It's been hard on you, but it's been hard on me
Can't you see my point of view?
And every time we speak
It leave me weak
When you're running away 'cause you don't wanna hear what I say
Is it me, is it you, could it all have been a mistake?

But I won't give up
Make it worth my time
We've been in it so long we forgot how it feels to live life
And I wanna stay
And I won't give up if you make it worth my time
We're approaching it wrong and it isn't enough to get by
And I wanna stay

Nobody's fault, but we both feel the pain
It's a shame
And we've talked of change but everything remains just the same
When you're running away 'cause you don't wanna hear what I say
Is it me, is it you, could it all have been a mistake?

But I won't give up
Make it worth my time
We've been in it so long we forgot how it feels to live life
And I wanna stay
And I won't give up if you make it worth my time
We're approaching it wrong and it isn't enough to get by
I wanna stay

You sacrifice, who's wrong or right?
Let's stick together now more than ever

I won't give up
Make it worth my time
We've been in it so long we forgot how it feels to live life
And I wanna stay
And I won't give up if you make it worth my time
We're approaching this wrong and it isn't enough to get by
And I wanna stay
