Expressions of Me

Why Do You Stay

Why?
Why do you want to stay?
Are you sure of your heart?
Or is it that you're afraid?

Love you as I do
You're tearing me apart
I can't mend this heart of mine
If you don't give me the chance

Tell me the truth
Why are you still here?
Do you really want to be here?
Or is it just earier for you to stay?

When I said "I Do"
I meant it for life
I meant I wanted to create a life with you
To be there by your side through thick and thin

You move away from me
You don't show me the real you anymore
The love has gone even though you claim it's still there
You've distanced yourself - leaving me with your mind

I don't want to live in this shell of a relationship
I want something real, something genuine
If you can't give it to me
Why do you stay?
