Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Every time I'm with it alone
It picks me up
You just send me down
I can feel it rushing under my skin
You're a cage, won't you let me in?
[Verse 2]
On my toes
Lock the door
Pretty face
Through the walls
Don't know if I'd be so sure again
Oh
[Verse 3]
(Yeah) My eyes are still burning red
(Yeah) So turn the lights out
(Yeah) You're not so hard to forget
(Yeah) With all the lights out
[Verse 4]
Every time I'm stuck in the ground
Spin me 'round, won't you spin me 'round?
You're a void, a crack in the mirror
See me now, if you could see me now
[Verse 5]
You slipped through
The night
Then walked out
Skin tight
But you don't matter that much to me
No, you don't matter that much to me
[Verse 6]
(Yeah) My eyes are still burning red
(Yeah) So turn the lights out
(Yeah) You're not so hard to forget
(Yeah) With all the lights out
[Verse 7]
So turn the lights out
Just turn the lights out
[Verse 8]
(Yeah)
(Yeah)
(Yeah)
[Verse 9]
(Yeah) My eyes are still burning red
(Yeah) So turn the lights out
(Yeah) You're not so hard to forget
(Yeah) With all the lights out
