You're Still Here

Leave while you can, hurry up & get away

Hit the road running & don't come back

My name is poison on your innocent lips

I'm the dark cloud that hovers above you when you want the sun

I'm all the bad luck on your worst day

But for some reason you're still here

Whatever it is, it's not worth it

Prepare for war

Those who linger don't often get away

& those who get away never come back

But for some reason you're still here

I know you think you can 'fix' me, but it's just not true

Others have tried & failed; I'll only disappoint you

But for reasons unknown you're still here when you should be gone

Long gone

With all the others, they were smart, and you are too

That's why I'm surprised with you

You should leave before I bring you down too..

You say you want to help, but give it a month or two

Even though you say it won't change, I know it will

But for some reason you're still here

You must be crazy
