Look me in the eyes and I will turn away in shame.
Can hardly live with the pain I draged you through.
Feels like I've locked your hand in mine...
forcing you to suffer with me.
Should have let go long ago.
You would've come so far by now.
Your fortune and happiness drowned by my pessimism.
I will never deserve your kindness and love.

Just want to hide somewhere.
Screaming and crying of shame and regret.
Don't want anyone to hear me.
So I box it up inside.
"Look at me happy and full of hopes and dreams."

I don't follow my dreams anymore, there's no use
they won't be fullfilled.
Sorry my dear sweetheart.
I can never step up and be the man that you deserve.
Trust me if I could I would.
But there's always something blocking me....
no use trying to explain.

If you would find it in you to stick with me,
I want you to know.
Your love and kindness drowns my sorrows.
Your smile sometimes makes me cry inside.
Whenever you yell at me for something I did or didn't do,
I get warm inside from the sound of your voice.

I love the way you always cry about everyone elses misery
and pain but never for your own.
The way you care for the ones you've never met.
The way you care for me.
Your constant ability to forgive me.
Keep me....
Stay...
