I've seen myself, with a dirty face I've cut my luck, with a dirty ace I leave the light on I leave the light on I went from zero, to minus ten I drank your wine, then I stole your man I leave the light on I leave that light on
Daddy ain't that bad, he just plays rough I ain't that scarred, when I'm covered up I leave the light on Yeah, I leave the light on Little girl hiding underneath the bed Was it something I did? Must be something I said I leave the light on I better leave the light on
[Chorus 1] 'Cause I wanna love And I wanna live Yeah, I don't know much about it And I never did - no, no
17, and I'm all messed up inside I cut myself, just to feel alive And I leave the light on And I leave the light on 21 on the run, on the run, on the run From myself, from myself and everyone I leave the light on I better leave the light on
[Chorus 2] 'Cause I wanna love And I wanna live Yea, I don't know much about it And I never did I don't know what to do Can the damage be undone? I swore to God that I'd never be What I've become
And lucky stars, and fairy tales I'm gonna bathe myself, in a ocean well Pretty scars from cigarettes I never will forget - I never will forget
I'm still afraid, to be alone Wish that the moon would follow me home I leave the light on Yeah, I leave that light on
I ain't that bad, I'm just messed up I ain't that sad, but I'm sad enough
[Chorus 2] 'Cause I wanna love I wanna live No, I don't know much about it And I never did I don't know what to do Can the damage be undone? I swore to God that I'd never be What I've become
I leave that light… I leave that light… I leave that light on
God bless the child, with the dirty face Who cuts her luck, with a dirty ace She leaves the light on I leave that light on
