Why I'm Here
I was trapped in the fire
I was caught in the flames
I almost drowned in the water
I was left in the rain
So I stay dry
You pulled me tight to your shoulder
Turned my head sideways
I guess I gave in the moment
When I gave up the race
I'll tell you why
Oh I promised that I'd
Keep to myself this time
But I can't help the way I feel
And if you knew how hard I tried
To keep you off my mind
You'd know exactly why I'm here
I get the calls from my mama
Her worry bleeds into mine
She says you're just like my father
Gonna leave me behind
I built a wall in his absense
I never learned how to trust
And I gave into habit
When I pushed me off
So pull me in
Oh I promised that I'd
Keep to myself this time
But I can't help the way I feel
And if you knew how hard I tried
To keep you off my mind
You'd know exactly why I'm here
Don't keep me waiting, no
Don't keep me waiting on ya
Don't keep me waiting, no
Don't keep me waiting on ya
Oh I promised that I'd
Keep to myself this time
But I can't help the way I feel
And if you knew how hard I tried
To keep you off my mind
You'd know exactly why I'm here
You'd know exactly why I'm here
I was caught in the flames
I almost drowned in the water
I was left in the rain
So I stay dry
You pulled me tight to your shoulder
Turned my head sideways
I guess I gave in the moment
When I gave up the race
I'll tell you why
Oh I promised that I'd
Keep to myself this time
But I can't help the way I feel
And if you knew how hard I tried
To keep you off my mind
You'd know exactly why I'm here
I get the calls from my mama
Her worry bleeds into mine
She says you're just like my father
Gonna leave me behind
I built a wall in his absense
I never learned how to trust
And I gave into habit
When I pushed me off
So pull me in
Oh I promised that I'd
Keep to myself this time
But I can't help the way I feel
And if you knew how hard I tried
To keep you off my mind
You'd know exactly why I'm here
Don't keep me waiting, no
Don't keep me waiting on ya
Don't keep me waiting, no
Don't keep me waiting on ya
Oh I promised that I'd
Keep to myself this time
But I can't help the way I feel
And if you knew how hard I tried
To keep you off my mind
You'd know exactly why I'm here
You'd know exactly why I'm here
