Whitsson - Stay

I think this just might be rock bottom
It's a place we've been scared to touch
We've been holding our breath
Hoping that our good intentions would be enough

Some stay and some go running
Leaving nothing in their wake but pure destruction
Pieces to pick up
But we can pick them up faster if there's the two of us

So I'm telling you to stay
Don't you dare think about what it'd be like if you went away
It'd be worse
I'd be worse
We'd be worse
Don't you realize what staying is worth to me, babe
I'm telling you to stay

You've told me things that were hard to say
So let me take the blame from you now
I'll be holding my breath
Till I know that we've both made it safely out

Some stay and some go running
Leaving nothing in their wake but pure destruction
Leaving is easy
But then what about everything we'd be missing

So I'm telling you to stay
Don't you dare think about what it'd be like if you went away
It'd be worse
I'd be worse
We'd be worse
Don't you realize what staying is worth to me, babe
I'm telling you to stay

There's hope swimming up from the bottom
When I think about how it'd be your hand that I'd be holding
When you're tired, I can be the strong one
When you're tired, I can be the strong one
When you're tired, I can be the strong one
When you're tired, I can be the strong one

So I'm telling you to stay
(When you're tired, I can be the strong one
When you're tired, I can be the strong one)
Don't you dare think about what it'd be like if you went away
(When you're tired, I can be the strong one
When you're tired, I can be the strong one)
It'd be worse
I'd be worse
We'd be worse
(When you're tired, I can be the strong one
When you're tired, I can be the strong one)
Don't you realize what staying is worth to me, babe
I'm telling you to stay
(When you're tired, I can be the strong one
When you're tired, I can be the strong one)

There's hope swimming up from the bottom
(When you're tired, I can be the strong one
When you're tired, I can be the strong one)
When I think about how it'd be your hand that I'd be holding
(When you're tired, I can be the strong one
When you're tired, I can be the strong one)

It'd be worse
I'd be worse
We'd be worse
Don't you realize what staying is worth to me, babe
I'm telling you to stay
Mmm
