Stay
Which face do you see
and which one is me
I'm not sure if I know
I've been hiding my tears
Hiding for years
It's time I let go
(chorus)
I wanna be free
and I want you to see
I want you to know...the real me
If I told you my secrets
will you let me stay,
will you run away
If I showed you my weakness
will you let me stay,
will you run away ... I wanna know
What if I change
and what if I'm strange
Will you still care
and if I'm a hero
when I'm a zero
Will you be there ... for me then?
(chorus)
I wanna be free
and I want you to see
I want you to know...the real me
If I told you my secrets
will you let me stay,
will you run away
If I showed you my weakness
will you let me stay,
will you run away ... oh oh
(bridge)
Well I've never felt so alone
and all I've wanted is to be known
I'm not going to die this way
No No
If I told you my secrets
will you let me stay,
will you run away ... from me
If I showed you my weakness
will you let me stay,
will you run away ...
Don't run away (don't run away) No
Repeat 3x
Please don't run away
Don't run away - no, no, no
Don't run away
Don't run away
Won't you stay
Won't you stay
