Lyrics

Stay

Ready or not
And you never are, I get so far so fast
No bell before the blast
You're holding the light
And already I burn steady, white with rage
Like I've been on fire for days

They call it the blue
And I'm out of there black as a bear and you
Don't know what else to do
But give me the slip
And I understand if you abandon ship and it
Always comes to this

But are you ever gonna stay?
You leave me shaking when you walk away
I don't excuse it and I can't explain
But I know that love can change a lot of things

I hit you like ice
And no wonder with what's under all I seem, gathering
In shadows and hides
And I can't say what it is or how it built so high
But it feels like fear so I
Fight or I fly
And I guess I am a fighter digging heels and spittin' fire
It's a lot for me to require and you'd have to be bold
To step into a storm and stand there naked and cold
But you could you know

And your breath brushed warm and light
Along my neck and down my spine
That's when you felt the fire die
