The Reason I Stay lyrics

If you were here right now I wouldn`t right this down at all.
I`d think out loud, embracing you in a calm confessional.
If you were here right now, I wouldn`t write this song at all.
I`d sing out loud, and hope that you don`t just laugh it off.
I stay here because it makes too much sense not to, too much sense not to.
If you could hear me now I`d be careful not to say,
How I`ve cancelled all my plans to go away.
Sometimes when you`re around, it cancels out the gray,
But more than not, you tack it on in your lightless way.
I stay here because it makes too much sense not to, too much sense not to.
These joints buckle, from the weight of this wall.
