Stay Home

So many days and nights of my life escape.
It always fades away.
It always fades away with time.
(The color fades away. The color fades away.)
And it's this feeling that has me going nowhere, gaining nothing at all.
If anyone should find you staring up at the unending sky.
What if I was smiling and running into your arms?
(What would you say?)
Would you see then what I see now?
(Keep running! Keep shining on!)
I'd put my ear against your heart to keep the beat forever
(Keep running) and hum it like my favorite song.
And it's safe to say life seems hopeless. (We are all alone.)
And it's this feeling that brings me closer and closer, closer to the end.
(Keep running, keep running, keep running, keep shining...)
Before this home becomes your casket.
And you're buried six feet beneath the ground.
And you're buried six feet beneath the ground.
Those starry eyes have lost their shine.
There's reason why I've made it this far without you.
You had your shot; this one's mine.
I'm taking aim.
Those starry eyes have lost their shine.
There's reason why I've made it this far without you.
You had your shot; this one's mine.
I'm taking aim to pull the trigger.
