Stay
Hold me in your arms
Distract me with your charms
Keep the world at bay
Go
Take away my light
Leave me in the night
Quiet, and alone
It doesn't really matter, if you stay, or if you go
The world, it just moves faster, or it starts, to move slow
And I'm tired of it all revolving around you
Guess I'm craving something different and new
Go to School
Learn what you don't know
Try your best to grow
To make that money, babe
Go to Work
I've got to get a job
Relying on someone to pay the bills
Can be a drag
And I'm tired of it all leading to nothing
When every step forward is two steps back, you know
I just want something fun and worthwhile to do
Or at least a good distraction, like you
Change
Make my world brand new
Show me what to do
To make it get better
Make
Make me beautiful
Successful and well-loved
Charming and clever
Wait
Just give me some time
To breathe, to free my mind
Hold my hand once in a while
Give
Let just one thing go right
Take away my fright
Make it get better
Stay
Go
School
Work
Change
Make it get better
Because I'm one step closer to dying here
And one step further from caring
Please, make it get better
