Stay Gone

[Verse 1:]
We don't always hear the end
When it knocks on the door
To let you know what's coming there and then
You could slip in, in the dark
Find your way under my skin
You and your band of demons
Just move right in

[Chorus:]
And you come to stay
And you find your way
Into every breath I breathe
But I fought you and I beat you
Before you got too deep
I know there will be more of you
Bound to come along
So I thank my lucky star
To say we are through
And pray you stay gone

[Verse 2:]
You get away with murder
You steal sanity from the sane
You rock the lives of moms and dads
And children all the same
And you never face your trials
Or you’d be somewhere doing time
Till the end of days, and kingdom come
Not a soul would ever mind

[Chorus]

[Outro:]
Every life you take will live again
There’s a part of every life that you can never win
But when you’ve taken all you can from me
And I finally lose it all
I thank my lucky star to say we’re through
And pray you stay gone
