You Were The Light

Your pretty causes

Make great conversation

While another world is yearning

Painfully for an end

And who will save me now

Now that you are gone

And who will save you from yourself

You were the light

That shone brightly in the night

You were the light

That shone harshly on my life

Think of me when you are weak

Whenever when you are strong

Pretending that I'm okay

Will comfort when you are lost

And who will save me now

Now that you are gone

And who will save you from yourself

You were the light

That shone brightly in the night

You were the light

That shone harshly on my life

Close the door and cry

Or lock it up from the outside

Look down on me from the balcony

And hold the railing tight

And if you changed your mind

Then you are justified

And if you changed your mind

You'd know that you were right

And you will be just fine

The more you knew

The less you wanted to

You made our decisions on your own

And left me without a choice to choose

None of this

Will ever haunt you now

Since there is no one else

Accounting for your cruelty but me

You will see no consequence

And though I am not to blame

I suffer all the same

And who will save me now

Now that you are gone (now that you are gone)

And who will save you from yourself

You were the light

That shone brightly in the night

You were the light

That shone harshly on my life

You were the light

That flashed and left me in the dark

You were the light

The only light I'll ever know

You were the light

You were the light

You were the light

You were the light
