Light Lyrics by Emma Klein

Versions of Me

2022

ON THE FIRST DAY I SAT DOWN AND POURED A GLASS OF WINE
AND I SAW SOME PEOPLE ARGUING ONLINE
ON THE SECOND, I ASKED QUESTIONS
THAT I HADN’T ASKED IN A LONG TIME

AND ALL THE BOXES THAT I STACKED UP ALL AROUND MY HEAD 
STARTED FALLING UNTIL THERE WAS NOTHING LEFT
I KEEP WAITING FOR THE WEEK, I'LL HAVE A DAY OF REST
I JUST DON'T KNOW HOW TO FIND A WAY TO LET

CHORUS
LET THERE BE LIGHT
BEEN STUMBLING THROUGH THE SHADOWS OF MY OWN MIND
I BEEN TRYING TO FLIP A SWITCH THAT I CAN’T FIND
CLOSING MY EYES, LOSING MY MIND
WHY CAN'T I LET THERE BE LIGHT

I’VE SEEN THE BRIGHT SIDE
FOR AS LONG AS I CAN REMEMBER LOOKING BACK
BUT I GOTTA FIND THE BLUE SKY IN THE BLACK
I KNOW THAT ITS OUT THERE
I SWEAR TO GOD, I’M NOT SCARED
THEN I AM

AND NO I CAN'T HAVE ALL THE ANSWERS, BUT I WANT THEM BAD
SOME TIMES I WONDER IF I JUST LIKE STAYING SAD
I DON’T WANT TO WALK ALONE
BUT I DON’T WANT TO HOLD A HAND
I SHUT THE CURTAINS AND I WONDER WHY I CAN'T

CHORUS
LET THERE BE LIGHT
BEEN STUMBLING THROUGH THE SHADOWS OF MY OWN MIND
I BEEN TRYING TO FLIP A SWITCH THAT I CAN’T FIND
CLOSING MY EYES, LOSING MY MIND
WHY CAN'T I LET THERE BE LIGHT

WHY CAN'T I LET THERE BE LIGHT
WHY CAN'T I LET THERE BE LIGHT
WHY CAN'T I LET THERE BE
WHY CAN'T I LET THERE BE
WHY CAN'T I LET THERE BE LIGHT

CHORUS
LET THERE BE LIGHT
BEEN STUMBLING THROUGH THE SHADOWS OF MY OWN MIND
I BEEN TRYING TO FLIP A SWITCH THAT I CAN’T FIND
CLOSING MY EYES, LOSING MY MIND
WHY CAN'T I LET THERE BE LIGHT

WHY CAN'T I LET THERE BE LIGHT
WHY CAN'T I LET THERE BE LIGHT
WHY CAN'T I LET THERE BE
WHY CAN'T I LET THERE BE
WHY CAN'T I LET THERE BE LIGHT
