"Shoot Out All The Lights" lyrics

You, dancing like a white flame
Making ash of all the good things
Burned into my memory
Holding on, white knuckled history

You, moving like a shadow
I could see ya with my eyes closed
Burning down the churches
Where I was what you worshiped

If I thought I could outrun your memory somehow, then right now

I would shoot out all the lights
If it meant I never had to see your face again
Or tear stains on my lashes
Or another love as it crashes
I would bring down all the stars
Make the sky look like your heart
Painted all over with black
If only it worked like that
Baby I would shoot out all the lights
Shoot out all the lights

I never thought myself naive
But you probably think that of me
I'm still hearing echoes
Everything I wish I didn't know

If I thought I could outrun your memory somehow, then right now

I would shoot out all the lights
If it meant I never had to see your face again
Or tear stains on my lashes
Or another love as it crashes
I would bring down all the stars
Make the sky look like your heart
Painted all over with black
If only it worked like that
Baby I would shoot out all the lights
Shoot out all the lights

Wanna rip up all the memories
Shred the pictures with the history
Don't want to take 'em with me

I would shoot out all the lights
If it meant I never had to see your face again
Or tear stains on my lashes
Or another love as it crashes
I would bring down all the stars
Make the sky look like your heart
Painted all over with black
If only it worked like that
Baby I would shoot out all the lights
Shoot out all the lights
