Speaking in an interview Tim revealed the inspiration behind the song:
I wrote most of “Someone to Stay” when I was on a missions trip in Cambodia. Seeing poverty and brokenness around me to that scale was really eye-opening and made me realize that nobody should ever have to be alone like that. I...
[Intro]
You were alone left out in the cold
Clinging to the ruin of your broken home
Too lost and hurting to carry your load
We all need someone to hold
[Verse 1]
You've been fighting the memory all on your own
Nothing washes, nothing grows
I know how it feels being by yourself in the rain
We all need someone to stay
We all need someone to stay
[Chorus]
Hear the fallen and lonely cry out
Will you fix me up, will you show me hope?
The end of the day and we're helpless
Can you keep me close, can you love me most?
[Verse 2]
You've drunk it down and you've spat it out
Nothing tastes like the things you had
So tear it off, why don't you let them go?
We all need someone to stay
We all need someone to stay
[Chorus]
Hear the fallen and lonely cry out
Will you fix me up, will you show me hope?
The end of the day and we're helpless
Can you keep me close, can you love me most?
[Post-Chorus]
(Oh-oh-oh, woah, oh-oh-oh, woah)
Can you keep me close, can you love me most?
(Oh-oh-oh, woah, oh-oh-oh, woah)
Can you keep me close, can you love me most?
[Verse 3]
You were alone left out in the cold
Clinging to the ruin of your broken home
[Chorus]
Hear the fallen and lonely cry out
Will you fix me up, will you show me hope?
The end of the day and we're helpless
Can you keep me close, can you love me–
[Bridge]
Huh-ah, huh-ah
Huh-ah, oh-woah
[Chorus]
(Huh-ah, huh-ah)
Hear the fallen and lonely cry out
Will you fix me up, will you show me hope?
(Huh-ah, oh-woah)
The end of the day and we're helpless
Can you keep me close, can you love me most?
[Post-Chorus]
(Oh-oh-oh, woah, oh-oh-oh, woah)
Can you keep me close, can you love me most?
(Oh-oh-oh, woah, oh-oh-oh, woah)
Can you keep me close, can you love me most?

“Making this song was really special,” Bettinson tells Billboard. “It was one of those magic moments where everything just came together and the song immediately made sense; and we got to record a children’s choir on it, which has always been a dream of mine.”
