Hit The Lights

I can’t take the silence here on my own
Time to face the music you ain’t comin’ home
Swore that we could make we were never givin’ up
Didn’t take too long to see that I’m all outta’ luck

Hit the lights and cue the water works
Watch the world go by like no one knows it hurts
There’s freedom somewhere out there but I’m stayin’ in tonight
So before you shut the door on me go on hit the lights

To love you drove me crazy to leave you broke my heart
Guess I thought you’d save me but I made it pretty hard
Last words you spoke to me still ringin’ in my mind
Never stay so long that you can’t leave it all behind

Hit the lights and cue the water works
Watch the world go by like no one knows it hurts
There’s freedom somewhere out there but I’m stayin’ in tonight
So before you shut the door on me go on hit the lights

Maybe you’ll regret it but I kinda’ think you won’t
You don’t seem to miss me and I probably shoulda’ known
