Somebody had to be the first one to say it's over
Somebody had to break and tell the truth
Somebody had to try and be brave
Somebody's gotta take the blame
Somebody had to leave
I just hate it had to be me

When the lights go out and I struggle with the silence
Haunted by the quiet 'til morning comes around
But I know someday on the other side of crying
It won't feel the way it does right now
When the lights go out

Lonely has a way of making you wonder
Make you second-guess the things you left behind
I had to walk away from that revolving door
It only takes me right back to where I was before
And who has time for that
Tell me who has time for that

When the lights go out and I struggle with the silence
Haunted by the quiet 'til morning comes around
And I know someday on the other side of crying
It won't feel the way it does right now
When the lights go out

It's gonna be okay soon we'll both be sleeping safe and sound
When the lights go out and I struggle with the silence
Haunted by the quiet 'til morning comes around
And I know someday on the other side of crying
It won't feel the way it does right now
When the lights go out
