Stay - drama


Based On: Better Man by Taylor Swift

I can still imagine
All the things I wish you said to me
The bravest thing I did
Was to admit that I deserved better

I get so nervous
When I come back to take the things I left behind
I don't know why I'm scared
Of making things worse
I hit that milestone years ago

Thing is you were a fortress
So powerful and beautiful in every way
And I felt like your nemesis
Where everything I did was to see you cave
Out alone on the precipice
You turned down the hand I gave
I freeze in the mist because
You were a keeper but I could never beg you to stay

You can still imagine
All the things you wish you said to me
But I leave you no part of me
To give you that chance

I get so confused
When I almost drive back to you
I know why I'm scared
Because if I make it past the porch
There's no telling what I might do

Thing is you were a fortress
So powerful and beautiful in every way
And I felt like your nemesis
Where everything I did was to see you cave
Out alone on the precipice
You turned down the hand I gave
I freeze in the mist because
You were a keeper but I could never beg you to stay

If there is anything I could tell myself three years ago
It's that if you have to force it, it's probably not worth it
If there is anything I wish I could have known before
It's that you were not worth the price of freedom I had to pay
If there was one thing I wish you knew before
It's that walls have to be penetrable
If there was one thing I wish for for you
It's that your next someone isn't a fool

Thing is you were fortress
So powerful and beautiful in every way
And I felt like your nemesis
Working too hard to see your walls cave
Out alone on the precipice
You proudly refused to be saved
I freeze in the mist because
You were keeper but I could never beg you to stay.
