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 light that you have shone
The (2)________ 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 fear in me always drags me down
The (3)__________ I feel will not let me get up again
I'm crushed by the weight
I was (4)______________ then, careless and innocent
I (5)__________ thought my words 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 (6)________ is in your hands
And the mercy in your words?
You are calling me to seek you and find rest
And leave behind the emptiness
That (7)__________ me in the dark
That holds me in the dark
I hope you can hear me
I'll keep (8)______________ this song
Even if there's no air left
And dirt fills up these lungs
Please keep the (9)____________ on
I am trying to make it home
The sun is sinking
But I won't go down (10)________ it
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
The sun is sinking
The sun is sinking
I won't go down with it
