The old arcade is closing one machine is still humming— stay stay a little longer I kept my jacket on like I was leaving any minute one foot outside the room, one foot pretending to be in it everybody moved like they had somewhere they belonged I only knew the feeling when I heard it in the song If I stay, do I disappear? If I leave, was I ever here? I wanna stay where I don’t know how to stay I wanna belong without giving myself away Half of me is running, half of me is holding on to the sound after the speakers say the night is gone Stay, stay don’t make it mean forever Stay, stay maybe now is enough The old arcade is closing one machine is still humming— stay stay a little longer Not forever not surrender just until the word starts sounding different to me I wanna stay where I’m still learning how to stay I wanna belong and still be free to walk away Half of me is moving, half of me is holding on and for once they don’t have to decide which one is wrong Stay, stay maybe now is enough Maybe now— is enough The arcade is empty I’m already outside still hearing it...
