If you were here right now I wouldn't write this down at all.
I'd think out loud, embracing you in a calm confessional.
If you were here right now, I wouldn't write this song at all.
I'd sing out loud, and hope that you don't just laugh it off.

I stay here because it makes too much sense not to
Too much sense not to.

If you could hear me now
I'd be careful not to say
How I have cancelled all my plans to go away
Sometimes when you're around
it cancels out the gray
But more than not
you tack it on in your lightless way.

I stay here because it makes too much sense not to
Too much sense not to
I stay here because it makes too much sense not to
Way much sense not to stay

My joints buckle under the weight of this wall
My joints buckle under the weight of this wall
Under the weight of it all
My joints buckle under the weight of this wall
My joints buckle under the weight of this wall
Under the weight of it all

And I stay here because it makes too much sense not to
Way much sense not to stay
