Stay with me, I'll take you there
You're holding me, baby don't be scared
I see myself beneath those tired eyes
Did I drag you down or did you fall inside?
Baby I know you a dreamer, but you been dreaming too much
And then you started believing that you was never enough
How could we travel new roads that we had never begun?
When you were sliding into someone you had never become
Everybody seems to be asking me lately
"Where's Alice?" And I'm like I ain't seeing my baby
How can you blame me for the thoughts that were driving her crazy?
When she could never see the light when the days were so rainy
But wait, 'don't pin this shit on her'
My brain be telling me that this she doesn't deserve
But my heart is confused, I would die again
Just to let my love play like a violin
Baby
Stay with me, I'll take you there
You're holding me, baby don't be scared
I see myself beneath those tired eyes
Did I drag you down or did you fall inside?
Yeah I remember when it was way back when
When it wasn't so fuckin' hard to catch a train back then
The clocks were running slower so I never felt lost
You made my hoodie so comfy and all my pillows so soft
Then you started thinking 'bout how life is bigger than this
Wonderland sinking under, Should I just kill her and live?
But fuck I had to choose to reinvent my life
So I said "come with me and pretend to cry"
Anybody asks then I'm not in my room
Singing sad songs couldn't bring me to you
Anybody asks then I'm not in my room
Singing sad songs so I don't have to live with truth, with the truth like
You always knew what it meant when you got me
You were there to block the trigger when they shot me
But this madness is killing us can you not see
So grab your shit off the hotel lobby
Yeah it's fine sometimes wordplay is gunplay
But my insides shake when the words come as earthquakes
Now I realize that life has never changed before
So maybe I was always Alice, you were the hole
Stay with me, I'll take you there
You're holding me, baby don't be scared
I see myself beneath those tired eyes
Did I drag you down or did you fall inside?
