Turn Out The Lights - Patrick Watson

Can someone turn out the lights

I’m not so sure everybody’s seeing right

Can someone turn out the lights

I’m not so sure everybody’s seeing right

Even in the way you try

We can see that your make up was running late last night

Has it been a while

Since you laid beside each other and watched the walls fall down

It’s just a smiling crime

Everybody’s got a little ugly hanging around

So why don’t you come down

Sometimes you need a friend so you can see it right

In the best of times

In the best of times

In the best of times

Doesn’t mean that you can’t change your mind

Meant the world to me that you took the time

So we rise

So we rise

Into the arms of a gentle breeze

So we rise

And carry each other with some love sometimes

So we rise

Don’t you know we were born a little blind

So we rise

Sometimes you need a friend so you can see it right

So we rise

It’s just the skin we were born in
