Turn The Lights Back On Sözleri

Enough with the mood lighting, I'm not in the mood

Apparently I don't have the right attitude

Do you think this is a sense, maybe that's what we need

Then we could channel some of the dead air between you and me

Dry your new age tears, let's stick to the facts

Don't need your phony pearls of wisdom, you can have them back

Don't want your earnest sympathy, keep it to yourself

If I'm gonna be alone I'd rather be my myself

CHORUS

Turn the lights back on

Turn the lights back on

That trusting girl you knew is dead and gone

She's dead and gone

You've read The Road Less Traveled

You think you know everything

A little knowledge can be such a dangerous thing

If you'd look in the mirror I could tell you what you'd see

It'd be a real education, tuition's free

How could you just sit there all those years

And watch me throw away

Everything I wanted and worked for

And the dreams I couldn't even say

Didn't it ever occur to you to once ask me why

I guess it didn't, and I think that's maybe worse than a lie

CHORUS

I was deaf, dumb and blind when I came to you

I trusted you, you said I was supposed to

But you couldn't understand me, you couldn't even see

Your hand before your face, much less me

So you told me all this stuff about you, pretended it was about me

And I'd have been better off with nothing

CHORUS (2x)
