Don't Leave a Light On Songtext
von Faint Halos

It′s a pleasure to see you
Even when you're only in my head
I try to stay out of trouble
I try to remember what you said
I tiptoe through the house when I wake up
And everything might just be enough

Remember the weekends
When we′d act out all your dreams
Was I just too convincing?
Was I stealing every scene?
So hard to stop when it felt so much like me
I did my best to earn my infamy

We can only really love the ones we can't set free
Tell 'em all that it was me

Stepped into the fray, I don′t know what I was afraid of
But I know I′m not afraid anymore
Please don't leave a light on for me
Please don′t leave a light on for me


It's like a foreign movie
I keep my eyes glued to the screen
So I can follow the story
So I know what it all means
I never learned the language, but I know the way it sounds
And I know that when I hear it now I go down, down, down, down

We can never understand the ones we can′t control
So tell them all you didn't know

Stepped into the fray, I don′t know what I was afraid of
But I know I'm not afraid anymore
Please don't leave a light on for me
Please don′t leave a light on for me

I was half insane and now I don′t know why I waited for so long
To make it all the way
Please don't leave a light on for me
Please don′t leave a light on for me

We could talk it out
Get wound up on the couch
Let it echo down the hall
Right back to where you are
But if I came back round
We'd break down by the morning
The beautiful morning

Please don′t leave a light on for me
Please don't leave a light on for me


I was half insane and now I don′t know why I waited for so long
To make it all the way
Please don't leave a light on for me
Please don't leave a light on for me
