To Stay Here

lyrics

Don't mention the neighbors, how they want you to be
You don't mean nothing to me.
You don't mean nothing to me.
Don't question the faith. How I want you to feel.
You don't mean nothing to me at all.

And you can't say that if I told you all them things,
You wouldn't wanna hurt me.
Have I told you? Have I told you? Have I told you?
Have I?
That if I told you all them things
You wouldn't wanna hurt me.
Have I told you? Have I told you? Have I told you?
Have I?

That's why you don't do them tings there.
That's why you don't do them tings there.
That's why you don't do them tings there.
That's why we don't say them tings there.
That's why we don't chat about that stuff.
End up reenacting all the other ones.
That's why you don't do them tings there.

Seeing pictures of me and they're faded.
When will I replace with new one's I ain't taken?
Every time we talk about it, you say I'm vacant.
I say that the camera's way down down down in the basement.
You say I'm lazy, to pick up the pace then
"It's been a while since you took me to places.
It's looking like you don't want me to stay here
If there's something you wanna say then just say it.
There's something you wanna-"

You're looking deadly this evening
I ain't gonna tease it, you know I don't need it.
I can go well on without it.
My mind and my body, they don't need the shouting.
Cause you're looking deadly this evening.
I took it to go, even though I didn't need it.
That's why we don't do them tings there.
That's why we don't do them tings there.

So don't mention the neighbors, what they want you to be.
They don't mean nothing to me.
Cause we can talk it out.
We can talk it out.
