It’s a long walk back, for the weak ass rat
Hated the ride, I want my dollar back
Why do they hate me? What did I do?
I want so bad to be loved like you

And every night has become a fight
So what am I to do?
I try to put a good face on
I’m a deadly shade of blue
There’s nowhere left to turn
No there’s not a light in sight
I wish that I could turn ‘em on
But I don’t know, where I lost my light
Where I lost my light

I just want, to feel okay
Can’t get there myself, I’ll find another way
Float like a feather, fly like a bird
I just don’t, want it to hurt

Cuz every night has become a fight
So what am I to do?
I try to put a good face on
I’m a deadly shade of blue
There’s nowhere left to turn
No there’s not a light in sight
I wish that I could turn em on
But I don’t know, where I lost my light
Where I lost my light

I got worse than I deserved (I wish I would have lost the nerve)
I wish I would have turned (before I hit the verge)

But every night had become a fight
So what was I to do?
Tried to put a good face on
Was a deadly shade of blue
Nowhere left to turn
No not a light in sight
I wish I could have turned ‘em on
But I don’t know, where I lost my light

Where I lost my light
Where I lost my light
Where I lost my light
