I lay in my bed recall your memories
My broken clocks are ticking
They're clogging my arteries
I stare at the walls they come crumbling down
The daylight ceases, It breaks my heart

Don't leave me, just not yet
There's so much more to see, honey don't leave
Please keep your door open, I'll walk right through
Open the door once I ring it, I know your dark truth

Company is seldom, All I do is welcome
Come along and sing with me
Why does it even matter? I feel like the mad hatter, come on stay with me
I think I'm gonna tell em, don't care what will happen
Don't give up just yet, I'll catch you from your tightrope.

My fingers glide across your warm blanket
Once kept me warm, you told me we'd make it
I can't get better once I'm on my own
Need somebody there, get me away from this cold

Don't leave me, just not yet
There's so much more to see, honey don't leave
Please keep your door open, I'll walk right through
Open the door once I ring it, I know your dark truth

Company is seldom, All I do is welcome
Come along and sing with me
Why does it even matter? I feel like the mad hatter, come on stay with me
I think I'm gonna tell em, don't care what will happen
Don't give up just yet, I'll catch you from your tightrope.

I know it's hard up there walking on that tightrope. Keep it up for me, come along now
Can you reach the clouds up there? I can't tell as I stare.
In my mind I picture you, running through the flowers, they blossom for you
Don't leave yet, stay, there's so much for you

Company is seldom, All I do is welcome
Come along and sing with me
Why does it even matter? I feel like the mad hatter, come on stay with me
I think I'm gonna tell em, don't care what will happen
Don't give up just yet, I'll catch you from your tightrope.
Nothing bad from this tightrope
You'll get across this tightrope
Babe I know you have hope
I'll walk with you on this tightrope
