Why Won't You Stay

Will this night fulfill all the promises



And bury us in peace?



Will it leave us free and forgetful



Or at least bring some sleep?



Your eyes don't catch the little things



As they narrow on your fall



I'm checking your pulse 'cause you're so quiet



I'm kissing you but you don't feel it



Why do you do this to me?



Showing me all that I'm good for



Is to watch you sleep



As lifeless as an angel



She was the most beautiful cloud



That ever passed before the face of a girl



Seems like nothing is too good for this life



Yes, some things are too good for this world



And our names and our faces



Well, they're just spare change



In memory of a soul



Kept dropping spare change



Why won't you stay?



Why won't you stay?



Why won't you stay?



Why won't you stay?



In memory of a little girl



Who was far too much in love with the world



And who didn't really wanna stick around



For the end



Why won't you stay?



Why won't you stay?



Why won't you stay?



Why won't you stay?
