STAY Lyrics by Hampton Calamity

DESPERATION

2016

[Hook: Harper Tempest]
In the attic, dust and dreams
I find your laughter in moonbeams
Summer nights, we shared our schemes
Now echoes haunt my silent seams
Old postcards stacked, words left unsent
In faded ink, our time was spent
[Post-Hook: Jynx Royale]
I wear your jacket, my heart bent
Each thread a tale, each stitch a hint
We carved our names in that old tree
In the quiet aftermath
When shadows linger longer
And echoes of laughter
[Verse 1: Blaze McKnight]
I still see you in morning light
We'd laugh and dance, everything felt right
Shared dreams and secrets late at night
Now silence falls; it’s just not bright
Strawberry fields where we would play
You’d twirl my heart, chase clouds away
Now every song just feels so grey
I wish you’d come back, even for a day
Your laughter echoed in my mind
Like whispers lost, no peace to find
Every old joke that we designed
Now haunts my heart, so unaligned
I close my eyes, I hear your voice
In every tear, I lose my choice
[Refrain: Koda Vee, FoxPoint, Cole Cyphert & Falkner Saint]
Wake me up when the tears go away
I do not want to feel this pain today
Why didn't you stay?
But in the shadows, I still rejoice
For love remains, we had no noise
[Verse 2: Koda Vee]
These old walls tell our secrets
Your laughter still echoes, I regret
The summers where we never fret
Now I wake, and you’re not yet
The porch swings still creak at night
Remembering that last sunset light
You said we would never lose sight
But shadows now cover my flight
We drove down those winding roads
Singing songs, just swapping loads
I held your hand, our hearts explode
[Hook: Harper Tempest]
In the attic, dust and dreams
I find your laughter in moonbeams
Summer nights, we shared our schemes
Now echoes haunt my silent seams
Old postcards stacked, words left unsent
In faded ink, our time was spent
[Post-Hook: Jynx Royale]
I wear your jacket, my heart bent
Each thread a tale, each stitch a hint
We carved our names in that old tree
In the quiet aftermath
When shadows linger longer
And echoes of laughter
[Verse 3: Jynx Royale]
I still feel you in every song
Walking with me where we belong
Laughing at the memories strong
But now the melody feels wrong
We used to dance beneath the stars
Counting dreams and sharing our scars
[Verse 4: Horacio Sensatio]
Late-night talks about life and Mars
Now silence echoes, leaving me far
I found your note in my old book
Took a deep breath and had to look
Each word a spark, each line it shook
I wish you’d stayed, I wish you’d cook
Every coffee shop feels so bare
You’re in my thoughts, you’re everywhere
[Refrain: Koda Vee, FoxPoint, Cole Cyphert & Falkner Saint]
Wake me up when the tears go away
I do not want to feel this pain today
Why didn't you stay?
[Instrumental Outro]
