she stayed

Where do we go when the eyes fall back?
When the heart is black with pain?
And the rain is filling up your cup
That’s been empty since you drank it up
And you need a second dose of medicine.

So you sit around a table with a label on your head
And everybody has the same excuse as you
You laugh your head off, you want to get off
Forget about the truth you thought you knew.

And now a miracle is walking through the door
And now you’re waking, but still dreaming of what’s in store
Your past is regrettable
The present is forgettable
And she’s memorable; she’s all you’ve waited for.

She reminds you of the way you used to be
Shining brighter than the night, her light is all you see
She’s on fire and you’re a flame
And you don’t even know her name
But its okay now, it’s okay
Because she stayed.
