Stick Around


Just a couple of unbelievers, yeah
Walking on the wrong side at night
She let me explore her body and live
My realities from the comfort of her mind

And I've never been anything but a shooting star, she said
You can make a wish but it won't come true

Never been one for much more than just
Coffee and cigarettes on rainy days
She made my shirt her canvas painted
With tears and makeup rolling off her face

And I would've done anything is what I always told myself
But in the end, I only cared about me

And all the blades you keep that cut so deep
You could've laid them all down today
But when the tide came in, you cut your losses
Boarded ship and sailed away
And there are people that still need you
And I am one
And I begged you and I begged you
To please stick around

All the blades you keep that cut so deep
You can lay them all down today
So when the tide comes in, don't cut your losses
Don't board that ship and sail away
And I will try my best to think of more
Than just myself
As I beg you and I beg you
To please stick around
