Shakespear's Sister – Stay Lyrics 15 years ago
I think that this song is about death and about someone asking someone not to leave them.

if this world is wearing thin
and you're thinking of escape
i'll go anywhere with you
i'll do anything it takes [just wrap me up in chains]

I think that its saying that if you are going to die take me with you

you'd better hope and pray
that you'll be safe [ that you make it safe]
in your own world [back to your own world]
you'd better hope and pray
that you're gonna awake [that you wake one day]
back in your own world [in your own world]
[cause when you sleep at night they don't hear your cries]
[in your own world]
[only time will tell if you can break the spell]
[back in your own world]

Its saying that you better pray that they are going to come back to 'this world' which is the land of the living. Its saying that you bettter wake up in this world rather than the world of the dead.

I also think this because in the music video its her with a person whos on a bed with all this medical stuff around them.
