We say, "Alright" You need an "okay" all the same You don't belong with them And still, you stay If I could say When you were small That you would grow to be so bold Don't pray, turn away ♪ Flew in over the clouds that couldn't catch me if I fell And I told them I would call, but there isn't much to tell 'Cause I'm always scared of leaving and then when I arrive I'm distracted by existences now parallel to mine I'm not afraid to die, more so to be alive I know in this and more I'm not alone And I never heard you scream before the night I couldn't breathe You tell me now you thought that I was gone You thought that I was gone You thought that I was gone I was five and I was gone ♪ She's sitting down beside me I'm turning down my page But it silently decided that I'll stay I'm hers until the sun comes up on someone else's trees When I'm clean, I'll move along I'm not afraid to die, more so to be alive I know in this and more I'm not alone And I never heard you scream before the night I couldn't breathe You tell me now you thought that I was gone You thought that I was gone You thought that I was gone Sometimes I wish I'd gone ♪ Please, don't be long Don't let this go on and on Please, don't stay in me ♪ Please, don't be long Don't let this go on and on
