Lyrics
Leave 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.
This is the worst way to say I'm sorry
The best way to say I'm not
It's hard to relate when every word you say can't trace back to what you thought
Every day you can flip away the memories
Did you think that the pain would wash away?
Either way you keep changing up the memories never stay
You say that you're happy when I'm gone
But I know that I'm the light that you left on
This is the best way to say I'm trying
The worst way to say you're not
Every mistake, every word I say
Gets thrown, left without a thought
Every day you can try to say what's best for me
Did you think you could stay another day?
Either way you keep changing up your story
But know this time you'll never stay
You say that you're happy when I'm gone
But I know that I'm the light that you left on
You say that you're happy when I'm gone
But I know that I'm the light that you left on
All alone in a crowded room
I don't need this, you don't need this
Is there something I've yet to prove?
I don't need this, I don't need you
All alone in a crowded room
I don't need this, you don't need this
Is there something left to prove?
I don't need this, I don't need you
All alone in a crowded room
(You say that you're happy when I'm gone)
I don't need this, you don't need this
Is there something left to prove?
(But I know that I'm the light that you left on)
I don't need this, I don't need you
All alone in a crowded room
(You say that you're happy when I'm gone)
I don't need this you don't need this
Is there something left to prove?
(But I know that I'm the light that you left on)
I don't need this, I don't need you
