Stay Now

Stay now Here Where we are Girl, stay here Stay now Here now Sure this place is.... Well you know But it's home Long before me HER name swims through the air Choking smoke everywhere I can't breathe I can't see She makes them all kneel Makes them smile What happened here I'm asking all the while I've never even seen HER But HER photographs Float around my head Never talked to HER But they ask me about HER Tell me all about HER Everything about HER This place is haunted And it doesn't even know it The name of the town Should be changed to HER now Here I am I stand A stranger in this place Only leave shallow steps Maybe no one will notice Don't step too deep Too deep Don't step too deep They won't notice if I Don't step too deep This place is haunted And it doesn't even know it No, Stay now Here girl Stay here Here now
