Lyrics
[Verse 1]
You’re standing in the doorway
Shoes still on
Eyes on the floor
You say you’re tired of “maybe”
You’re tired of keeping score
Same excuses on my tongue
Like a tape I always play
Watch you swallow one more sigh
As I promise I’ll change someday
[Pre-Chorus]
But someday’s just a word I hide behind
While you’re running out of reasons to be kind
[Chorus]
If you stay
I won’t waste another minute of your faith
I’ve been stuck inside the habits that I hate
Made you carry all the weight
All the weight
If you stay
I’ll unlearn the selfish boy I used to be
Show you every hidden part you gave to me
Baby
I will meet you halfway
If you stay
If you stay (oh, if you stay)
[Verse 2]
You’ve memorized my silence
Know the cracks in every wall
You’ve been giving second chances
Till it feels like none at all
I’ve been busy being sorry
Never fixing what I break
Now I see you packing up
Every little piece of grace
[Pre-Chorus]
If this is just another empty line
I’ll be watching your taillights leave me behind
[Chorus]
If you stay
I won’t waste another minute of your faith
I’ve been stuck inside the habits that I hate
Made you carry all the weight
All the weight
If you stay
I’ll unlearn the selfish boy I used to be
Show you every hidden part you gave to me
Baby
I will meet you halfway
If you stay
If you stay (please stay)
[Bridge]
I don’t want to wake up
To your picture in a frame
Telling friends I lost you
’Cause I never really changed
So I’m throwing out my pride
Learning how to say your name
Like it’s more than just a comfort
It’s the reason that I change (yeah)
[Chorus]
If you stay
I won’t waste another minute of your faith
I’ve been stuck inside the habits that I hate
Made you carry all the weight
All the weight
If you stay
I’ll unlearn the selfish boy I used to be
Show you every hidden part you gave to me
Baby
I will meet you halfway
If you stay
If you stay (oh, if you stay)
If you stay (I’ll change)
If you stay

Style
pop, Pop ballad with male vocals over warm piano and subtle plucked guitars, building into a mid-tempo groove with deep pads, tom fills, and stacked harmonies on the hook. First verse intimate and close-mic; chorus widens with airy synths and reverb, final repeat adds octave vocal, ad-libs, and a lift in the drum energy for a cathartic feel.
