It didn't make sense, I cried for your presence You left a trail of red lines before you disappeared I wanted you closer, but you checked the coast, sir And faded into a place where I could never be You said leave me alone, and I stayed home, and you let me walk away You said leave me alone, and now you're gone, and I let you walk away So stay gone, stay gone So stay gone, stay gone Stay gone, stay gone Stay gone, stay gone Stay gone, stay gone Stay gone, stay gone Stay gone, stay gone Stay gone, stay gone Stay gone Now you want my sleep time I dream every night time You said you're in some dark place reaching California Then you let me go I see you on highways At the end I will picture And the more I tear you out The more you stay You said leave me alone I stayed home and you let me walk away You said leave me alone And now you're gone and I let you walk away So stay gone Stay gone So stay gone Stay gone Stay gone Stay gone Stay gone Stay gone Stay gone Stay gone Stay gone Stay gone Stay gone You're the ghost that I see in the mirror And you're the ghost around me that hurts You're the ghost that I wish disappeared Stay gone Stay gone Stay gone Stay gone
