Jonathan Thomas Maiocco - Stay Lyrics

The other side
Is not what I
What I thought it would be
It's not like a movie
With the world at my feet
I fought the fight
I crossed the line
But it's still not easy
It's not what they told me
What they said it would be
And I know what I know
And I try to be strong
But it's not easier
And I try to let go
And I try to hold on
But I still feel the fear
When the music fades
And the world keeps spinning by
I know I'll keep moving
It hurts to be human
But I choose to be brave
When I'm losing faith
And the shadows come to mind
I'll know that it's worth it
I know it's not perfect
But I choose to stay
I choose to stay
I choose to stay
The rising tide
It fills my mind
Oh, ever so quickly
I try not to worry
About how things should be
The pain inside
I try to hide
I try to be happy
But it's still not easy
When there's no guarantees
And I no longer hold
All the weight of the world
But it's not easier
And I try to move forward
And not be scared anymore
But I still feel the fear
When the music fades
And the world keeps spinning by
I know I'll keep moving
It hurts to be human
But I choose to be brave
When I'm losing faith
And the shadows come to mind
I'll know that it's worth it
I know it's not perfect
But I choose to stay
I choose to stay
I choose to stay
Please choose to stay
