Light You Up
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
I’m never gonna give up
Remember what abuse did
It’s time you look at facing
As if you in anyway understood
It always lowered me to downsize
It always lowered my faith
But it’s in the corner rising next to me
It’s in the corner like it upstage
I can’t explain the way I feel inside
Maybe because it’s
I’m through
Yeah, you heard me, so I
Yeah, you heard me, so I
(So I light you up)
You can’t admit you’re poison
Go run and hide
Maybe because it’s
Fuck you
Yeah, you heard me, so I
Yeah, you heard me, so I
(I’m gonna light you up)
I said I wouldn’t fail you
It’s something sorry couldn’t sell you
A slow rain, a time bomb
Disconnected, it won’t erase what I’d done wrong
In no way is it worth
Losing everything I am, including these words
Your heart in my hands
I’m sick as all my secrets, that’s why this hurts
I can’t explain the way I feel inside
Maybe because it’s
I’m through
Yeah, you heard me, so I
Yeah, you heard me, so I
(So I light you up)
You can’t admit you’re poison
Go run and hide
Maybe because it’s
Fuck you
Yeah, you heard me, so I
Yeah, you heard me, so I
(I’m gonna light you up)
‘Cause they’ll put me in the crazy house
And they put me in a crazy farm
And I’m never going to get back out
I’m never ever going to treat you wrong
Get down to the earth and the people
Get down to the earth in your bed
That’s where I’m gonna go
That’s where I’m gonna go up in my motherfucking head
So tell your mom, tell your dad, tell your family
That I’m beyond this unreasonable sinking ship
‘Cause I never took the time, never took the time, never took the time to learn
All about these things you call a relationship
I can’t explain the way I feel inside
Maybe because it’s
Fuck you
Yeah, you heard me, so I
Yeah, you heard me, so I
(So I light you up)
You can’t admit you’re poison
Go run and hide
Maybe because it’s
I’m through
Yeah, you heard me, so I
Yeah, you heard me, so I
(I’m gonna light you up)
