Why should I leave?
You don't think
That your voice is my sleeping pill
So stay, if you still care
Or else I'll search the night for a core of pain

I'm trying to get your attention by saying something
But attention is really your poison
When you say you believe me but you can't help it
When my veins wish we had the same blood
So I can color the dark world
Cause that's where I come from

I wish you wouldn't throw me away, I'm fragile, what if I break?
I wish you'd stay and listen to me, I'm just a child, isn't it a shame?
I wish I could read the peace in your eyes
But I see a storm when you don't want me
I wish you wouldn't look at me so often, is it trivial?
If you leave, where do I run to?

And I keep telling you, I don't share the pain
But your absence hurts more than a fall from the balcony
Where I can't find you, that's where I want to look hard
But I'd fight other demons, I'd take you without asking
But you don't, you're cold
I can't get close, the pain won't go away
