This Mad Desire - American Dream

Believe (I Wanted to Stay)

I want you to know that I'm not lonely
Even though sometimes I am alone
Deep in your heart you know that
You can always find me
Even when I am light-years from home
I make a point to only look forwards
Because you can never ever turn back
None of us is getting any younger
None of us is getting any younger

I wanted to stay
I wanted to believe
I wanted to stay
It was not my choice
Not my choice to leave

I know you have so many questions
And I know life it falls short on answers
I don't know why someone's father is gone
I don't know why some mothers die alone
I want you to know that life's too fucking short
To do anything you don't love
Make your dreams come true
And I will promise you
I'll be forever with you

I wanted to stay
I wanted to believe
I wanted to stay
It was not my choice
Not my choice to leave

I always try to forgive and to forget
But it gets so hard when you can't live with it
Some people I've seen they get wiser with age
And other people just get older
And some lash out in a rage
Some people live lives for others that they want to impress
And at the end of the day it's all regrets
So I say to you now that there is no time for later
I say to you now that there is no time for later

I wanted to stay
I wanted to believe
I wanted to stay
It was not my choice
Not my choice to leave
