Stay lyrics - Alkaline Trio

Things have been getting pretty rough around here

No coffee cups flying 'round the room

Just daggers born from tears

Let's try to crawl out from under our breath

We can never break up, so I'll love you to death

The man I'd become was so comfortably dumb

I believe you could mean it, but you're not having fun

And I'm sorry

I learned to breathe I guess some time ago

But just recently I learned what it means to take it slow

I'm lousy with excuses and you know I love to swear

So goddammit, I swear to whatever's out there

That I love you more now than I ever have, so

Let's pick another day to call it quits and walk away

Let's find some other time to break down

The storm has gone and blown on through

Shake off the darkness and I will too

You might leave me still, but not today

For now, can we just stay?

Can we just stay?

You would think by now that I'd be fine

Ya' know, like really stretching out

But it would all be lies

I'm no longer in control of my own shoes

There they go

Quickly running out of booze

Drinking to kill myself to live without you

Over there, where I still stare

Sometimes

Let's pick another day to call it quits and walk away

Let's find some other time to break down

The storm has gone and blown on through

Shake off the darkness and I will too

You might leave me still, but not today

For now, can we just stay?

Can we just stay?

For now, can we just stay?

Can we just stay?

For now, can we just stay?
