You are growing distant
This I can see
Where your smile used to be
Yeah, you've changed
I think you've changed
I think I've stayed the same
But I am growing desperate
Pathetic, I know
I can see what you're doing to me
But I won't leave
So do your worst
'Cause I wil try to keep it
Yes, I will try to make it stay
You are not a monster
That's the worst part
I know you're still the same man that I
That I loved
Who's had a change of heart
But this is getting harder
Than it should be
It's so easy to see that your love
Is elsewhere
I know that it's gone but I'm still here
I'm fighting
Yes, I will try to keep it
Yes, I will try to make it stay
Yes, I will try to fix it
Yes, I will try to make it stay
Through the smoke and debris
I can still see a tree that can bear fruit
As I scratch at the leaves
Searching for a single sign of truth
As you sit at the peak
You watch me scream
"What do you want from me?"
Maybe you're a monster
Maybe you don't care
You still have your perfect world
I'm just not there
But I will try to keep it
Yes, I will try to make it stay
Yes, I will try to fix it
And I will try to make it stay
