You say 'Baby, turn the light out'
But I can see the sun crying in your smile now
Yeah, you used to be the glitter in the dirt
And now you say it's just you feel a little dusty
Why didn't anybody tell you that it ain't easy?
Life don't imitate reality TV
I can see you tugging on a wishbone
Angling the outcome, components will only break the rope (?)
But don't you know that it beats my heart to black and blue all over
When you cry those tears like paper cuts and iodine
When you were here
I couldn't find the words
To say I'll be your lullaby singer
I won't let you down
I promise to try and try and
Lullaby, lullaby
Lullaby, lullaby-
Gone to get a shotgun (?)
I don't know if I can get you out of this one
But you can call me up at twenty after midnight
I'll stay on the line to talk you down and tuck you in
Eyes wide open, brighter than the candles on a cake
You wasted wishes on when you were okay
When you were here
I couldn't find the words
To say I'll be your lullaby singer
I won't let you down
I promise to try and try and
Lullaby, lullaby
Lullaby, lullaby
La-la-Lullaby (x6)
Baby turn the light out
I can see the sun crying in your smile now
Yeah, you used to be the glitter in the dirt
And now you say it's just you feel a little dusty
When you were here
I couldn't find the words
To say I'll be your lullaby singer
I won't let you down
I promise to try and try and
Lullaby, lullaby
When you were here
I couldn't find the words
To say I'll be your lullaby singer
I won't let you down
I promise to try and try and
Lullaby, lullaby
Lullaby, lullaby
Baby turn the light out (x4)
