Stay - Nneka

The state of madness, is where I find myself

Freedom is helpless, cos I’m captured within myself

It is all in my mind, the illusion, that your presence don’t count

But it is a lie

Please stay

Please stay

Please stay

I am begging you to say

I enter the dark, approach the silence

I have given and so I am empty

Can’t keep the tears from my eyes

You don’t know what I feel

You don’t know what I feel, what I feel, captive

The loneliness inside of me, because I fell for you, you left me?

This world that I love and hate so much, this life in which I have lost and I

gained as such

The music the fame, the evil the shame, the changes, the results,

the aggression the insults

Still I wait I try to exercise the patience

And yet delayed I pray for you to see my conscience, who would be there,

if you left me Lord

I believe in your words cos your first and my last, say it is a trial,

say it is a test, I need to understand to overcome the rest, got too many

rivers to cross, to many things to see, so much pain to bear this misery

Oh Lord, oh Savior, let me drown in your love

Please stay

Please stay
