Stay With Me

matchstick fire
to burn through the halls
not to nod to certainty
i want the walls to hear me
i want you bring this back
make it real
as real as can be
don't you leave
stay with me

for what it had to lose
the cause that leaves us wanting
i know you heard the same things
distance from the clock
and it hangs before our eyes
like a cold hollow that beckons
i wish i could follow
matters to unfold
it was too soon

sometimes it had to be the silence
falling on deaf ears
won't you remember
if only
if only you'd remember
that things had to be
soo close to our hands
what we lost won't be forgotten
destiny, the fate of you and me

i wouldn't have to lose everything
things would have to feel
to be real
i couldn't let this be
don't take her from me
stay with me
