You seemed like you were going to play a lead role But it wasn't so And I built you the perfect niche here Only for it to be left abandoned But stay why don't you Please don't disappear Stay why don't you I want you here And I want to support you like the beams that keep a house from falling in And I want to lend you a hand while I give you all these promises But you won't let me and it's hurtful But beyond hurting I flame up in anger How can you refuse my help? How can you not see that I'm here for you? Always here for you And then the numbness settles in Because really all I want is for you to stay You want to do this on your own and I'm all for independence But remember that you're not alone you're with me, you're with us we're with you So stay why don't you Please don't disappear Stay why don't you I want you here Stay Please stay
