Stay Away (It's Like That)

I should have known By the way that you say nothing much at all I could have guessed By the messages you send, but never call But most of all I could have seen it in the colors of your hair 'Cause they don't appear in nature Except to warn you of the danger, and I know that you don't care But I want you to stay (stay) I want you to stay (stay) I want you to stay (stay Stay the hell away from me I could have guessed If I'd liked you a little less, I probably could have recognized the signs But I don't mind When your roommate barges in and lists off every single name but mine But that's the way it goes, you'll always be the last to know 'Til someone comes and slaps you on the face But it's okay, 'cause if you're at a loss for words I know exactly what I'd say I'd tell you to stay (stay) I'd tell you to stay (stay) I'd tell you to stay (stay) Stay the hell away from me I want you to stay (stay) I want you to stay (stay) I want you to stay (stay) Stay the hell away from me And despite all the silence, I heard about it anyway Was it me or with Mike who stayed for the night? But only Joe made it through to the day And that was the summer, that's just life in L.A You're either screening your calls or begging for someone to stay So stay (stay) Why don't you stay? (Stay) I want you to stay (stay) Stay the hell away from me Why can't you stay? (Stay) I want ya to stay (stay) I just want you to stay (stay) Stay the hell away from me Just stay the hell away from me Stay the hell away from me Just stay the hell away from me Just stay the hell away from me
