How Do I Go by Melodie Yvonne

How do you stop feeling bad unless you stop feeling at all
How do you keep out the evil without putting up concrete walls
How do you stay comfortably numb without staying comfortably dumb
I’m guessing I need to find balance before I just get up and run

How do I stay, and how do I go
I don’t know
I don’t know
No no, I don’t know

I’ve ran out of places to hide and now I don’t know what to do
My hearts broken all of the time and I just can’t stop feeling blue
There’s this ache in the pit of my soul and I know I can’t stay here with you
I’m lost and with nowhere to go, and I’m scared now of what I might do

How do I stay, and how do I go
I don’t know
I don’t know
No no, I don’t know

How do I stay, but how do I go
I don’t know
I don’t know
No no, I don’t know
