Melanie Martinez - Lights (The Voice Performance) lyrics

And I had a way then, losing it all on my own
And I had a heart then
But the queen has been overthrown
And I'm not sleeping now
The dark is too hard to beat
And I'm not keeping now
The strength I need to push me

You show the lights that stop
Me turn to stone and shine it when I'm alone
So I tell myself that I'll be strong
And dreaming when they're gone

'Cause they're calling, calling
Calling me home
Calling, calling, calling home
You show the lights that stop
Me turn to stone

Noises and I play within my head
Touch my own skin and hope


That I'm still breathing
And I think back to when my
Brother and my sister slept
In an unlocked place
The only time I feel safe

You show the lights that stop
Me turn to stone you shine it when I'm alone
So I tell myself that I'll be strong
And dreaming when they're gone

'Cause they're calling, calling
Calling me home
Calling, calling, calling home
You show the lights that stop
Me turn to stone

Ooh ooh ooh ooh
