Used to keep me a secret
That nobody else could know.
Made me feel so alone
But I'll be damned if I let it show.

Now it's like you hardly know me
So I've been busy minding my own.
But I'm finding your fingerprints
In some places they don't belong.

Careful 'cause the lights come on without a warning.
People seem so confused when they take home what they earn.

Left a dark place behind him
And hell was just a bottle away.
But heaven's what he sold himself
At the end of a long day.

Surprised him when she came home early
Caught him with his hand in the jar.
He tried to protest
But he was already done for.

Messes in the dark make headlines every morning.
Everyone makes mistakes like it's the only way we learn.

Careful 'cause the lights come on without a warning.
People seem so confused when they're caught with some bullsh*t.
Messes in the dark make headlines every morning.
Everyone makes mistakes like it's the only way we learn.
