Krissy Matthews - Gotta Stay, Gotta Leave

Don’t know where I’m gonna turn,
my backs right up against the wall.
Every bridge just seems to burn,
I’m heading headlong for a fall.
Don’t know where I’m gonna be,
in the deep or on the top.
I’ve lost all my fantasies,
and I can’t face another flop.

Gotta die and I’ve gotta live,
there ain’t no alternative.
Gotta hope and I gotta grieve,
gotta stay and I gotta leave.

Don’t know how it’s gonna play.
raw reversals just don’t work.
Can’t just watch time drift away,
have to say it really hurts.
Don’t know how it’s gonna read,
do I run or just give up.
Scared to see my future bleed,
drinking from a broken cup.

Got to cool but need the heat,
all those fools out on the street.
Got to fly but got to rest,
cause not many pass the test.
Got to swim or got to drown,
hit the waves with my big sound.
Gotta hope and gotta grieve,
gotta stay and gotta leave.
