Stay Close
Parabelle Lyrics

I'd wipe your tear but this is just how I feel
I empathize with your pain, but I cannot make it better as this is how I genuinely feel

You should have let go so you can hold on to what's real
To find true happiness, sometimes we must let go of what we're holding on to

And they say all the facts are in
The situation is conclusive and all the information is available

And this is where it ends
The story has come to its conclusion

Maybe its best to be broken cuz I know that we wont bend
Perhaps it's better to let go and be broken, rather than trying to hold on when it's not going to work

You should close the door or try a little more
Either put an end to this or give it one more chance

Why we circle I don't know
I don't understand why we keep going in circles

But I know if it's too much to follow
If it's becoming too difficult to continue, it's probably best to stop

Maybe it's best you don't stay close
To protect yourself from further heartache, maybe it's best to keep your distance

Cuz you know you'll be missed
I will miss you even though we have to let go

You will be better than this
I believe you have the strength to move on from this and find love again

You're so much better than this
Your worth is much more than the pain you're going through

I just want out
I want to break free from this difficult situation

But you're hard to resist
It's tough to let go as I still have feelings for you

You know I'm better than this
You know I can be a better version of myself than I am currently

You know me better than this
You understand me better than I do myself, and you know I can do better

I strike your fear cuz your heart won't set to feel
I'm the reason for your fear and you're not able to feel with your heart anymore

Maybe this was just too fast too real
Perhaps our relationship was too intense and too fast-paced for you to process

Now you're bummed out
You're feeling down

You're sick of changing
You're tired of trying to make things work by changing yourself

I can see in your eyes you're sick of the complaining
You can't tolerate this situation anymore, and I can see it clearly in your eyes

I'll make it up to you somehow
I promise to compensate for my mistakes in some way

But for now if it's too hard to swallow
If it's too difficult to move on from this at the moment

Then maybe its best you don't stay close
It's probably best to keep your distance to avoid being hurt again

I swear I'm doing nothing wrong
I'm not intentionally hurting you, and I'm being honest with you

Maybe the memory seem like the pictures we take
Memories can be deceiving and often not reflect the reality of a situation

You still exist in my mind
I can't forget you from my thoughts

Even if I'm lost in yours
Even if I'm not as prominent in your thoughts, you always exist in mine
