Stay

You've been down a while.

Stand up.

It's a time of strife and trail.

Rise up.

The secrets are falling down.

Stand up.

And you've got to come back before you drown.

Please rise.

You lay on that bed of roses

You've fallen down.

And you're lost where nothing else grows.

You lie.

You need to face the sun.
Face the sunshine.

There's not a way to forever run.

So stop.

Can you see me the whole way down here?

Open your eyes.
Lay against me, my Raven, and release your tears.
In my arms.

And show me once again you've always known how to smile.
Please just show me a smile.

And stay with me longer, just a little while.
Stay.
