Stay

You don't understand how much you mean to me
I'd take a bullet for you
Swim through oceans for you
I immediately set everything down to make sure you're ok
I sit there patiently waiting
Knowing in the back of my mind you will never tell me what's wrong
But I can't leave
You told me I could go
But I know you needed me to stay
You hide behind this mask
I know you're not happy
I know you're not ok
So I stay
To make sure you're ok
