Stay Lyrics by The Broken View

On The Mend

2021

[Verse 1: The Broken View]
Are you awake
Was I too loud
Are you warm enough
You won't even look at me
Can you tell me why
The door was open
I walked in
Thought I woke you up
Where is all this coming from
I hate to see you cry
But I'm not a criminal
Let's just say I'm cynical
So we can agree to disagree
I mean literally
How would I benefit
When it's so fucking evident
That I'd never lie to you
Even if I had time to
[Chorus: The Broken View]
Stay
It wasn't enough to stay
You were always afraid
Of all the things you became
[Verse 2: Clara Adelaide]
You set it up to watch me fall
I considered you my friend
Now you don't even care for me
Enough to make this right
So close the door on all our dreams
And never hurt again
Or you can just start making sense
And never wonder why
Trust is difficult
More like hypocritical
For me to believe that I could be
Unconditionally loved
When you're on the mend
And so lost in all you cannot change
For the greater part of five years wasted
[Chorus: Both]
Stay
(And I cannot get back that time)
It wasn't enough to stay
(Give me a reason I should try)
You were always afraid
(And I can't find the words to say)
Of all the things you became
(To get us through this and I know it's best to walk away)
[Bridge: Both]
And we both ask for too much now
Don't leave me, never leave me
But I no longer see a way out
And I must let you down
[Chorus: Both]
Stay
It wasn't enough to stay
You were always afraid
Of all the things you became
