(verse 1)

the days, they fly by like fast cars on the interstate

will I ever learn?

I’m floating higher than I knew that I could take

until one day, I crash and burn

(verse 2)

I’m all alone, and I can’t feel my fingertips

floating in the air

my indisposed head is spinning, vision’s blurry, air is thinning

I wonder if I’m there, but

(chorus)

I’ll stick around for you

my story’s over and there’s nothing to do, but

it’d be a crying shame

if the life that I had became

worthwhile

and what if you would take the blame?

so I’ll

write myself an epilogue

through the relentless fog

the final page is not the end

I’ll stick around for you, my friend

(bridge)

the weeks are growing hazier

and here we go again

though I’d rather disappear,

(chorus)

I’ll stick around for you, my friend

my story seems to have reached the end

but I'll stick around for you

'cause what more is there for me to do?

help me write an epilogue

through the relentless fog

the final page is not the end

I'll stick around for you, my friend
