Lyrics

Turn out the Lights

Can someone turn out the lights?
I'm not so sure everybody's seeing right

Can someone turn out the lights?
I'm not so sure everybody's seeing right

Even in the way you try
We can see that your make up was running late last night

Has it been a while?

Since you laid beside each other and watched the walls fall down

It's just a smiling crime
Everybody's got a little ugly hanging around
So why don't you come down?
Sometimes you need a friend so you can see it right
In the best of times
In the best of times
In the best of times

Doesn't mean that you can't change your mind

Meant the world to me that you took the time
So we rise

So we rise

So we rise

Into the arms of a gentle breeze
So we rise

And carry each other with some love sometimes
So we rise

Don't you know we were all born a little blind?

So we rise

Sometimes you need a friend so you can see it right
So we rise

Don't you know?
It's just the skin we were born in
So we rise

So we rise
