 (strumming is like down-down-down)
Something  isn't right,
 I'm losing  faith in everything  I  know,
 What do I know?
 You told  me I should fight,
 Not be self  destructive thinking  I should  go,
 what do i know?
Stay  away  from me!
 I need  you too badly,
 And it's tearing  me apart!
 Won't you stay  a part  of me?
 I need  you too badly,
 I need you too badly,
 I need you too  badly.
 I wrote  this song tonight,
Just  to feel like I  was not alone,
 But I am alone.
I  don't have the right  to ask  for your
 Forgiveness  on the phone,
 Cause I am alone.
Stay  away  from me!
 I need  you too badly,
 And it's tearing  me apart!
 Won't you stay  a part  of me?
 I need  you too badly,
 I need you too badly,
 I need you too badly.
 This feelings  never ending,
 And I  can't keep pretending,
 That it's you  I want,
 That it's you.
 I'm not okay,
 I'm not okay.
Stay  away  from me!
 I need  you too badly,
 And it's tearing  me apart!
 Won't you stay  a part  of me?
 I need  you too badly,
 I need you too badly,
 I need you too  badly.
 End on
