Keep The Lights On by Close Your Eyes
Everything that I despise
Consumes me when I close my eyes
I don't know if I can change the way I feel
Despite the light (1)________ you have shone
The dark has (2)____________ 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 (3)________ stirs inside my chest
The fear in me always drags me down
The guilt I feel (4)________ not let me get up again
I'm crushed by the weight
I was (5)______________ then, careless and innocent
I never thought my (6)__________ could mean so much
But I am older now, I should be screaming out
So why is it that I keep my mouth shut?
Why do I try so hard to forget
The forgiveness that is in your hands
And the mercy in (7)________ words?
You are (8)______________ me to seek you and find rest
And leave behind the emptiness

I hope you can hear me
I'll keep singing this song
Even if there's no air left
And dirt fills up these lungs
Please keep the lights on
I am trying to make it home
The sun is sinking
But I won't go down with it

The sun is sinking
But I won't go down with it
The sun is sinking

I won't go (9)________ with it
