Turn the Lights Out Lyrics by J*Davey

New Designer Drug

2011

[Verse 1]
It's like a chokehold
Don't wanna love it like I do so
I guess I'm just in limbo
'Cause it's enough to make it seem OK
When I need it right away
Hey, say no
Don't even do it if I say so (Say so)
I'm not a lover of your day show
It's just another little game i play
Quick now, pull the shade
[Pre-Chorus]
And here goes nothing
Wishing for someone
Waiting for something
Down in despair
So if there's one thing
I really need some
Give me a reason to care, yeah
[Hook]
I don't wanna see it, so
Turn the lights out
I don't wanna be it so
Turn the lights out
Turn the lights out
Turn the lights out
I don't wanna see it so
Turn, turn
I don't wanna be it, so
Turn the lights out
I don't wanna free it, so
Turn thе lights out
Turn the lights out
Turn the lights out
I don't wanna see it so
Turn, turn
[Verse 2]
I wanna take hold
I'm losing faith or maybе all hope
I feel it coming so I let go
It's not enough to wanna be so flash
'Cause I'm too afraid to ask
Oh, who knows? (Who knows)
I should be happy but i'm so low (So low)
If I could operate my vehicle
I'd throw caution to the ledge
On a run for the edge of losing my head
[Pre-Chorus]
And here goes nothing (Here goes nothing)
Wishing for someone (Wishing for someone)
Waiting for something (Waiting for something)
Down in despair
So if there's one thing (If there's no thing)
I really need some (I really need some)
Give me a reason to care, yeah
[Hook]
I don't wanna see it, so
Turn the lights out
I don't wanna be it so
Turn the lights out
Turn the lights out
Turn the lights out
I don't wanna see it so
Turn, turn
I don't wanna be it, so
Turn the lights out
I don't wanna free it, so
Turn the lights out
Turn the lights out
Turn the lights out
I don't wanna see it so
Turn, turn
[Bridge: mixed parts of Verse 1 + 2]
(It's like a chokehold)
It's like a chokehold
(I'm losing faith or maybe all hope)
I'm losing faith or maybe all hope
(I guess I'm just in limbo)
It's not enough to wanna be so flash
When I need it right away
[Pre-Chorus]
If there's one thing
I really need some
Give me a reason to care, yeah
[Hook]
I don't wanna see it, so
Turn the lights out
I don't wanna be it so
Turn the lights out
Turn the lights out
Turn the lights out
I don't wanna see it so
Turn, turn
I don't wanna be it, so
Turn the lights out
I don't wanna free it, so
Turn the lights out
Turn the lights out
Turn the lights out
I don't wanna see it so
Turn, turn
[Hidden track: Interlude]
