Stay

Verse 1

I'm scared that if I stare into your eyes, I might see your soul

Oh, I've done it once, but I can't give you my all

It hurts to see you cry like this, baby

But the truth is my heart doesn't belong

Pre-Chorus

And I’m walking this tightrope, afraid of the fall

Every step I take feels like losing it all

You deserve a love that’s steady, not fleeting

But my love's a ghost, always retreating

Chorus

Oh, I’m scared that if I stay, I might leave you hollow

I can feel your sadness sinking into my bones

I don't wanna break you, but I can't follow

Baby, my heart's not a place to call home

Verse 2

I feel the weight of every word left unsaid

Your love is alive, but I’m numb in my head

I wish I could be what you need, but I’m not

I’m a flicker of flame that burns too hot

Pre-Chorus

And I’m walking this tightrope, afraid of the fall

Every step I take feels like losing it all

You deserve a love that’s steady, not fleeting

But my love's a ghost, always retreating

Chorus

Oh, I’m scared that if I stay, I might leave you hollow

I can feel your sadness sinking into my bones

I don't wanna break you, but I can't follow

Baby, my heart's not a place to call home

Bridge

I see the hurt in your eyes, it's tearing me apart

But the longer I stay, the deeper the scars

I wish I could save you, but I’m the storm

I’ll leave you broken, tattered, and worn

Outro

Oh, I’m scared that if I stay, I might leave you hollow

Your love's too pure, but I’m too cold to borrow

I’ll walk away now, before I lose control

Baby, my heart's not a place to call home
