Turn the Lights On Lyrics

I used to lay frozen

In bed every night

Green light from the smoke detector

Squeeze my eyes so tightly I saw white

Told myself if I was still

Nothing would get me

Started out as superstition

Black out everything I can't unsee

Help me turn the lights on

Hold me like a baby till its dawn

The night feels way too long

Tell me once again that nothing's wrong

Like a magician

Watch me disappear

Crawl into a tiny space

No one else can see me but I'm here

I look in the mirror

Don't like what I see

Nowhere I can run for cover

Everywhere I go I'm still with me

Help me turn the lights on

Hold me like a baby till its dawn

The night feels way too long

Tell me once again that nothing's wrong

I like getting older

The way is the way

Pressing all my pressure points

Breathing in the green and out the gray

If this were a movie

Who would I betray

The person that I used to be

Or the one that's standing here today

Help me turn the lights on

Hold me like a baby till its dawn

The night feels way too long

Tell me once again that nothing's wrong

Help me turn the lights on

Hold me like a baby till its dawn

The night feels way too long

Tell me once again that nothing's wrong
