you can stay

something's wrong
i can see it in you
face to the ground
weighted down

enveloped by
your blinding fog
where all you see
is what's wrong

you don't need to go anywhere
you don't need to do anything
you don't need to get rid of it
and you don't need to keep it

you can stay
stay just the way you are
as long as you need
you can stay

they'll tell you
let it go
you'll feel better
yes, you know
but it's easy
to sing that song
when you're on the outside
of something wrong

so just stay
stay where you are
for as long as you need
until you don't need
you can stay

and when you're ready
to walk away
from something's wrong
you'll find I'm still there
just like all along

so just stay
stay forever
or just a beat
for as long as you need
until you don't need
you can stay
