Your Man Alex Smith - Stick Around Lyrics

The light is fading now
The embers are dying down
And I'm crumbling out into the street
I've got calluses they're running inches deep
Can't feel the ground that's underneath my feet

I can't feel the sand between my toes
I can't feel the wind whip at my clothes
But I got this fear that only grows
When I talk nobody knows
That I can't even hear a single sound

But I'll stick around
Cos I'm too scared to take my feet off the ground
I'm too scared to fly
If it's so easy, tell me why am I still here?
Why am I still here?

What's my scene?
I ask so I can spit out lines with nothing in-between
What is my line?
And tell me if you could please what the story is this time

Cos I'm bleeding booze and breathing smoke
I drown out the blues with every toke
Regretting words I never spoke
Cos when I try they choke me
Am I blind or are the lights just down?

But I'll stick around
Cos I'm too scared to take my feet off the ground
I'm too scared to fly
If it's so easy, tell me why am I still here?

Things won't be ok
No matter what they say
They lied so you'd get too attached
To up and walk away
And if I could crawl out
Where the light is pouring in
I would do it in a second
I will face my reckoning
Cos when I jump I will not fly
And I can't bear to see you cry

But I'll stick around
Cos I'm too scared to take my feet off the ground
I'm too scared to fly
If it's so easy, tell me why am I still here?
Why am I still here?

I'll stick around
I'll stick around
I'll stick around
I'll stick around
