Please Leave a Light On When You Go

How fast can a heart shatter

Before you're walking on splinters?

Your head aches just to feel what it knows

Please leave a light on when you go

How can you fix something

That you can't touch without hurting?

The lesson you've learned is leaving you dumb

Please leave a light on when it's done

Standing high above the flood line

Watching all your belongings go by

How can you see the ending

If you're lost at the beginning?

The day hides all that the night left behind

Please turn a light on when it dies
