Lyrics

[Verse 1]

I’m scared you’re gonna leave

Everyone leaves, you know

I watch the door too hard

Like it owes me a show

I keep your hoodie folded

Like it might make you stay

I smile and say I’m fine

Then I fall apart that way

[Pre-Chorus]

I’d do anything

To keep you near

Say my name slow

Make the doubt disappear

I love you too much

That part is true

But I keep a dark mirror

Where I meet myself too

[Chorus]

Be the one that stays

Hold me when I shake

Don’t let go today

Be the one that stays

I love you more than words

I hate me more than I say

[Verse 2]

I count the quiet minutes

When your phone goes still

My mind turns every maybe

Into something it can kill

You look at me so gentle

Like I’m worth the fight

But I don’t trust soft hands

When I’ve lived on goodbye

[Pre-Chorus]

I’d do anything

To keep you near

Say my name slow

Make the doubt disappear

I love you too much

That part is true

But I keep a dark mirror

Where I meet myself too

[Chorus]

Be the one that stays

Hold me when I shake

Don’t let go today

Be the one that stays

I love you more than words

I hate me more than I say

[Bridge]

If I get loud, stay close

If I go cold, stay warm

I’m learning how to trust

In the middle of a storm

I’m not proud of the cracks

I’m not proud of the fear

But if you can see me through it

Maybe I can get near

[Final Chorus]

Be the one that stays

Hold me when I shake

Don’t let go today

Be the one that stays

I love you more than words

I hate me more than I say

Be the one that stays

If you’re still here tonight

Maybe I can learn to stay

I’m scared you’re gonna leave. Everyone leaves. I just want you to finally be the one that stays. I’d do anything to keep you. I love you more than words can explain. But hate myself just as much
