Lyrics

Killswitch

[Intro]

Li-li-light ba-ba-back on

Li-li-light on, on

[Verse 1]

I'm tangled up, no strings attached

You gave your heart but now I think you want it back

You are my ocean and the tide

It's little wonder why

I'm drowning in your eyes

The power's out, we lost it all

I fallen hard you pulled the rug and watched me fall

Now you're dropping calls

I think were breaking up

Got my love on stand-by

[Chorus]

Why'd you hit the killswitch on my heart?

Circuit break a love we had to start

Boy, just flick the killswitch on my heart

Can you turn my lights back on?

Turn my lights back on, on?

[Post-Chorus]

Li-li-light ba-ba-back on

Li-li-light on, on

[Verse 2]

You've blown a fuse

I see the smoke

Your love, my life

I think we've made a mess of both

Electricity is what we know

I chase the light that you just never show

[Chorus]

Why'd you hit the killswitch on my heart?

Circuit break a love we had to start

Boy, just flick the killswitch on my heart

Can you turn my lights back on?

Turn my lights back on, on?

[Post-Chorus]

Li-li-light ba-ba-back on

Li-li-light on, on

Li-li-light ba-ba-back on

Li-li-light on, on

[Bridge]

Flick the, flick the killswitch on my heart

Flick the, flick the killswitch

Flick the, flick the killswitch

Shut me down when the power the go out

Shut me down when the power the go out

Shut me down when the power the go out

Power go out, power go out

Shut me down when the power the go out

Shut me down when the power the go out

Out, out

[Chorus]

Why'd you hit the killswitch on my heart?

Circuit break a love we had to start

Boy, just flick the killswitch on my heart

Can you turn my lights back on?

Turn my lights back on, on?

[Outro]

Boy, just flick the killswitch on

Flick the killswitch on

Flick the killswitch on my heart
