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
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
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
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
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
Lucky stars, and fairy tales
I'm gonna bathe myself, in a wishing well
Pretty scars from cigarettes sight
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 still leave that light on
