Lyrics
[Verse 1]
(10,9,8,7,6,5,4,3,2,1)
[Verse 2]
I had a way then losing it all on my own
I had a heart then
But the queen has been over thrown
And I'm not sleeping now
The dark is too hard too hard to beat
And I'm not leaping now
The strength I need to push me
[Verse 3]
You show the lights that stop me turn me to stone
You shine it when I'm alone
And so I tell myself that I'll be strong
And dreaming when they're gone
'Cause they're calling, calling, calling me home
Calling, calling, calling home
[Verse 4]
You show the lights that stop me turn me to stone
You shine it when I'm alone
Home
[Verse 5]
Noises, I play within my head
Touch my own skin
And hope that I'm still breathing
[Verse 6]
And I think back to when
My brother and my sister slept
In an unlocked place
The only time I feel safe
[Verse 7]
You show the lights that stop me turn me to stone
You shine it when I'm alone
And so I tell myself that I'll be strong
And dreaming when they're gone
'Cause they're calling, calling, calling me home
Calling, calling, calling home
[Verse 8]
You show the lights that stop me turn me to stone
You shine it when I'm alone
Home
[Verse 9]
Yeah, hee
[Verse 10]
Lights, lights, lights, lights
Lights, lights, lights, lights
Lights, lights, lights, lights
Lights, light
[Verse 11]
You show the lights that stop me turn me to stone
You shine it when I'm alone
And so I tell myself that I'll be strong
And dreaming when they're gone
'Cause they're calling, calling, calling me home
Calling, calling, calling home
[Verse 12]
Yeah, you show the lights that stop me turn me to stone
You shine it when I'm alone
Home
Lights, lights, lights, lights
Lights, lights, lights, lights
Lights, lights, lights, lights
Light
No, no, no
Now no, no, no
No
[Verse 13]
Hello everyone, how are you?
