Why don't you stay?

Empty bottles on the floor. You're walkin out the door again. Tell me what we're fighting for. When did loving you become pretend? Bags are packed beside the bed. Same old fight, same old end. Words we wish we never said, Heavy in the air we breathe. And I'm tired of this Back and forth we. Maybe this is it Maybe I should know. Coffee getting cold again. Morning light through broken blinds. Staring at your phone again Like you're looking for a sign. I know we're both afraid to fall, Afraid to give it one more try, But walking out won't heal it all Just leave us asking ourselves why. But I'm tired of this Back and forth we go Maybe this is it Maybe I should know, Why don't you stay this time? Why won't you try and fight? Instead of running, Running when it gets too real Why dont you stay and feel? Instead of always saying, "goodbye" We keep breaking What we're trying to save All this space between us That we've learned to make I still remember How we used to be Before we got so good at Walking away from me...
