[Verse 1]
Slipped through the front door without a key
It’s always unlocked when you’re waiting for me
And I had to wait 'til your roommates were sleeping
They'd give you a hard time that I was over
[Verse 2]
Your eyes light up, always the same
Just like I was taking you on a first date
But you have no reason for feeling this way
[Chorus]
So don’t let me be your guiding light
'Cause that was never my power
I’m not the sun, there’s no guarantee
I burn out hard like a spark
[Chorus]
So don’t let me be your guiding light
'Cause I’ll keep you lost in the dark
I’m not the sun, there’s no guarantee
'Cause I burn out hard like a spark
Yeah, I burn out hard like a spark
