Why can\'t I stay?
When will the pain go away?
when will the burden you can\'t see,
be taken from me?
Will it ever go away?
Will the pain always stay?
Will I ever be free,
from what imprisons me?
I just want to stay
I don\'t want to go away
it\'s not okay
It\'s getting hard to handle
i weep like a burning candle
It\'s hard being me
i want to be free
you get to meet new people they say
but I don\'t want to today
not today, not tommorw, not ever
I like my friends here
they work fine for me
moving was fun for awhile
and then I moved here
i made great friends
and met a cute boy
(we may go on a date!)
but then I will move
and Leave them behind
\"there are many fish in the sea\"
yeah, so?
i\'ve met enough for me.
I\'ve always said moving fine
pretened it doesn\'t hurt
and they believed me
of course it hurts!
just look past my fake smile
don\'t you see?
i\'ve cried myself to sleep
wishing we\'d stay
dreading the move
11 months away
my friends here say
\"we have a year left, that\'s plenty of time.\"
but they don\'t see it like i do
they time flies by fast
just wait
youll see
and they\'re will be
the less happy me
by the time I have to move
the year has felt like weeks
its gone by too fast
we couldn\'t make it last
it was a blast
but now I\'ll just cry
but not where you\'ll see me
ill cry myself to sleep
with my cat there beside me
and in the morning
I\'ll look
as happy as ever
why can\'t I stay
when will the pain go away
when will the burden you can\'t see
be taken from me?
