Stay
I don't know why I keep coming back to you
When I know there is no place to come back to
To shine onto a life beaten black and blue
Words turning into ghosts to haunt you
If you could stay
Would you stay?
For the last time
What would you say?
Trade your leaving
For something else
But you...
I don't know why I keep calling out your name
When I know my voice will not reach your ears
Your lights are fading to black while I am feeling blue
The deafening sound of armies in retreat
If you could stay
Would you stay?
For the last time
What would you say?
Trade your leaving
For something else
But you...
All I can do
Is less
Than I should
To lighten my chest
And I've no further to fall I've given you all
If you could stay
Would you stay?
For the last time
What would you say?
Trade your leaving
For something else
But you...
When I know there is no place to come back to
To shine onto a life beaten black and blue
Words turning into ghosts to haunt you
If you could stay
Would you stay?
For the last time
What would you say?
Trade your leaving
For something else
But you...
I don't know why I keep calling out your name
When I know my voice will not reach your ears
Your lights are fading to black while I am feeling blue
The deafening sound of armies in retreat
If you could stay
Would you stay?
For the last time
What would you say?
Trade your leaving
For something else
But you...
All I can do
Is less
Than I should
To lighten my chest
And I've no further to fall I've given you all
If you could stay
Would you stay?
For the last time
What would you say?
Trade your leaving
For something else
But you...
