I seen myself with a dirty face I cut my luck with a dirty ace I leave the light on I leave the light on I went from zero to minus ten I drank your wine then I stole your man I leave the light on I leave that light on Daddy ain't that bad he just plays rough I ain't that scarred when I'm covered up I leave the light on I leave the light on Little girl hiding underneath the bed Was it something I didMust be something I saidI leave the light on, I better leave the light on' Cause I wanna love And I wanna live I don't know much about it And I never did17 and I'm all messed up inside I cut myself just to feel alive I leave the light on I leave the light on21 on the run, on the run, on the run From myself, from myself and everyone I leave the light on, I leave the light on Better leave the light on' Cause I wanna love And I wanna live I don't know much about it And I never did I don't know what to do Can the damage be undone I swore to God that I'd never be What I've become Lucky stars and fairy tales I'm gonna bathe myself in a wishin' well Pretty scars from cigarettes I never will forget, I never will forget I'm still afraid to be alone Wish that moon would follow me home I leave the light on I leave that light on I ain't that bad I'm just messed up I ain't that sad But I'm sad enough' Cause I wanna love And I wanna live I don't know much about it And I never did I don't know what to do Can the damage be undone I swore to God that I'd never be What I've become I leave the light, I leave the light I leave the light on God bless the child with the dirty face Who cuts her luck with a dirty ace She leaves the light on I leave that light on
