When the Lights Go out Lyrics

I won't be here for too much longer
I just hope that I can reach the end
But I'm
I'm getting more and more negative
Towards everyone about everything
Never have I felt so cynical
I'm so critical
How did I grow to be this weak?

When the lights, when the lights go out
I can shut, shut my body down
'Cause I can't rest on my regrets
Or hide the fact that my mind's a mess
When the lights, when the lights go out
And I'm sat drowning in self-doubt
I'm still begging for change some day, somehow.

There's an aching in my chest
I'm drinking more and eating less
And I know I'm a little unstable
But I'm
I'm getting more and more negative
Towards everyone, about everything
Never have I felt so cynical
I'm so critical
How did I grow to be this weak?

When the lights, when the lights go out
I can shut, shut my body down
'Cause I can't rest on my regrets
Or hide the fact that my mind's a mess
When the lights, when the lights go out
And I'm sat drowning in self-doubt
I'm still begging for change some day, somehow.

Sometimes I wish I could go back south
To the beach and room in my parents' house
Listening to Deja Entendu
Don't you dare throw this all away
Don't you leave back for the bay
Don't you dare throw this all away
Don't you dare...

When the lights, when the lights go out
I can shut, shut my body down
'Cause I can't rest on my regrets
Or hide the fact that my mind's a mess
When the lights, when the lights go out
And I'm sat drowning in self-doubt
I'm still begging for change some day, somehow.
