Stay Don't go away The more we stay together The more I need you near Every goodbye feels heavier Every silence turns to fear I hate that fly circling 'round I want to crush it in my hand Nothing should break this fragile thing We barely understand I said it many times In many different ways You are my best friend forever But the words start feeling frayed I know I have it I wish you have it too But distance makes me question what I thought I knew How many times do we have to wait? How many nights before it's too late? I don't want to be alone I don't want to be alone Close attention, close attention Don't leave me on my own I don't want to be alone I don't want to be alone You're the only one who knows The only one I want close [half-time feel, palm-muted guitar] I hate to be alone And I am alone Even when you're here I feel you slipping gone Please come back Even if you don't feel the same I'll take whatever pieces you can give my name I don't want to be alone I don't want to be alone Close attention, close attention You're my only home I don't want to be alone I don't want to be alone Say you'll stay, say you'll stay Even if it's just for today Stay Don't go away
