Roe Kapara - I Wanted You Lyrics

Taste the words that fell from your Tongue
Bitter and cold just the way that you want
You say I'm unclean and I'm buried in sin
You drink the lies that you tell to your kids
I've been sittin' in the cold
Happiest I wouldn't know
And I've been myself for all these years
Shadows open into fears
Ball it up all into tears that I
Finish off my selfish way

I wanted you to stay
I wanted you to say my name
I wondered if you'd change
I wanted you to stay
The pain'll help me grow
With all the times you let me go

I'm tired of the pain
I wanted you to stay
You've taken all my breath
He lies away and warms our bed
And my only friend was wasted on you again
I've painted all these walls
With memories that I can't redraw
You won't call again, but baby I'd understand

I wanted you to stay
I wanted you to say my name
I wondered if you'd change
I wanted you to stay
The pain'll help me grow
With all the times you let me go

I'm tired of the pain
I wanted you to stay
I wanted you to stay
I wanted to say my name

Of all the things you'd take
I wanted you to stay
