When the light goes off
And am left with my thoughts
I take a deep breath
As my body hits the bed
It’s time to let it all out
Tell you everything
Cry till my body spasms with sobs
Oh let me feel your warm embrace
When the light goes off
And my friends are gone
I don’t feel alone
Because I have you
You’re my addiction
The antidote to the storms of life
The fuel to keep me moving
The reason not to die
If I don’t have you
Then I’m afraid
What happens to me
When the light goes off
