Linger
Wait, don't go yet
You still haven't seen the very best of me yet
Everything you've ever wanted
I can give it to you on a silver platter
Before your insenstivity destroyed my dreams
I dreamt of staying with you for eternity
But now I'd die not to be seen
Give anything to take another form than this marionette
Dancing on your strings
I'm sorry, I lied to you
I might love you too much
This fear that you won't stay and only your ghost will
Linger around forever
Is going to make me cause a scene
I feel it coming and I always did
I've never felt as unmoored as I feel now
I've fallen behind on everyone just because you got in my way
When it comes to you
I can never live in the moment
Now isn't forever
Your perfection fuels a perpetual greed
I fear your departure like the plague
For your presence is my life
I'd cling to you, willing to forsake all
Just to hold your hand
So you can't walk away
From the paradise I've prepared for you
When the sun dares to kiss your skin
I come undone
And when it sets, I can't rest knowing
Dreams caress your sleep
Do you know what you've done?
You've left a wound never truly whole
I'd betray everyone only for your ghost to never linger around
I'm sorry, I lied to you
I might love you too much
This fear that you won't stay and only your ghost will
Linger around forever
Is going to make me cause a scene
I feel it coming and I always did
Don't you remember when everything was simpler?
When you were telling me about your dreams
Of sharing secrets and of coffee after sex
When nothing mattered because we were together
Nothing matters when we're together
What matters to you when we're together?
You still haven't seen the very best of me yet
Everything you've ever wanted
I can give it to you on a silver platter
Before your insenstivity destroyed my dreams
I dreamt of staying with you for eternity
But now I'd die not to be seen
Give anything to take another form than this marionette
Dancing on your strings
I'm sorry, I lied to you
I might love you too much
This fear that you won't stay and only your ghost will
Linger around forever
Is going to make me cause a scene
I feel it coming and I always did
I've never felt as unmoored as I feel now
I've fallen behind on everyone just because you got in my way
When it comes to you
I can never live in the moment
Now isn't forever
Your perfection fuels a perpetual greed
I fear your departure like the plague
For your presence is my life
I'd cling to you, willing to forsake all
Just to hold your hand
So you can't walk away
From the paradise I've prepared for you
When the sun dares to kiss your skin
I come undone
And when it sets, I can't rest knowing
Dreams caress your sleep
Do you know what you've done?
You've left a wound never truly whole
I'd betray everyone only for your ghost to never linger around
I'm sorry, I lied to you
I might love you too much
This fear that you won't stay and only your ghost will
Linger around forever
Is going to make me cause a scene
I feel it coming and I always did
Don't you remember when everything was simpler?
When you were telling me about your dreams
Of sharing secrets and of coffee after sex
When nothing mattered because we were together
Nothing matters when we're together
What matters to you when we're together?
