Blue October

Stay With Me
The first time I got muddy I was a young boy Ten years old I got lost in the woods in the middle of the night, in the dark and rainy cold Young and damp a summer camp I was a funny little sleepwalker So I didn't think to tie myself to that oak tree before I fell asleep When I stood up that night not knowing all the while Where I'd end up when I wake up having slept walk for a mile I found myself running barefoot almost naked through the trees I was in my underwear with branches slapping on my face and knees I ran on top the rocks wet cedar thorns and moss feeling nothing Then the moon rose up and I realized I was lost Nowhere close to home for the first time I was alone Then the lightning struck and the thunder shook and I called out for my mom Give me some attention that's what I yelled into the night Please come down and help me show me sympathetic light I need someone close to me If only for a minute I'm not afraid of the dark SongtexteI'm just scared of what's in it Stay with me I had a dream last night that someone was taking my air from me Creating ten times as many problems as any human can solve They said you don't try hard enough and shoes don't always come in pairs They love you when they make you look good but despise you behind closed doors With vague goals and deep cracks it told me I can do better than that Living in the shadow of someone's light that won't turn on You see misery isn't everything And I'm still learning that Just give me the chance to turn my light back on Stay with me In the words of my father Yes I'm good enough Yes I'm good enough Light the heart of my father Yes I'm good enough Yes I'm good enough With the hope and strength of an ocean tide Stay with me Aus Songtexte Mania
