lyrics

The light is out
And I’ve got nowhere to go
The light is out
And I’m all alone now
Can you take me home now?
Or to a better place

This place is haunting
This place is daunting
I’m trying to find a way out of this mess
This place is haunting
This place is daunting
I’m trying to find a way out of this mess

I remember all the good days
I remember when I was cheerful
I remember when everything was going well
But now I’m stuck in hell
I am sitting here in regret
And it feels like we never even met

Don’t place your blame
Don’t bring your shame
Don’t play your game
All for the fame
I don’t wanna know

The light is out
And I’ve got nowhere to go
The light is out
And I’m all alone

This place is haunting
This place is daunting
I’m trying to find a way out of this mess
Can you take me to a better place?
Where I can call my home

So you make no apologies
I’m leaving today
This dark, cold and mysterious world
It’s here to stay
Just take it at a slower pace
New goals to chase
This is a new start
With a new heart

Don’t place your blame
Don’t bring your shame
Don’t play your game
All for the fame
I don’t wanna know

The light is out
And I’ve got nowhere to go
The light is out
And I’m all alone

This place is haunting
This place is daunting
I’m trying to find a way out of this mess
Can you take me to a better place?
Where I can call my home

Mr. Betrayal wasting my time
Why I bet that your life ain’t that fine
And hate will surely
Bring back the misery
That I’ve been fighting against cos it’s time
Time to end

The light is out
And I’ve got nowhere to go
The light is out
And I’m all alone
The light is out
And I’ve got nowhere to go
The light is out
And I’m all alone

This place is haunting
This place is daunting
I’m trying to find a way out of this mess
This place is haunting
This place is daunting
I’m trying to find a way out of this mess
Can you take me to a better place now?
Can you take me to a better place?
Right now!!!
