[00:00.00]Keep The Lights On - Close Your Eyes
[00:05.28]Everything that I despise
[00:07.47]Consumes me when I close my eyes
[00:09.59]I don't know if I can change the way I feel
[00:14.35]Despite the light that you have shone
[00:16.65]The dark has become what I know
[00:19.10]And I am fighting to find my way out of it
[00:25.10]I am trying so hard to forget
[00:29.72]This constant aching feeling that stirs inside my chest
[00:34.22]The fear in me always drags me down
[00:38.91]The guilt I feel will not let me get up again
[00:45.78]I'm crushed by the weight
[00:49.04]I was younger then careless and innocent
[00:54.16]I never thought my words could mean so much
[00:58.91]But I am older now I should be screaming out
[01:02.66]So why is it that I keep my mouth shut
[01:07.03]Why do I try so hard to forget
[01:11.66]The forgiveness that is in your hands and the mercy in your words
[01:15.90]You are calling me to seek You and find rest
[01:21.03]And leave behind the emptiness that holds me in the dark that holds me in the dark
[01:45.41]I hope you can hear me
[01:49.03]I'll keep singing this song
[01:51.66]Even if there's no air left and dirt fills up these lungs
[01:59.96]Please keep the lights on
[02:04.02]I am trying to make it home
[02:08.33]The sun is sinking
[02:10.45]But I won't go down with it
[02:14.52]Please keep the lights on
[02:18.65]I am trying to make it home
[02:23.08]The sun is sinking
[02:25.26]But I won't go down with it
[02:44.33]The sun is sinking
[02:47.59]The sun is sinking
[02:51.35]The sun is sinking
[02:55.34]I won't go down with it
