Got me to stay, said that you need me
Stop 'cause these words don't have a meaning
No, they don't, at least not to me
There'll be a day I'll be more creative
A poetic way to say I'm not leaving
To the world, not to your face, mmm

[Chorus]
I'll take my pride, stand here for you
No, I'm not blind, just seeing it through
You take my life just for the thrill
I'll take tonight and die on this hill
I always will

[Verse 2]
I know that I look stubborn and patient
But you wrote the book, I just took a page out
To be loved, to be loved and nothing more
And you kept your word, do you want a medal?
The way that someone leaves this world is all just levels
Tell me now, oh, tell me now

[Chorus]
I'll take my pride, stand here for you
No, I'm not blind, just seeing it through
You take my life just for the thrill
I'll take tonight and die on this hill
I always will

I'll be here the whole night
I'll be here 'cause I care
Yeah, I know you don't care
I know nothing could matter
God, I wish something mattered to you

[Chorus]
I'll take my pride, stand here for you
No, I'm not blind, just seeing it through
You take my life just for the thrill
Well, I'll take tonight and die on this hill
I always, always, I always will
