Lyrics
Thoughts run around,
Running through my head.
Of everything I did,
And what I'd said.
You can't take it back,
Can't make it okay.
Everything is wrong,
Lying in the dark.
You watched as I tore,
My soul to shreds.
Dashed it against rocks,
Inside my head.
But maybe tomorrow,
In the light of day.
The pain of my life,
Will be lifted from me.
Stay with me,
I want you here with me,
To break this isolation.
So won?t you,
Stay with me.
Won't you,
Stay with me,
And break this isolation.
I'm caught in this cycle,
I can't break free.
My head won't let go,
Of what I've seen.
As all of my life's wrongs,
Roll into one.
It's like looking into,
The blackest sun.
You wait as I try,
To hold it back.
The flood of regret,
And embitterment.
So I hope tomorrow,
Will be a new day.
Where all of my burdens,
Will lift up from me.
Stay with me,
I want you here with me,
To break this isolation.
So won?t you,
Stay with me.
Won't you,
Stay with me,
And break this isolation.
