What if I stayed? Forget about the mess I made Do you think I could have given you enough To alleviate the burden of my love? Say what you won't I'm better off when I'm alone Toxic to the core, your shadow of doubt A shade of grey that you could live without Tired of losing sleep Bruised by your embrace Thought I'd never quit but now I can't stand the taste My head's never coloured me well You held so tightly to an empty shell I know I'm not alone Maybe I should have been I'm trying to let you in I'm trying to let you in Does it feel like I'm giving up? I find self destruction so much easier than love There's a darkness holding me up Maybe I can walk just fine I'm too scared to try I'm too scared to try There's a darkness holding me up Maybe I can walk just fine I'm too scared to try I'm too scared to try There's a darkness holding me up Maybe I can walk just fine I'm too scared to try I'm too scared to try
