Will You Stay?
Help yourself up, while you push me down.
What do you think, why would you care?
My sorry eyes can see, how I slowly drown.
If you just give up, you'll see whats fair.
You threw me away before we could start.
I put my trust into you, but it was all a lie.
My chest was torn open, as you reach for my heart.
I drowned away all my sense, as I heard the goodbye.
I wonder how am I supposed to feel.
Thats what I get, when I let you in.
Could this happen, could this be real?
Hoping for you, hoping our love can win.
When it rains, I call for your voice.
I hang my head, when you leave me.
My tears fall, this cannot be the choice.
You got what you wanted, so leave me be.
Does it feel good to laugh in my face?
Will you stay to watch my dreams come true?
Though I try so hard, your thought cannot erase.
Will you stay, and see my life without you?
I convinced myself, I was the reason why.
Yet could you care, if I just disappeared.
I never saw it coming, I could just die.
When you left, it was the worst I feared.
I cannot see, how could you do it?
You took my hand, and you stole away my years.
I couldn't see, just how your love didn't fit.
You got all you could take, so to you I say cheers.
I sink down, into the darkest light.
Trying to take me down, is your only thought.
I'm so sick and tired, of looking at you tonight.
I've gone away, for you loved when we fought.
My chance has been taken, as you leave my heart breakin.
