too great?
Call me the light
I will drive those demons away

Brother, where'd you go?
I've wandered off and lost my way again
My feeding frenzies
Leave me feeling empty nine times out of ten

Those phosphorescent petals always fade
You said you loved me once, but something changed

Was the strain of my sadness too great?
Call me the rain
I am here to clean the slate

Brief moments of bravery
Relapses into cowardice
Glimpses of profundity
Dances with the precipice

Retreating back into your slippery shell
Safe within the dismal diving bell

Well, instead of going into hiding
And pushing everyone who loves you away
What if you opened up your doors
And let me stay?
