Lyrics
I've been running, I've been falling, I've been trying just to feel something
Everybody talk, but they don't really know me
Painting on a smile like it's supposed to hold me
City lights flash and the night feels empty
Trying to find peace, but the pain won't let me
Every single memory, hidden like a jet stream
But I ain't going back, gotta live the next dream
Cause everybody's got a reason they're running from
The hurt that they hide, the place they belong
But I ain't trying to live with the lights turned off
I've been down too long, too long
When the lights go out, I don't wanna be alone
I just need somebody who won't let me go
Hold me when I'm breaking, stay when it gets cold
When the lights go, when the lights go out
Tell me that you're right even when it gets rough
Tell me that you'll shine when I ain't enough
Take me through the dark when I'm full of doubt
When the lights go, when the lights go out
Night drive, windows down, thoughts racing
Trying to outrun what my heart's been facing
Every lip scar is just another conversation
About the battles I fought, yeah the nights I was shaking
But I'm still here, still standing, still breathing
Still trying to find that feeling I believe in
And maybe you're the reason I can see the sunrise
Even on the days when it's hard to love life
Cause everybody's got a reason they're running from
The hurt that they hide, the place they belong
But I ain't trying to live with the lights turned off
I've been down too long, too long
When the lights go out, I don't wanna be alone
I just need somebody who won't let me go
Hold me when I'm breaking, stay when it gets cold
When the lights go, when the lights go out
Tell me that you're right even when it gets rough
Tell me that you'll shine when I ain't enough
Take me through the dark when I'm full of doubt
When the lights go, when the lights go out
Stay close when the world gets heavy
