Keep The Lights On by Close Your Eyes

Everything that I despise
Consumes me when I (1)__________ my eyes
I don't (2)________ if I can change the way I feel
Despite the light (3)________ you (4)________ shone
The dark has (5)____________ what I know
And I am fighting to find my way out of it
I am (6)____________ so hard to forget
This constant aching (7)______________ (8)________ stirs inside my chest
The fear in me always (9)__________ me down
The guilt I feel will not let me get up again
I'm crushed by the weight
I was younger then, careless and innocent
I never thought my (10)__________ (11)__________ mean so much
But I am (12)__________ now, I (13)____________ be screaming out
So why is it that I keep my mouth shut?
Why do I try so hard to forget
The (14)______________________ that is in your hands
And the mercy in (15)________ words?
You are calling me to seek you and (16)________ rest
And leave (17)____________ the emptiness
That holds me in the dark
That holds me in the dark

I hope you can hear me
I'll keep singing this song
Even if there's no air left
And dirt (18)__________ up these lungs
Please keep the lights on
I am trying to make it home
The sun is sinking
But I won't go down (19)________ it
Please keep the lights on
I am trying to (20)________ it home
The sun is sinking
But I won't go (21)________ with it

The sun is sinking
The sun is sinking
The sun is sinking
I won't go down (22)________ it
