Caleb Hyles - Stay lyrics
[Caleb Hyles - Stay lyrics]
I'm caught between the future and right now
Of what’s to come and how to smile now
Sing me a song with lyrics so profound
Is that too much to ask you, anyhow?
My way with words is rather
Crude and blunt at best
I traumatize your heart
Than ask for sentiment
The other side of this pillow reeks
Of salt and spoiled dreams
My arrogance avoiding guilt, "no way
That wasn't me!"
To my right and left
I find a common thread we missed
A chance to reconcile
To praise what makes us different
We do not need one's validation
To know we exist
Perpentually bent to run whenever
We should stay
So stitch me up
I’ve had enough of bleeding my heart dry
You will pull through, you always do
I'm not a savior this time
For all to see and what will be
My glory days are gone
Replaced with more, "time's" just rewards
Understanding for all
I'll be there for you
'Cause, I no longer need for me
I rest my soul in something else
That we will always try to run away from
I cannot deny that I've
Neglected my own wants
I've questioned long enough
I'm unprepared for what’s to come
But, if honestly is the best policy
Then I’ll be damned
For holding my own tongue and
Sparing words has made amends
Friend and lover
And then, companion to the end the end
To my right and left
I find a common thread we missed
(I'll be there for you)
A chance to reconcile
To praise what makes us different
(’Cause, I no longer need for me)
We do not need one's validation
To know we exist
(I rest my soul in something else)
Perpentually bent to run whenever
We should stay
(That we will always try to run away from)
Of what’s to come and how to smile now
Sing me a song with lyrics so profound
Is that too much to ask you, anyhow?
My way with words is rather
Crude and blunt at best
I traumatize your heart
Than ask for sentiment
The other side of this pillow reeks
Of salt and spoiled dreams
My arrogance avoiding guilt, "no way
That wasn't me!"
To my right and left
I find a common thread we missed
A chance to reconcile
To praise what makes us different
We do not need one's validation
To know we exist
Perpentually bent to run whenever
We should stay
So stitch me up
I’ve had enough of bleeding my heart dry
You will pull through, you always do
I'm not a savior this time
For all to see and what will be

Replaced with more, "time's" just rewards
