Morning breaks the kettles on I'm not awake there's no alarm The hills aflame behind me As the ash seeps through my window
My mother's voice spills out of me like vinegar Seems I just can't stop My fight a burning beacon Dare I let it shine this bright
If you could take my youth And hold it in your hand Then you'd understand It falls through it's just sand No sense in holding on The currents much too strong Extinguish all those silly dreams
Did you turn out the light You wonder through the day Did you turn out the light
Did you turn out the light You wonder through the day Did you turn out the light Did you turn out the light
I used to be consumed for hours Without consequence Burning at both ends With blasphemous indifference Yes just like you I was just like you
If you could take my youth And hold it in your hand Then you'd understand It falls through it's just sand No sense in holding on The currents much too strong Extinguish all those silly dreams Did you turn out the light You wonder through the day Did you turn out the light
Did you turn out the light You wonder through the day Did you turn out the light
Did you turn out the light Did you turn out the light
