Ethan Jewell Please Stay
(i was just uh, thinking about you, and i know you've been having a hard time, um, so i just wanted to give you a call and tell you that i really believe in you, and you got this)
The sunsets are dull, and you dont know what to do
So you scrub down your brain
And you bought some new shoes
And the reliable tricks just arent working
Despite the painkillers, your heart is still hurting
You've had a rough day, a hard night, the worst week
But i see past your smile, to the tears on your cheek
A pessimistic struggle, for most of your life
But please, stay with me for tonight
(just calling again, uh, thought about you earlier and uh, just let me know if you ever need anything okay? im herе and we all care about you)
Your stomach is turning, and that feeling is back
And your brain will burn bridges, but won't cut you somе slack
And sleep won't come easy, and your eyelids are bright
And everythings scary, and nothings alright
Theres salt in the sea, and then theres salt in your wounds
And theres dirt in their hearses, and theres blood on the moon
And your brains trying to kill you, for the one hundredth time
But please, stay with me just for tonight
(its just me, reaching out again, i haven't heard from you and im a little worried. i just wanted to call you and remind you that you are loved and it absolutely gets better, i promise)
The same brain that tried to kill you will one day save your life
And one day you'll have a lover, a husband, or a wife
One day you'll breathe easy and your lungs won't be heavy
And your hands won't be shaky, and your mind will hold steady
And it won't be easy but youve been through the waves
And youve stayed up for hours and youve stayed up for days
And im not saying its different
Im not saying its nice
I just think you should stay, at least for tonight
Tomorrow might be better, the suns up at first glance
And you dont have to promise, just give life a chance
It gets so much better, please give life a chance
Just for tonight, please give life a chance
(no matter how hard it gets, theres always a reason to stay. there really is, there, everyday. you just have to look for it)
