lyrics

You chewed on my innocence
From the day we met
Should've felt your indecent
Pleasure for distress
I ricocheted and it only made me sad
Tell me, do you even have a heart?

I'd trust you with all my troubles
And I'd hope you'd do the same
But you played me like a Sim
And only laughed at all my pain
I felt confused but what else am I to say?
I'm used to being used anyway

With the lights off
Everything just feels right
Cause when the light's off
I don't need to lie
You know I'm not ok
And I know you won't be nice
So I'll keep the lights off
Like we're all in the dark

I wonder if I hurt your ego
Wonder if you had a cause
Or were you just going to trick me
No matter what the cost
At least it was fun for someone
At least you'd tell me when you were done

Can't say you weren't honest
Can't say you never lied
Only thing I know for sure
Is that you took me by surprise
I never see it coming
Now I never trust my eyes
They see the good in people left behind

With the lights off
Everything just feels right
Cause when the light's off
I don't need to hide
You know I'm not ok
And I know you won't be nice
So I'll keep the lights off
Like we're all in the dark

I'm desensitized
By all the monsters
Underneath my bed
Telling me I'm better off dead

With the lights off
Everything just feels right
Cause when the light's off
I don't need to lie
You know I'm not ok
And I know you won't be nice
So let's keep the lights off

With the lights off
Everything just feels right
Cause when the light's off
I don't need to hide
You know I'm not ok
And I know you won't be nice
So I'll keep the lights off
Like we're all in the dark
The dark, the dark
