Leave The Light On

(Album: Leave The Light On - 2003)

I've seen myself with a dirty face
I cut my luck with a dirty ace
I leave the light on
I leave the light on

Daddy ain't that bad he just plays rough
I ain't that scarred when I'm covered up
I leave the light on

Little girl hiding underneath the bed
Was it something I did must be something I said
I leave the light on
Better leave the light on

I wanna love I wanna live
I don't know much about it I never did

17 and I'm all messed up inside
I cut myself just to feel alive
I leave the light on

21 on the run on the run on the run from myself
From myself and everyone
I leave the light on
I leave the light on
Better leave the light on

Cause I wanna love I wanna live
I don't know much about it I never did
I don't know what to do
Can the damage be undone
I swore to God I'd never be what I've become

Lucky stars and fairytales
I'm gonna bathe myself in a wishing well
Pretty scars from cigarettes I never will forget
I never will forget

I'm still afraid to be alone
Wish that the moon would follow me home
I leave the light on

I ain't that bad I'm just messed up
I ain't that sad but I'm sad enough

Cause I wanna love I wanna live
I don't know much about it I never did
I don't know what to do
Can the damage be undone
I swore to God I'd never be what I've become

God bless the child with the dirty face
Who cuts her luck with a dirty ace
She leaves the light on
I leave that light on
