I seen myself with a dirty face

I cut my luck with a dirty ace

I leave the light on

I leave that light on

I went from zero to minus ten

I drank your wine then

I stole your man

I leave the light on

I leave that light on

Daddy ain't that bad he just plays rough

I ain't that scarred when I'm covered up

I leave the light on I leave that light on

Little girl hiding underneath the bed

Was it something I did

Must be something I said

I leave the light on better leave the light on

Cause I wanna love

And I wanna live

I don't know much about it

I never did

17 and I'm all messed up inside

I cut myself just to feel alive

I leave the light on

I leave that light on

21 on the run on the run on the run

From myself from myself and everyone

I leave the light on

Better leave the light on

I wanna love

And I wanna live

I don't know much about it

And I never did

I don't know what to do can the damage be undone

I swore to God that I'd never be what I've become

Lucky stars and fairy tales

I'm gonna bathe myself in a wishin' well

Pretty scars from cigarettes

I never will forget I never will forget

I'm still afraid to be alone

Wish that moon would follow me home

I leave the light on

I leave that light on

I ain't that bad I'm just messed up

I ain't that sad but I'm sad enough

Now I wanna love

And I wanna live

I don't know much about it

And I never did

I don't know what to do can the damage be undone

I swore to God that I'd never be what I've become

Na na na na na na na na

I leave that light on

I leave that light on

God bless the child with the dirty face

Who cuts her luck with a dirty ace

She leaves the light on

I still leave that light on
