Stay …



When the truth is.
More likely,
Will I stay or fade away,
Without a reason why,
My heart says,
That I will stay,

When my life becomes,
A search for,
The truth behind the lies,
To find an answer deep inside,
My heart says,
That I will stay,

I have to look,
I have to try,
I have to trust,
In a reason why,
I have to stay,
I have to try,
I have to trust,
In a reason why,
My heart says,
That I will stay ...

When there is nor reason why ...
