Don’t Stay for Me

Sitting at my door
Listening to your voices
Press the break on this car crash
Don’t say you’re staying for me

Hate it, you know
When you fight over anything
When I cry behind my door
Don’t say you’re staying for me

You never made me feel special
All you did was stare me down
Tell the truth this time
Don’t say you’re staying for me

You cause each other so much pain
Your words hurt worse than hits
Life will hurt you if you stay together
Don’t say you’re staying for me

You both know what’s good for you
We all know I’m hurting here
When the screams stop there is never laughter
Don’t say you’re staying for me

Sign the papers to leave
You can do it you’ll set me free
And if you don’t want to
Don’t say you’re staying for me

Say it was grief when it was greed
Say it was love when hate was common ground
When I ask you why you took so long
Don’t say you stayed for me

A/N: my parents divorced when i was about 3 so i live with my mom and visit my dad a little. but my cousins lived with their mom and dad and they fought all the time. even when i was over there. they would yell and things and it would always end up one of my 3 cousins crying. i even felt bad after. this is just how staying together for the kids isn't alway the best idea. they got a divorce though and that was good cause they almost called the police on each other one time while i was down there. why they got together i will never know...
