Stay Lyrics - Flyleaf

Green light, 7-Eleven 

You stop in for a pack of cigarettes 

You don't smoke, don't even want to 

Hey now, check your change 

Dressed up like a car crash 

Your wheels are turning but you're upside down 

You say when he hits you, you don't mind 

Because when he hurts you, you feel alive 

Oh no, is that what it is? 

Red lights, gray morning 

You stumble out of a hole in the ground 

A vampire or a victim 

It depends on who's around 

You used to stay in to watch the adverts 

You could lip sync to the talk shows 

And if you look, you look through me 

And when you talk, you talk at me 

And when I touch you, you don't feel a thing 

If I could stay then the night would give you up 

Stay, and the day would keep its trust 

Stay, and the night would be enough 

Faraway, so close 

Up with the static and the radio 

With satellite television 

You can go anywhere 

Miami, New Orleans, London, Belfast, and Berlin 

And if you listen I can't call 

And if you jump, you just might fall 

And if you shout I'll only hear you 

If I could stay then the night would give you up 

Stay, then the day would keep its trust 

Stay, with the demons you drowned 

Stay, with the spirit I found 

Stay, and the night would be enough 

Three o'clock in the morning 

It's quiet and there's no one around 

Just the bang and the clatter 

As an angel runs to ground 

Just the bang and the clatter 

As an angel hits the ground
