"The Reason I Stay" lyrics

"The Reason I Stay"

How many times
Will I take this rollercoaster ride?
Make myself sick before I realize
I can just step off
And how many nights
Will I keep driving on an empty tank?
Every mile I go, a little more insane
When I can make it stop

When I love you rolls right off your tongue
I forget your mouth's a loaded gun

Yeah, baby you're the reason I'm crazy
And lately you're the reason I cry
Yeah, you're the only reason I hate me
And love you at the same damn time
Oh, how do you keep me so hopeless
And somehow believing you'll change
'Cause you're the only reason I ever wanna leave
And baby, you're the reason I stay

When you're good at self-harm
And holding you is like I lassoed the sun
But then you drop me down when I ain't got a parachute
Falling from the cloud that you just sent me to

And baby that's the reason I'm crazy
And lately you're the reason I cry
Yeah, you're the only reason I hate me
And love you at the same damn time
Oh, how do you keep me so hopeless
And somehow believing you'll change
'Cause you're the only reason I ever wanna leave
And baby, you're the reason I stay

Oh, I wanna walk away
But I can't walk away

And baby that's the reason I'm crazy
Baby, that's the reason I hate me
For loving you all the damn time
Oh, how do you keep me so hopeless
And somehow believing you'll change
'Cause you're the only reason I ever wanna leave
And baby, you're the reason I stay
You're the only reason I stay
