Genevieve Jaide - Begging You

Crunchy steps of snow on my front porch
Cacti on the sill
Waiting for summer, wondering where is the sun
Moody swings are depicting
Into my daily life I am sinking
Was it what you really meant, when you said that you've been thinking

Oh what a burden to your routine
She needs more than you could be
Screaming at the sidewalks
Erasing you from all her dreams

I'm not begging you to stay
It's been years since you've felt this way
I'm not begging you change
It's been years since you've dealt with the pain

Nobody's winning with these head games
When everything was right as rain
There you were, like a stream filling up the seams
It's not your weapon of choice that is the problem
It's the way you bite your tongue
Carefully walking on fresh carpet
You can't erase what you've done

I've been sitting out on the sidelines
Patiently biding my time
Thinking I'm far from good enough
Reminding me that's a lie

I'm not begging you to stay
It's been years since you've felt this way
I'm not begging you change
It's been years since you've dealt with the pain
I'm not begging you to stay
It's been years since you've felt this way
I'm not begging you change
It's been years since you've dealt with the pain
I'm not begging you to stay
I'm not begging you to stay

I've been sitting out on the sidelines
Patiently biding my time

I'm not begging you to stay
It's been years since you've felt this way
I'm not begging you change
It's been years since you've dealt with the pain
I'm not begging you to stay
It's been years since you've felt this way
I'm not begging you change
It's been years since you've dealt with the pain
Begging you
Begging you
Begging you
Begging you
Begging you
Begging you
Begging you
