if you stay Video (MV)

You feel a little naked every time you speak
You've gotten good at faking, at lying through your teeth
You know when to throw a punch or when to tell them you're in love
But you don't, but you don't

You try to hide your feelings with your heart out on your sleeve
You stay silent for a weekend cause you cry when you try to speak
You think you know what to do, it don't come easy to you
No it don't, no it don't

What's yours is yours until they go and leave you
You love someone until they really see you

Take a breath kid, it's okay, life is better than today
And morning's just a sleep away
If you stay, if you stay

You could have all the cliches
The perfect job, the perfect date
It'll all be yours someday
If you stay, if you stay

You have a hard time knowing how people feel inside
So you've gotten good at hoping they can see it in your eyes
You don't wanna be too much, you think you don't measure up
But you do, yes you do

If you need a second I can give you that
But only if tonight is not your last

Take a breath kid, it's okay, life is better than today
The morning's just a sleep away
If you stay, if you stay

You could have all the cliches
The perfect job, the perfect date
It'll all be yours someday
If you stay, if you stay

Take a breath kid, it's okay, life is better than today
The morning's just a sleep away
If you stay, if you stay

Leave this all in yesterday
It doesn't matter anyway
Take your time, you know I'll wait
If you stay, you should stay
