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
