Leave The Light On

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
I went from zero to minus ten
I drank your wine then
I stole your man
I leave the light on
I leave that 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, yeah I leave that light on
Little girl hiding underneath the bed
Was it something I did?
Must be something I said
I leave the light on, I better leave the light on

'Cause I wanna love
And I wanna live
Yeah, I don't know much about it
Yeah, and I never did, no, no

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

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

Lucky stars and fairy tales
I'm gonna bathe myself in a wishin' well
Pretty scars from cigarettes
I never will forget, I never will forget

I'm still afraid to be alone
Wish that moon would follow me home
I leave the light on
Yeah, I leave that light on
And I ain't that bad I'm just messed up
I ain't that sad but I'm, I'm sad enough

'Cause I wanna love
I wanna live
No, I don't know much about it
And I never did
I don't know what to do
Can the damage be undone?
I swore to God that I'd never be what I've become

I leave that light, I leave that light, I leave that light on

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
