Living with the Lights Out

[Intro]
Never woulda thought
We could fall this far
How could we forget
Just who we are?
We don’t sleep at night
Like phantoms lost in the hall
You used to speak with your eyes
Now you don’t see me at all

[Chorus]
We’ve been livin’ with the lights out
In the stumbling, oh the mess we’re in
Any spark would be a lighthouse
Up against the wind, barely flickerin’
Just a breath from you can fan the flame
All the memories still remain
Let me hold you while we’re in the dark for now
Living with the lights out

Living with the light—

[Verse 1]
You gotta know what you can lose
Before you see your cards
You gotta take a step back
Before you count your stars
Hope will keep you alive
But hope can break your heart
You gotta know what you can lose
Right from the start

[Chorus]
We’ve been livin’ with the lights out
In the stumbling, oh the mess we’re in
Any spark would be a lighthouse
Up against the wind, barely flickerin’
Just a breath from you can fan the flame
All the memories still remain
Let me hold you while we’re in the dark for now
Living with the lights out

[Verse 2]
Your love dances like a shadow
I can’t embrace
I don’t wanna win the battle
With tears on your face
Hold me like I’m fragile
You can’t replace
I need you, I need you
Tell me you need me too

[Chorus]
We’ve been livin’ with the lights out
In the stumbling, oh the mess we’re in
Any spark would be a lighthouse
Up against the wind, barely flickerin’
Just a breath from you can fan the flame
All the memories still remain
Let me hold you while we’re in the dark for now
Living with the lights out

Living with the lights out
