Keep The Lights On by Close Your Eyes

Everything that I despise
Consumes me when I (1)__________ my eyes
I don't know if I can change the way I feel
Despite the (2)__________ that you have shone
The (3)________ has become (4)________ I know
And I am fighting to find my way out of it
I am trying so (5)________ to forget
This constant aching feeling that stirs inside my chest
The fear in me always drags me down
The guilt I feel will not let me get up again
I'm crushed by the weight
I was younger then, careless and innocent
I never thought my words (6)__________ (7)________ so much
But I am older now, I should be screaming out
So why is it that I (8)________ my (9)__________ shut?
Why do I try so (10)________ to forget
The forgiveness that is in your hands
And the (11)__________ in your words?
You are calling me to seek you and find rest
And (12)__________ behind the emptiness
That holds me in the dark
That holds me in the dark

I hope you can hear me
I'll keep singing this song
Even if there's no air left
And dirt (13)__________ up these lungs
Please (14)________ the lights on
I am trying to make it home
The sun is sinking
But I won't go (15)________ with it
Please keep the lights on
I am (16)____________ to make it home
The sun is sinking
But I won't go (17)________ with it

The sun is sinking
The sun is sinking
The sun is sinking
I won't go (18)________ with it
