[Verse 1]
You’re on the edge of the driveway
Keys in your hand like a dare
You say you’re tired of the rewinds
Tired of breathing my same air
Your shadow’s bent on the wall
Like it’s already halfway gone
You ask me
“What do you want?”
My throat just locks
[Chorus]
If I stay
Will you hate me in the morning?
If you stay
Will we only keep on burning?
Are we just
Two cheap promises fraying?
If I walk away right now
Would you chase me
Or be glad I’m breaking?
If I stay
If I stay
[Verse 2]
You trace the crack in the drywall
Say it’s us
Split down the seam
Every fight leaves another
Little fault line in between
You laugh
But your eyes look tired
Like you’ve packed up in your head
I’m reaching out for an answer
You’re reaching out for the end
[Chorus]
If I stay
Will you hate me in the morning?
If you stay
Will we only keep on burning?
Are we just
Two cheap promises fraying?
If I walk away right now
Would you chase me
Or be glad I’m breaking?
If I stay
If I stay
[Bridge]
Say it straight
Do you want me
Or the version that you built?
All this weight
In the silence
Hanging heavy on the guilt
I’m so mad
That I love you
That I still would choose this ache
If you asked me one more time
I’d still say “please stay”
[Chorus]
If I stay
Will you hate me in the morning?
If you stay
Will we only keep on burning?
Are we just
Two cheap promises fraying?
If I walk away right now
Would you chase me
Or be glad I’m breaking?
If I stay
If I stay
If I stay
Would you stay?
