An Empty Orchestra - Beg to Stay (feat. Johnny MaDman)

Most of my friends are on drugs
I wonder if me sober is enough
I question myself when I see my friends shine
Why can't I be happy when I'm not the light that's in everyone's eyes?
Everyone's eyes
Everyone's eyes
Wondering why birds don't leave
Don't they get tired of the same old trees?
With their wings and the wind they could escape this any day
I bet it's the same reason that I stay so close to home, I beg to stay
I beg to stay
I beg to stay
The roads don't plant my feet
It's the names of the streets
I find myself clipping my wings
They're just in the way if I don't ever leave
There's something wrong with the way that I don't hold my head up high
I look to the ground and feel safe, when I see our feet are side by side
By side by side
By side by side
The roads don't plant my feet
It's the names of the streets
There's comfort in your crease
I'm scared I'll think differently
There's a whole world out there for me
Got dreams of the wealth and the fame and glory
Oh, I know you want better surely
You'll never get far if you're actin' lonely
I've been tryna spread my wings
They've been shootin' at the sky
Say you wanna be with me
All I do is wonder why
I've been fighting with my head
Cause I never learned to fly
I've been taking all these drugs
Just to eat away at time
Maybe they've been taking me
And the light inside my eyes
Road is getting pretty long
And I'm tired from the ride
I just wanna leave, no, I'm not ok
All I really need's you begging me to stay
We're side by side, its comfortable
Despite the waves and undertow
I feel them crash, it's all I know
I grab your hands and touch your soul
This world is dark and full of fears
I feel I'm stronger when you're here
I try to find the words to say
"I need you here, I beg to stay"
