"look at me

i'm in a place

i never thought i'd be

i don't have the strength

to fight anymore

or a reason not to leave

so tell me why i keep holding on

to something i just cannot see



what makes you stay when your world falls apart

what makes you try one more time when it's not in your heart

at the end of your rope when you can't find any hope

you still look at him and say

i just can't walk away

tell me what makes you stay



i'm not afraid of living alone

i was alone before he came

and i've been in love

many time before

but this time's not the same

i've always been the first to say goodbye

now it's the last thing i can't do



what makes you stay when your world falls apart

what makes you try one more time when it's not in your heart

at the end of your rope when you can't find any hope

you still look at him and say

i just can't walk away

tell me what makes you stay



when it goes this deep

feels this strong

i can't convince myself

this love is wrong



at the end of your rope

when you can't find any hope

you still look at him and say

i just can't walk away

tell me what makes you stay



tell me what makes you stay"
