Built to Stay Lyrics by Paden

A Beginner’s Guide to Finding Your Place in This World

2021

Don't you think that I would have you figured out by now?
I can see in your eyes, you've already got your escape planned out
Don't act so surprised when you've answered to the same tide
All your life
I'll be your roots each time until you have more life to define
I don't mind if you come and go sometimes
You were never built to stay
And if it's what you need
You can promise anything
I know you were never built to stay
It's not like you to be content with all that lies at our feet
We were made to strive for the things that lie outside our reach
Always looking upwards
And I don't mind if you come and go sometimes
You were never built to stay
And if it's what you need
You can promise anything
I know you were never built to stay
You can come home
You can run
You can go where you like
I'll be all right
You can come home
You can run
You know I'll be just fine
You can come home
You can run
You can change your mind
Take your time
You can come home
You can run
You know I'll be just fine
And I don't mind if you come and go sometimes
You were never built to stay
And I don't mind if you come and go sometimes
You were never built to stay
(You can come home, you can come home, you can come home)
And if it's what you need
You can promise anything
You were never built to stay
(You can come home, you can come home, you can come home)
