Stay True

Whatever happened to the heart inside of you
It wasn't destiny you said
When there was tension our paths had split in two
But it was all inside your head

I had no answer when I heard your distant screams
You said you never would believe
We gave you freedom it only made you bleed
It's not the freedom you would need
It was wrong
The chapters that we went through
The story only you
At least I know if you were here you'd say

Stay true
I'll pretend to walk with you
Still I hear you say

You had your reasons for hurting only you
It wouldn't heal until your death
And I kept believing that you would make it through
That's what we always should have said

I wrote you music I thought it would make you see
You said you never would believe
Those thoughts of anger, the final words to be
Now tears forever chasing me
