Why Do We Stay lyrics

He had a temper and when it went off was as deadly as a gun He made her feel like she had nowhere to run Clinging together like honey and leather Ridiculous when you look back Like it was preordained they wore everything black Why do we stay? Stay surrounded by people that don't want us In places we're not wanted Tell me why you stay Stay surrounded by people that don't want you In places you're not wanted Tell me why you stay Sits at the table and goes through emotions Telling herself that she's trapped Faking a smile, it doesn't have to be like that No room to breathe, he's lost in the silence Wondering what he did wrong Thinking that no one cared, feeling like the only one Why do we stay? Stay surrounded by people that don't want us In places we're not wanted Tell me why you stay Stay surrounded by people that don't want you In places you're not wanted Tell me why you stay Tell me why you stay The truth in your heart is a ticking bomb The voice inside telling you to run Keeps screaming to move it along, along I want you to know that there's always a way out Heaven's out there somewhere, but you have to leave now Tell me why we stay Stay surrounded by people that don't want us In places we're not wanted Tell me why you stay Stay surrounded by people that don't want you In places you're not wanted Tell me why you stay (ohh) Tell me why you stay (ohh) Tell me why you stay (ohh)
