Lights - Single Version

Lyrics

I had a way then
 Losing it all on my own
 I had a heart then
 But the queen has been overthrown
 And I'm not sleeping now
 The dark is too hard to beat
 And I'm not keeping up
 The strength I need to push me
 You show the lights that stop me turn to stone
 You shine them when I'm alone
 And so I tell myself that I'll be strong
 And dreaming when they're gone
 'Cause they're calling, calling, calling me home
 Calling, calling, calling home
 You show the lights that stop me turn to stone
 You shine them when I'm alone
 (Home)
 Noises, I play within my head (head)
 Touch my own skin and hope they'll still be there
 And I think back to when
 My brother and my sister slept
 In another place the only time I feel safe
 You show the lights that stop me turn to stone
 You shine them when I'm alone
 And so I tell myself that I'll be strong
 And dreaming when they're gone
 'Cause they're calling, calling, calling me home
 Calling, calling, calling home
 You show the lights that stop me turn to stone
 You shine them when I'm alone
 (Home)
 (Light, lights, lights, lights)
 (Light, lights, lights, lights)
 (Light, lights, lights, lights) Home, home
 Light, lights
 You show the lights that stop me turn to stone
 You shine them when I'm alone
 And so I tell myself that I'll be strong
 And dreaming when they're gone
 'Cause they're calling, calling, calling me home
 Calling, calling, calling home
 You show the lights that stop me turn to stone
 You shine them when I'm alone
 Home, home
 (Light, lights, lights, lights)
 (Light, lights, lights, lights) Home, home
 Lights, lights...
 
 I had a way then
 Losing it all on my own
 I had a heart then
 But the queen has been overthrown
 And I'm not sleeping now
 The dark is too hard to beat
 And I'm not keeping up
 The strength I need to push me
 You show the lights that stop me turn to stone
 You shine them when I'm alone
 And so I tell myself that I'll be strong
 And dreaming when they're gone
 'Cause they're calling, calling, calling me home
 Calling, calling, calling home
 You show the lights that stop me turn to stone
 You shine them when I'm alone
 (Home)
 Noises, I play within my head (head)
 Touch my own skin and hope they'll still be there
 And I think back to when
 My brother and my sister slept
 In another place the only time I feel safe
 You show the lights that stop me turn to stone
 You shine them when I'm alone
 And so I tell myself that I'll be strong
 And dreaming when they're gone
 'Cause they're calling, calling, calling me home
 Calling, calling, calling home
 You show the lights that stop me turn to stone
 You shine them when I'm alone
 (Home)
 (Light, lights, lights, lights)
 (Light, lights, lights, lights)
 (Light, lights, lights, lights) Home, home
 Light, lights
 You show the lights that stop me turn to stone
 You shine them when I'm alone
 And so I tell myself that I'll be strong
 And dreaming when they're gone
 'Cause they're calling, calling, calling me home
 Calling, calling, calling home
 You show the lights that stop me turn to stone
 You shine them when I'm alone
 Home, home
 (Light, lights, lights, lights)
 (Light, lights, lights, lights) Home, home
 Lights, lights...
