I Can’t Stay Lyrics by At The Wayside

The Breakdown and the Fall

2017

Verse 1:
Another voice in my head, another whisper again
These nights it just keeps happening
Another choice to be made, another twist of my fate
These days I wake up wishing
Pre-chorus:
I was somewhere else
That I was someone better than myself
Chorus:
This must be what its like to be drowning in air
(This is how it feels to be afraid of fear)
This is nowhere else to get away from this place
(This is how I know that I can't stay here)
Verse 2:
Another evening away, another smile that I faked
To get through till the day went down
Another morning I'm dead, at least I felt that I had
Stopped breathing in the night
Pre-chorus:
But I'm believing still
That I'll be someone better than myself
Chorus:
This must be what its like to be drowning in air
(This is how it feels to be afraid of fear)
This is nowhere else to get away from this place
(This is how I know that I can't stay here)
Bridge:
No I know I can't stay here
(Guitar solo)
Chorus:
This must be what its like to be drowning in air
(This is how it feels to be afraid of fear)
This is nowhere else to get away from this place
(This is how I know that I can't stay here)
Outro:
No I can't stay, no I can't stay here
No I can't stay, no I can't stay here
No I can't stay, no I can't stay here
No I can't stay, no I can't stay here
