Verse 1:
We left a trail of bodies/
Tracing spirals ‘round each other/
I’d waste my time chasing your friends around/
While you toyed with my brothers/
And I don’t know how we ended up like this/
No time to swallow my pride ‘cause I’m too busy trying to make you jealous/
But instead of all this/
Spinning and lying/
Running and crying/
How about I just stand by you/
Chorus:
How about I stand by you/x4/
Verse 2:
We both think: “I’ll blink if you do”/
Till then we’ll just circle/
Telling ourselves that it’s out of our control/
But we both see right through/
‘Cause it’s so simple/
Just let me stand by you/
Chorus.
Bridge:
But it’s so simple/
Just let me/
Just let me/
Just let me stand by you/
Chorus.
