| Beth Hart – Leave The Light On Lyrics | 14 years ago |
|
I seen myself with a dirty face, I cut my luck with a dirty ace I leave the light on I went from zero to minus ten I drank your wine then I stole your man I leave the light on, I leave that light on. she doesnt feel good enough, never felt like she was worth more than zero.. when she drank she went out with men who had relationship to feel she was worth.. she feels safe with the light on Daddy ain't that bad he just plays rough I ain't that scarred when I'm covered up I leave the light on Little girl hiding underneath the bed was it something I did Must be something I said I leave the light on, better leave the light on. she loves her dad and she feels she would betray her dad so she minimizes what she went through what her dad did to her. she doesnt want to admit what he did to her so to help herself not feel hurt she covers herself in away putting herself aside. She blames herself and asking what she did to cause her dad to abuse. She feels safe with the light on. I wanna love I wanna live I don't know much about it I never did 17 and I'm all messed up inside I cut myself just to feel alive I leave the light on 21 on the run on the run on the run from myself She knows what she wants, she wants to live life to the fullest she wants to love and wants to be loved she wants to live her life she doesnt know how to live but knows she wants to be herself and live life she feels she never lived life, at 17 she must have realized her life was I dont like the word damage, hurt.. to feel pain she multilates at 21 she knew she kept the light on and she ranaway from herself, maybe getting high, numbing herself not to feel From myself and everyone I leave the light on, I leave the light on Better leave the light on. she runaways from herself and everyone still leaves the light on in away she knows and have hope too in her life, she knew when she says better leave the light on Cause I wanna love I wanna live I don't know much about it I never did, I don't know what to do, can the damage be undone I swore to God that I'd never be what I've become Lucky stars and fairy tales I'm gonna bathe myself in a wishin' well Pretty scars from cigarettes I never will forget, I never will forget I'm still afraid to be alone wish that moon would follow me home I leave the light on I ain't that bad I'm just messed up I ain't that sad but I'm sad enough God bless the child with the dirty face who cuts her luck with a dirty ace She leaves the light on, I leave that light on she knows she wants a better life than she has and wants love and to live life she had hope so kept the light on, the light gave her hope. although she doesnt know how to live life she knows she wants it yet doesnt know how to live life and doesnt know how to go about it to get what she wants. She wants to know if pain will ever go away and asking it the damage that caused her to be messed up in her life can ever be removed, healed, recovered. Growing up she promised to God she would never become like her dad or mother, yet she did become like her dad or mother, and she isnt proud of it. Lucky stars and fairy tales like she considers others to be lucky the way she sees others living life and fairy tales too since fairy tales are not real, she considers them lucky. To get rid of her feeling of being dirty, to feel clean she knows she needs to bathe herself and when she says in a wishing well, here she knows she needs to have hope. she knows that her scars are pretty, yet comi ng from pain and the dirt she felt. she knows she will never forget what happened between her and her daddy. she knows she cant be alone and afraid of being alone in the dark. she knows her fears. she also knows she isnt bad, since ppl quickly judge others, she knows she has issues that may cause her to be like she is bad but really she isnt. She knows she is more than sad, depressed. Her being adult, woman she loves the child she was and knows that God loves a child she was, and that God loves children and blesses them. She still leaves the light on, she is working on herself and have hope Jeannie |
