[Verse 1] Determination to leave fills your heart, but I don't know if you're strong enough It is a treacherous place outside, that's why I'm trying to close it off Not the first to fall but I hope you're the last Once you leave me here there's no coming back
[Pre-Chorus] Stay with me my child I will raise you as my own, my own Refuse to let it take you like it took all the rest The nightmare too familiar replays 'till nothing's left Why wrap your heart in peril when we can hide away? Refuse to let it take you, refuse to let it take you
[Chorus] So won't you stay? So won't you stay?
[Verse 2] I want to keep on protecting your soul and if you let me, I'll keep you safe These ruins, they can turn into our home Please turn back now, its still not too late But if you keep on down this dangerous path I can't shield you from their burning wrath
[Pre-Chorus] Stay with me my child I will raise you as my own, my own Refuse to let it take you like it took all the rest The nightmare too familiar replays 'till nothing's left Why wrap your heart in peril when we can hide away? Refuse to let it take you, refuse to let it take you
[Chorus] So won't you stay? So won't you stay?
[Verse 3] Rest your head my child and just stay a while There is no rush Close your eyes and sleep Hope your dreams are sweet like butterscotch
[Pre-Chorus] Refuse to let it take you like it took all the rest The nightmare too familiar replays 'till nothing's left Why wrap your heart in peril when we can hide away? Refuse to let it take you, refuse to let it take you
