Stay with Me
The first time I got muddy
I was a young boy, ten years old
I got lost in the woods in the middle of the night
In the dark and rainy cold
Young and damp, a summer camp
I was a funny little sleepwalker
I didn't think to tie myself to that oak tree before I fell asleep
When I stood up that night not knowing all of the while
Where I would end up when I wake up
Having slept-walked for a mile
I found myself running barefoot
Almost naked through those trees
I was in my underwear
With branches slapping on my face and knees
I ran on top the rocks, wet cedar thorns and moss
Feeling nothing, then the moon rose up and I realized I was lost
Then nowhere close to home for the first time I was alone
Then the lightning struck and the thunder shook
And I called out for my mom
Give me some attention, and that's what I yelled into the night
Please come down and help me, show me sympathetic light
'Cause I need someone close to me if only for a minute
I'm not afraid of the dark, I'm just scared of what's in it
Stay with me
Stay with me
Stay with me
Stay with me
I had a dream last night that someone was taking my air from me
Creating ten times as many problems as any human could solve
They said you don't try hard enough and shoes don't always come in pairs
They love you when you make them look good
But despise you behind closed doors
And with vague goals and deep cracks
It told me I can do better than that
Living in the shadow of someone's light that won't turn on
You see misery isn't everything, and I'm still learning that
Just give me the chance to turn my light back on
Stay with me
Stay with me
Stay with me
Stay with me
In the words of my father
Yes, I'm good enough
Yes, I'm good enough
Like the heart of my father
Yes, I'm good enough
Yes, I'm good enough, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
With hope and strength of an ocean tide
Stay with me
Stay with me
Stay with me
(Yes, I'm good enough)
(Yes, I'm good enough)
Stay with me
(Yes, I'm good enough)
(Yes, I'm good enough)
Yes, I'm good enough
