Keep The Lights On by Close Your Eyes
Everything that I despise
Consumes me (1)________ I close my eyes
I don't (2)________ if I can change the way I feel
Despite the light that you have shone
The (3)________ has become what I know
And I am fighting to find my way out of it
I am trying so hard to forget
This constant aching feeling that stirs inside my chest
The (4)________ in me always (5)__________ me down
The (6)__________ I feel will not let me get up again
I'm crushed by the weight
I was younger then, careless and innocent
I (7)__________ thought my (8)__________ could (9)________ so much
But I am (10)__________ now, I (11)____________ be screaming out
So why is it (12)________ I (13)________ my (14)__________ shut?
Why do I try so hard to forget
The forgiveness (15)________ is in your hands
And the mercy in (16)________ words?
You are calling me to seek you and find rest
And (17)__________ behind the emptiness
That holds me in the dark
That holds me in the dark
I hope you can (18)________ me
I'll keep singing this song
Even if there's no air left
And (19)________ fills up these lungs
Please (20)________ the lights on
I am trying to make it home
The sun is sinking
But I won't go down with it
Please keep the lights on
I am (21)____________ to (22)________ it home
The sun is sinking
But I won't go down with it
The sun is sinking
The sun is sinking
The sun is sinking
I won't go down with it
