Keeping The Light On

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 grew up out in the desert

Where I learned to thrive alone

Lived in L.A. till it broke me, oh, I rolled on like a stone

Found a girl and found a job

Just like they say good people do

But every now and then I turn to salt inside her wounds

Oh, and all I know

Is we can't, we won't let go

Keeping the light on, the light on, ain't easy

Keeping the fight on for so long is hard to do

For all the times you feel the weight

There might just be a better way

Won't deny that it feels so hard

When the night gets so dark

Keep keeping the light on

And I'm trying to get better

Every day I chase the Sun

And I pray it's worth the heartache when I'm done

Oh, and all I know

Is we can't, we won't, let go

Keeping the light on, the light on, ain't easy

Keeping the fight on for so long is hard to do

For all the times you feel the weight

There might just be a better way

Won't deny that it feels so hard

When the night gets so dark

Keep keeping the light on

Keep keeping the light on

Try to give a little

Try to be a little

Try to see a light in the dark

Try to give a little

Try to be a little

Try to see a light in the dark

Try to give a little

Try to be a little

Try to see a light in the dark

Try to give a little

Try to be a little

Try to see a light in the dark

Oh, we can't, we won't, let go

Keeping the light on, the light on, ain't easy

Keeping the fight on for so long is hard to do

For all the times you feel the weight

There might just be a better way

Won't deny that it feels so hard

When the night gets so dark

Keep keeping the light on

Try to give a little

Try to be a little

Try to see a light in the dark

Oh-oh, oh

Try to give a little

Try to be a little

Try to see a light in the dark
