insha gill - leave the lights on lyrics
[verse 1]
i’ve been hiding in the softer angles
turning sideways when you look too close
holding back the parts that might unravel
what if you see through all i’ve composed?
[pre+chorus]
but i’m tired of the distance
tired of the perfect pose
[chorus]
so leave the lights on
i want you to see me
every scar, every fault, every fear i carry
leave the lights on
don’t let me disappear
into the safe and shallow
i’m standing here
leave the lights on
[verse 2]
i’ve been careful with my broken pieces
showed you only what i thought you’d keep
but love can’t live in half confessions
and i can’t breathe this edited deep
[pre+chorus]
i’m done with the pretending
done with the armor i don’t need
[chorus]
so leave the lights on
i want you to see me
every scar, every fault, every fear i carry
leave the lights on
don’t let me disappear
into the safe and shallow
i’m standing here
leave the lights on
[bridge]
if you’re gonna love me
love the truth, not the performance
i’m laying down my defenses
this is who i am
raw and real and hoping
you’ll still reach for my hand
[final chorus]
leave the lights on
i need you to see me
every scar, every fault, every fear i carry
leave the lights on
i won’t disappear
no more safe and shallow
i’m standing here
leave the lights on
(leave them on)
leave the lights on
(i’m right here)
[outro]
leave the lights on
