Stay

I've grown tired Dry and tired While I wait here on a son Or a daughter Or a life Or just one reason to go on But with who When and how Will my vanity take shape Or is it too late? Is it too late? Running in place I'll lose this short race On the back of a sadness I've had I tire of this pace And cannot erase the memory Of loves that you've had I hope in this case I won't about face And regress to a lust in our past In our past In our past In our past In our past Don't go Don't go Stay Don't go Don't go Stay Don't go Don't go Stay Don't go Don't go I won't fight Won't bat an eye As long as I have one freedom All the rest They are just tests To see if I will succumb To temptation (temptation) The present is brief The past too long And the future's Already gone With no children Yes no children And my bitterness is all that's left So I'm stuck with us and what you meant To me When we locked eyes for the first time I never imagined all this Your promiscuity confuses me and I judge you for all of it Odd enough it's a fact that although not as bad I found myself in the same shit Of course my arrogance blinds me of this So I stand on my soapbox and gaze at your sins Hoping they will disappear Hoping I will not care Hoping they will disappear Hoping I won't care Don't go Don't go Stay Don't go Don't go Stay Don't go Don't go Stay Don't go Don't go
