"Light Switch" lyrics

"Light Switch"

Was put in a round room and told to sit in the corner
While they washed my brain with a dirty rag
Was given a hammer and told to build a fortress
With walls impossible to penetrate

You're the only thing I need
And you've become the only thing that keeps me breathing
Without you I'd be
In a dark place with no light switch
An open wound without a stitch
Maybe now you will understand

No matter how stable your foundation may seem
Everything is crashing down on me
With paper cuts on finger tips
Blackened eyes and broken lips
Forever wounded it's hard to tell

You're the only thing I need
Whether I fail or succeed
Within my blindness, you're all I see
The morning fog, sun burns away
A predator's eye without its prey
Maybe now you will understand

I won't quit on you
No, I won't quit on you
I won't let it end
Ever
Ever
Ever
Ever
