Song Lyrics

"Stay Bonus Track"

by Flyleaf
Album: Memento Mori

(U2 Cover)

Green light
7-11
You stop in for a pack of cigarettes
You don't smoke
Don't even want to
Hey now, check your change

Dressed up
Like a car crash
The wheels are turning
But you're upside down

You say when he hits you
You don't mind
Because when he hurts you
You feel alive
Oh, is that what it is'

Red lights
Gray morning
You stumble out of a hole in the ground
A vampire or a victim
It depends on who's around

You used to stay in
To watch the adverts
You could lip-sync
To the talk shows

And if you look
You look through me
And when you talk
It's not to me
And when I touch you
You don't feel a thing

If I could stay
Then the night would give you up
Stay and the day would keep its trust
Stay and the night would be enough

Far away
So close
Up with the static and the radio
With satellite television
You can go anywhere

Miami, New Orleans
London, Belfast, and Berlin

And if you'll listen
I can call
And if you jump
You just might fall
And if you shout
I'll only hear you

If I could stay then the night would give you up
Stay then the day would keep its trust
Stay with the demons you drowned
Stay with the spirit I found
Stay and the night would be enough

Three o'clock
In the morning
It's quiet and there's no one around

Just the bang
And the clatter
As an angel runs to ground

Just the bang
And the clatter
As an angel hits the ground
