Porch Light Lyrics by Noah Kahan

Noah Kahan – The Great Divide: The Last Of The Bugs (with Artist Commentary)

2026

[Intro]
Mm, mm-mm
[Verse 1]
I would ask you how you've been, it's all over the internet
But, hey, I mean, you knew that after all
If you're looking for an autopsy or a half-assed half-apology
Then I think you picked the wrong time to make this call
It is not irrelevant that you stopped taking your medicine
But I'm giving you the benefit 'cause it's raining out
I'll tell you how the weather is
And you'll slip into some eloquently ramblin' mixed-messaging
I should shut you down
[Refrain]
But it's cold, and it's cold, and it's cold, and it's cold, and it’s cold
And I don't know, I'm alone, I'm alone, I'm alone, I'm alone
[Verse 2]
I hope you tell me that you're winding down
That you lost thе taste to face the crowd
That whatеver made you famous made you sick
That you can only do what pain allows
It ain't up to you to make it out
And there ain't no shame in callin' this thing quits
[Refrain]
But you don't, and you don't, what you don't, and you don't, and you don't
You're a ghost, you're a ghost, you're a ghost, you're a ghost, and you're—
[Chorus]
Poison spreading to my lungs
I ain't holdin' breath, ain't holdin' any faith at all
And I'll pray for you, be in pain for you
I'll leave the porch light on
Heartbroken, each morning when it's me that turns it off
[Post-Chorus]
So it goes, so it goes, so it goes
[Verse 3]
You act like we just sit up here and wait for you to reappear
But, baby, there are bills to pay and your dad's road needs salt
And I try to drown out all the talk, the eyeballs in the parking lot
And tell people it ain't me you want, but I guess you're my fault
[Refrain]
You're a ghost, you're a ghost, you're a ghost, you're a ghost, you're a ghost
And I choke, and I choke, and I choke, and I choke on the—
[Chorus]
Poison spreading to my lungs
I ain't holdin' breath, ain't holdin' any faith at all
And I'll pray for you, be in pain for you
I'll leave the porch light on
Heartbroken, each morning when it's me that turns it off
[Post-Chorus]
So it goes, so it goes, so it goes
[Bridge]
Ooh-oh
[Chorus]
Poison spreading to my lungs
I ain't holdin' breath, ain't holdin' any faith at all
And I'll pray for you, be in pain for you
I'll leave the porch light on
Heartbroken, each morning when it's me that turns it off
[Post-Chorus]
So it goes, so it goes, so it goes
