Stay Away From Me

(album: All The Faint Lights - 2009)

Look here, my dear
Waste no time being insincere
I have looked and now I am broken

Least you got your mark on me
Hold your fire
Find another man to admire
Excuse me while I search for my remains

There's nothing left to give you, no, no
You're a good girl, I probably shouldn't see you

All my love gone from me
Let me break so easily
'Cause you don't really know the things I've seen, I've seen
I lost myself in her fire
Got away and now I'm tired
Well if I were you, here's what I'd do
Stay away from me

You think a woman's touch can heal my scars
I don't need your open arms
You don't wanna know the things I've seen

I think it's best if you stand your ground
If you see me, turn around
Don't let yourself be proof of my destruction

There's nothing left to give you
You're a good girl, I probably shouldn't see you

All my love gone from me
Let me break so easily
'Cause you don't really know the things I've seen, I've seen
I lost myself in her fire

Got away and now I'm tired
Well if I were you, here's what I'd do
Stay away from me

And every word that you never said
Is best kept inside of you instead
I know that you want more

But there's nothing I can do to compromise
So much more than you have realized
I'm broke and out of mind
Don't waste your time
I don't know who I am without her still
Without her still

All my love gone from me
Let me break so easily
'Cause you don't really know the things I've seen, I have seen
I lost myself in her fire
Got away and now I'm tired
Well if I were you, here's what I'd do
Stay away from me

Stay away from me
Stay away from me
Away from me

Hold your fire
Hold your fire
Hold your fire
Hold your fire
Stay away from me
