Are you awake?

Was I too loud?

Are you warm enough?

You won't even look at me

Can you tell me why

The door was open?

I walked in

Thought I woke you up

Where is all this coming from

I hate to see you cry

But I'm not a criminal

Let's just say I'm cynical

So we can agree to disagree

I mean literally

How would I benefit

When it's so fucking evident

That I'd never lie to you

Even if I had time to

Stay

It wasn't enough to stay

You were always afraid

Of all the things you became

You set it up to watch me fall

I considered you my friend

Now you don't even care for me

Enough to make this right

So close the door on all our dreams

And never hurt again

Or you can just start making sense

And never wonder why

Trust is difficult

More like hypocritical

For me to believe that I could be

Unconditionally loved

When you're on the mend

And so lost in all you cannot change

For the greater part of five years wasted

Stay

(And I cannot get back that time)

It wasn't enough to stay

(Give me a reason I should try)

You were always afraid

(And I can't find the words to say)

Of all the things you became

(To get us through this and I know it's best to walk away)

And we both ask for too much now

Don't leave me, never leave me

But I no longer see a way out

And I must let you down

Stay

It wasn't enough to stay

You were always afraid

Of all the things you became
