The Probability of Staying

Drowned by the bottle
Choked by the pen
Cut by the memories
Now and again
Fear is the captor
Slave to the mind
And I'd give anything
To be free one more time
One more time

So come home
This time
Don't let go
And when I can't find
The words to say we'll be alright
Say it for me

There's nothing I wouldn't give
To hear your voice again
Out of the mouths of my demons
The rough, heavy breathing
I'm deaf to you
There's no one thing braver than waiting
And no one thing harder than staying
But you show no chance of swaying on me

So come home
This time
Don't let go
And when I can't find
The words to say we'll be alright
Say it for me
I can't promise that I'll be perfect
But you said that I was worth it

So stay
And never let me go
We'll be okay
And don't forget me
No don't forget me

You left me out here
Stranded on the road
And I'm calling for you
But I don't see a soul
All the ties are broken
And it's time for me to go
No turning back now
Then I hear you yelling no

So come home
This time
Don't let go
And when I can't find
The words to say we'll be alright
I'll say it for you
You don't have to worry about logistics
You don't have to wait until your next fix

So stay
And never let me go
We'll be okay
Just don't forget me
Don't forget me
