Stay Or Go

My heart is torn in two
I don't know what I want
A part of me wants to start anew
A part of me is scared of change
I know I should live my life
Try new experiences
Meet new people
But I don't want to leave
The ones I love behind
But I can hear opportunity knocking
The question is now
Do I answer it
Or turn and walk away
My heart is aching
At the choice I must make
I sit here and ponder
What should I do
The tears come and go
Crying because I want out of here
Crying because I can't leave home
Why must my heart
Be torn into two
I guess the only thing now
Is do I stay or do I go
