Leave the Light On Lyrics by Sleep On It

Overexposed

2017

[Verse 1]
This is the worst way to say I'm sorry
The best way to say I'm not
It's hard to relate when every word you say
Can't trace back to what you thought
[Pre-Chorus]
Every day you can slip away the memories
Did you think that the pain would wash away?
Either way you keep changing up your story
The memories never stay
[Chorus]
You say that you're happy when I'm gone
But I know that I'm the light that you left on
[Verse 2]
This is the best way to say I'm trying
The worst way to say you're not
Every mistake and word I say
Gets thrown back without a thought
[Pre-Chorus]
Every day you keep trying to say what's best for me
Did you think you could stay another day?
Either way you keep changing up your story
But know this time you'll never stay
[Chorus]
You say that you're happy when I'm gone
But I know that I'm the light that you left on
You say that you're happy when I'm gone
But I know that I'm the light that you left on
[Bridge]
All alone in a crowded room
I don't need this, you don't need this
This is something I've yet to prove
I don't need this, I don't need you
[Outro]
All alone in a crowded room
I don't need this, you don't need this
This is something I'll have to prove
I don't need this, I don't need you
All alone in a crowded room
(You say that you're happy when I'm gone)
I don't need this, you don't need this
This is something I'll have to prove
(But I know that I'm the light that you left on)
I don't need this, I don't need you
All alone in a crowded room
(You say that you're happy when I'm gone)
I don't need this, you don't need this
(But I know that I'm the light that you left on)
I don't need this, I don't need you
