I’m Serious (Remastered)

Verse 1: Why won’t you stay when I’m baring my soul? You’re mad at me now, but I’ve lost control. I’m not playing games, I’m telling the truth, But every word just cuts us in two. I see the fire, I feel the heat, Your silence is louder than words could speak. I’m standing here, my heart in my hands, But you’re walking away like you don’t understand. Chorus: I’m serious, can’t you see? This isn’t a joke, it’s the realest me. Don’t turn your back, don’t walk away, I’m fighting for us, begging you to stay. Verse 2: You think I’m lying, just wasting your time, But love like this is a mountain to climb. Every mistake, I’ve owned it all, But you build these walls, and I watch them fall. I’m not perfect, but neither are you, We’ve both got scars we’re trying to undo. I’m here, I’m trying—why can’t you see? The only thing I want is you and me. Chorus: I’m serious, can’t you see? This isn’t a joke, it’s the realest me. Don’t turn your back, don’t walk away, I’m fighting for us, begging you to stay. Bridge: I know you’re mad, I feel your pain, But leaving now will leave a stain. On everything we’ve built, everything we’ve done, Why tear it apart before it’s begun? Chorus (Reprise): I’m serious, can’t you see? This isn’t a joke, it’s the realest me. Don’t turn your back, don’t walk away, I’m fighting for us, begging you to stay. Outro: Why won’t you stay? I’m right here. I’ll fight your doubt, I’ll face your fear. I’m serious, I’m not backing down, But I can’t hold on if you’re not around.
