lyrics

(she stayed)

i gave her every reason to get up and leave
i was boring and specific and i cried at the wrong part
i watched the door behind her like it owed me something
and she took her coat off. that was all. she took her coat off.

she stayed, she stayed (she stayed)
past the point of polite, she stayed
past the last train, she stayed
she stayed

she stayed, she stayed, she stayed, she stayed
i have never once been boring enough to keep
she stayed, she stayed, she stayed, she stayed
and she just took her coat off and she stayed

i have a rule. i give people an exit at the forty minute mark.
i say "you should probably go" and they always agree with me.
she said no. she said it like it was obvious. it was not obvious.
(build, strings, tension climbing)

she stayed, she stayed, she stayed, she stayed
i have never once been boring enough to keep
she stayed, she stayed, she stayed, she stayed
and she just took her coat off and she stayed
