"Lights Out" lyrics

On the empty streets of this nowhere town
The melting shadows fade
And the dark is creeping up on me again

In-between these sheets where I laid you down
I tried to find some rest
So I reach out for the switch but why pretend

'Cause I can't turn the lights out now
I'll see your face
No, I can't turn the lights out now
My heart will break

'Cause everything I see
Will end up killing me
All over, all over again
So I can't turn the lights out, turn the lights out
(Turn the lights out)

There's a clock that stopped ticking by the bed
The second you were gone
And it feels just like my heart stopped beating too

'Cause it's hard to keep those promises
I made when I was strong
Now I'm haunted by the ghost of you

And I can't turn the lights out now
I'll see your face
No, I can't turn the lights out now
My heart will break

'Cause everything I see
Will end up killing me
All over, all over again
So I can't turn the lights out, turn the lights out
(Turn the lights out)

It's so hard holding on
It's so hard that you're gone
It's so hard holding on
Don't you know, don't you know

I can't turn the lights out now
I'll see your face
No, I can't turn the lights out now
My heart will break

'Cause everything I see
Will end up killing me
All over, all over again
So I can't turn the lights out, turn the lights out
(Turn the lights out)
So I can't turn the lights out, turn the lights out
(Turn the lights out)
